My first post.....
I d/l'd the distro yesterday as the "live" version and burned the CD.
Works fine on my Pentium 4 system and I was impressed by how much
functionality I had with the default boot. It actually "saw" my Vicam
USB camera, although it couldn't use it. It recognized my
SoundBlaster Audigy card! I didn't expect to have an easy time with
the cam or a printer.
I wanted to load a distro on my old Pentium II 400mhz system (256M ram)
and I wanted to try the "live" distro first. Unfortunately, the BIOS of
that system is not recognizing the setup instructions to boot from a CD
(and I think it did at one time - how did I load Windows 98 or Windows
ME on it?). I tried updating the BIOS with a later version, but it
hasn't seemed to help. The CD drive works fine under an OS.
That system has an ASUS P2B mainboard. Anyone have any experience with
this problem? I am still researching jumpers on the mainboard.
