I wanted to try installing Fedora 3 on my laptop, so I downloaded the DVD.
I have a compaq armada m300 with 196 mb ram and p3 600 cpu. Not a hell of a powerfull pc, but i wanted to try even so.
It boots fine from the dvd, and i get the usual hit enter to start the graphical installer, or write linux text to install using text mode..
first i try just to hit enter...
then this happens
It probes for hardware, then the whole screen turns white, gradually... taking lets say 5 sec.. when it had become white, it gradually turns black.. and the pc seems to hang.
First i thought it might be X that had some buggy drivers loading during the installer load. but the same thing happens when I try linux text as well.
any idea what causes this?
regards
NH
