hi,

i am installing pcqlinux/rhl 7.1 and i encountered the following problem :

my bios does not support more than 1024 cylinders but my hdd is big .. i
changed the /boot partition to keep it under 6.4 gb as suggested in the faqs
.. the installation went off fine but now when i boot , linux hangs at the
message 'installing /eth0' .. i tried using step-by-step confirmation but
then it skips this step and hangs after displaying a black blank screen ...
booting from the boot floppy does the same thing .. :( ... please help me!!!

i have a 40gb hdd of which 75% is for dos/windows and the rest for linux...
i have a pc266 M810 motherboard with 256 mb ram, 1.4gig AMD athlon, gateway
ev700 monitor, 10/100Mbps ethernet card ...

thanks in advance,

regards,

farhan.
