I have several compaq boxes running linux (Redhat and Slackware), and
have not seen this problem.
What type of compaq are you using? What hardware is installed?

Subject: linux on a compaq box
Why is it that linux ( whatever version ) doesn't want to install nicely
on
a compaq box.
network card=correct
allocated space=correct
native space=1000Mbs.
swap=70Mbs ( 2 x 32Mbs RAM )
but the problem comes in where the packages i install ( from either
FTP;CD-Rom;Hard Drive ) will only install an amount that is exactly as
big
as my swap partition...?!?!?! then it sends the termination signals...
It
is starting to piss me off slightly..
Any advise ?
Thanx in advance....
