Installation goes fine but when I try to configure the X server, the PC locks up and will only respond to a hardware reset. Subsequent reboot invokes fsck and shows damage to /dev/hdb3.
What video card? It's prolly not "damage," but ext2 is sensitive to a warm reboot or having the power cut if it can't perform a proper shutdown. ie it's normal. It checks the disk and fixes any wierdness it finds. I've had these types of lock-ups configuring X server if the video card was weakly supported or similar. Try real simple video settings like 800x600 and especially 16-bit instead of 24 or 32 bit color to make sure the system itself works, then get about tweaking the video card set-up. ===== ---- Daniel Woodard __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
