i tried to install mandriva 2007 powerpack on my dell dimension 2400 and when i boot into the dvd, i don't get any kind of graphical installer... its all text, how do i bring up the graphical install?

 

i pressed alt+f4 when it gets to the install part... and i see..

 

linix agpgart interface v0.101

agpgart: detected an intel 845g chipset.

agpgart: detectd 892k stolen memory.

agpgart: agp aperture is 128m @ 0xe8000000

I have a Dell Inspiron 510m, and all the installers for Mandrake 10.1, Mandriva 2005 and Mandriva 2007 have all been text-only installers, even though other people have had graphical ones from the same DVD. I guess it's just something about the hardware that the installer doesn't like, and it drops down to a default text one instead. It's ok though, it still works.
