Hi Roman and Thomas, I wasn't able to install with acpi=none. When I do this,
the kernel loads but then its no longer able to recognize my DVD drive any
longer. It prompts me to enter disk 1. I went through all the options trying
to get it to recogize the drive again but no go. I am using an IDE DVD drive,
maybe this won't work without acpi??
In any case, I decided to try it again without acpi=none just to make sure it
would still read the drive. It did, and it hung at the same spot "searching for
linux partions." Then I got a phone call so I just walked away and left it
there. I was on the phone for about a half hour and when I came back to my
surprise, it had gone past it! So for me it wasn't completely hung it just
takes a really long time.
Its in the process of installing now. Once I get the install done, maybe I can
try these other steps to collect the data.
