Hello!
I hope this isn't the wrong list to ask this... Well anyway
Stats:
Pentium III 800Mhz
Abit VH6 133Mhz
Seagate 20Mgb
NVidia Geforce II 32Mb
Sound Blstr. Live!
128Mhz of memory
A basic Lan card (listed as compatible, can't remember it now)
Well I started to install Mandrake (newest), and everything went just fine
until it stated that it's "mounting ramdisk". Then I got a message:
"mounting failed, invalid argument"
"error mounting ramdisk. This shouldn't happen, and I'm rebooting your
system now"
Then it promptly booted my system...
I tried to install a windows install with it (lnx4win), and a normal one.
I have 7Gb free on my second hard disk. BUT I don't have free space on my
primary one, which contains windows (actually theres only 200Mb free
there).
What is the default directory in which to it tries to install it self?
Another fact: I can't install Corel Linux at all. It blurs my screen as if
it woulnd't support my videocard. THUS -> My card IS GeForce II, there was
only "GeForce" on the compatibility list, does "Geforce" mean all of
"Geforce's" or just only "GeForce I"
I would love to have Linux on my computer, but my skill just ran out...
I'm a nerd, but not a Linux guru...
