Hi, Recently I failed to install Linux on a new PC by Debian installation CD. The booting process stalled after I pressed "Enter" at the first Debian prompt. The system stalled, displaying "Loading" below the prompt line. I have tried a few other Linux live CDs, including Ubuntu live CD and Linux-BBC. All stopped at the same "loading" stage. However, M$ winxp CD works without any problem. So the reason is from the boot method of these live Linux CDs. I guess the first stage, loading boot sector, is fine, since the Debian/Ubuntu logo is displayed properly, as well as the simple prompt and help menu. The second stage, likely loading the Linux kernel stuff, has problem. The machine could not continue to read and load the kernel stuff and stalled.
Your suggestion or opinions on this problem are welcome. Thanks a lot in advance. Cheers, Qian Gong -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
