I have just completed my first install of Linux, it is version 7.2. I had issues with the installation (red hat was telling me I did have enough ram memory, the system has 256 megs of ram) I set an email to another red hat list and was told the following:
I have to identical configuration with the exception, I have 512 megss of ram. I had the same error message which is due the Linux unable to detect the total memory install in the system. What I did to get around this problem was at the boot prompt, type the following for your system: Linux mem=exactmap [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] After Installation, you will need to add the following to the lilo.conf. (I do not know how to add this to grub, so I would recommend selecting lilo during the installation procedures) prompt timeout=50 default=linux boot=/dev/ida/c0d0 map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b message=/boot/message linear append=" mem=exactmap [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] root=LABEL=/" image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-14 label=linux initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.18-14.img read-only #append="root=LABEL=/" I did what the person said and was able to install the linux operating system, However now what is happening is my gnome desktop crashes with the following error: Application "panel" (process 1151) has crashed due to fatal error (Segmentation fault). Can someone explain what a segmentation fault is and how due I correct this problem?
