RE: [expert] Mandrake 7.2 Installation problem

[Milnes Terry SSgt 52LSS/LGLOE]

It starts the initial loading of the kernel checks the ide channels and gets
to hdd = LG CD-ROM CRD8232B or something to that effect and hangs right
there. I have tried the ide0=noautotune ide1=noautotune the ide=33 fixes to
no avail. I have tried a Mandrake 7.1 boot disk to no avail. I have also
tried installing Mandrake 7.1 and running live_update on the cd while in KDE
in Mandrake 7.1 this gets me up to installing the packages but just spins
the hard drives for roughly 20 hours straight. I really would like to get
this working so that I can go onto setting the PC up as my Domain Controller
and Proxy Server. I have read in the alt.os.linux.mandrake USENET newsgroup
that it more than likely is my MVP3 chipset. Is Mandrakesoft possibly
thinking about maybe issuing a different cdrom.img file that takes care of
this problem?
