Hi Ed, >> Dave, when you get the text screen don't do anything, wait a minute and it >> should continue to boot to the graphical login screen. >> That text screen is not the last thing to pop up. Give it a minute and see >> what happens. HTH
Ok ... gave several minutes, made a cup of tea, gave a few more and decided this wasn't the problem. Thanks 'tho. e> its also worth noting that you may not see any "return" or "echo" of some e> digits when you login with the password. just type it correctly and hit e> ehter. Yes, I have got this far and after entering user and pass I get this: [condyk@localhost condyk]$ What does this mean? I then wait a further several minutes ... nothing. Press enter, get the same message. I actually am thinking my HD is knackered, as it takes for ever to boot even this far and clicks now and again!! But why wouldn't I at least be able to boot, 'tho slowly?
