Previously, it was running Red Hat 8. I tried to put another distro on it to check it out (College), and when it re-boots, all I get is a blank black screen with GRUB at the top left. So....what have a screwed up? I tried to put Slackware on it as well, went in and used fdisk to re-set partitions and re-format, and still the same. -- J.
