Greetings, First, the hardware details:
Notebook computer HP G60-125NR, with AMD Turion-X2, 3G RAM, 250G hd, nVidia 8200M GPU, HDA Intel soundchip.
This machine is already running Ubuntu 8.10. I resized a partition and installed the 64 Studio 3.0 alpha system, without troubles except for one significant error message. The installer reported that there was no kernel available for my hardware and that I could (if I'm an expert) select one later. There is no "later" to select a kernel, so the message is misleading. I opted to install the kernel later, the installation, rolled to its conclusion, and it appeared that I had a new installation of 64 Studio 3.0. I even added the do_initrd=YES to /etc/kernel.conf.
Alas, the system won't load. As soon as it reports "Loading, please wait" that's the end of all activity. The machine is fine, I can reboot with ctl-alt-del, and I still have my Ubuntu partition. But what's happening here ? The installed kernel is 2.6.21-1-multimedia-486, is that what it should be ? Please advise as to what I should try next. :)
Best, dp _______________________________________________ 64studio-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-users
