I have a refurbished x131e.  I pulled the 320G HD and installed an empty 500GB SSD.  From a USB SD I started the x64 NetInstall.

In the install process, I set my location (Detroit), changed the host name, left the drive setup as default.  Then I selected a bunch of software.  I selected the Xfce desktop and a number of items on the right.  About 1500 files and something like 1.23GB download.  I proceeded with the install and set the root password and created my user ID.

The download completed as did the rpms installs.  The kernel build I think completed.  My attention was elsewhere when the system just turned off.

Bip.

Off.

I pulled the USB CD and powered up.  It shut right off.
I powered up again and the kernel selection menu shows for a bit and seems to select the first one.  Then it shuts off.

I have gone through this 2 'step' power up attempt twice.

Now what?  Anyone aware of anything like this?  Should I try the install again, but just pretty much basic Xfce?

Should I download a LiveCD (is there an Xfce one?) and see what I see on about the system and status of the drive?

thanks
