QUESTION REGARDING DEBIAN LINUX 2.0 INSTALL , IF I SHOULDN´T HAVE ASKED YOU, PLEASE JUST MAIL ME ANY ADDRESS WHERE I CAN ASK, THANKS ----   Dear sir. I´m addressing to you in a desperate look for help. I´m trying to install Debian 2.0 from a DOS partition, preserving my old OS; I´ve downloaded all the files, loadlin loads correctly, the kernel boots, and I get lots of messages on my screen, however, after the partition check that is performed on startup, the computer stays idle. I´ve waited for a LONG time in front of that, but nothing happened. I´ve already experienced something like this, with DOSlinux, it is SO SLOW!!, and I don´t get why. My computer is a P55C 225 MMX with 64Mb RAM, 2HDs(2.5 and 1.1 Gb) running Win98 with the FAT32 filesystem (could that have something to do with my problem??) I´d be very pleased to receive any help you can give. Thank you very much.   PS: THE goal: Linux everywhere!!!   [hYpNoTiK**]__{ KNOWELEDGE is POWER } -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 5.5.5 for non-commercial use <http://www.nai.com> Comment: My key ID, available from keyservers: 0x4D15FA39   iQA/AwUBNdZJTE9jhMpNFfo5EQI0KQCZARMl5rDIqJqhJ+m98g7AVbsZxA8An2ck cme3akimmp4W+Vflv+5uc1YC =ciN7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
