Hello all,
I recently replaced the motherboard and CPU of my Pentium II 400 system
with an AMD Athlon 900 running a VIA KT133A chipset motherboard.
Windows loads and detects the new drivers, and with some fiddling, works
fine - so I'm quite confident the hardware itself is installed and
working properly.
However Linux Mandrake 7.2 just stops (no error messages) after `loading
module dependencies [OK]' during bootup.
I had a feeling this might have been to do with Mandrake installing a
Intel Optimized kernel, so I went to use my install CDs. The install
simply pauses during `Please Wait'. Again ,there's no error message
provided.
That the system is failing is fine, but the lack of error messages in
both cases ois fairly poor in my opinion as it makes it difficult for me
and anyone else on this list.
Could anyone please help me? The situation is getting desperate.
Thanks,
Mike
