Guest vitalogy Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Hey everyone I am a fairly seasoned linux user, but I just can't figure this out. I am trying to install Mandrake 10 64-bit version on my new amd64 3200 system. The installation cd boots just fine, and I can get to the first screen. If I hit enter to install, the screen just goes blank and stays that way. If I hit F1, i can get to the screen with the advanced options. All the boot options (linux, vgalo, etc) produce the same problem. If I boot text mode, it starts to load but hangs on the part about the crpytography API.. I am assuming that it hangs on that part when trying to boot the graphical installation as well. Anyone else experience anything like this before?

Ixthusdan Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Checked the usual stuff? Bad burn, bad media, bad iso's? Tried to defeat acpi? What are the system specs? RAID? Any usb stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
