Hi everyone! Just downloaded the PCLinuxOS 2011.6 and tried to install from a liveCD. After getting past the BIOS screen and a sentence about isolinux I get the following:
Initializing gfx code. . .
boot:
This will last for several seconds and, if I don't enter anything it will procede as follows:
gfxboot:
initializing gfx code. . .
boot:
forever and ever. If I try and enter anything at the boot prompt it will come back with:
could not find kernel image: [whatever I enter]
I checked the md5sum on the download and it was correct. I tried making a new CD at a slower speed (16x). I downloaded the full monty DVD. Nothing works. Here is my hardware info:
