Dear, I was trying to install Mandrake Linux 7.2 on my new Dell C800 notebook. I booted the machine and the installer started then i chose the language and the type of installation. However when it asked to to install ot update I chose install since this the first time. After that it dispalyed a message saying configuring PCMCIA and it continued showing this message "hanged". Then I tryed the text installer and showd me the there is a kernel panic and hanged Any Help Thanks
