I am trying to get SuSE 9 to load on an AMD K6 450 machine. I ran the whole load without a mouse (tried serial, ps2, and usb) recognized. Just tried running Upgrade and when it calls for Disc 2 the machine locks up. Anyone seen this before? Any ideas, please? Thanks! dmc

Make sure your cds are ok. Mine were flaky and I just learned about 1/2 of the files are missing! The dvd works fine. You may try using the dvd and see if that gets you farther. Of course, it could be something simple like apm=off or acpi=off. Indications on mine were that sometimes it would give an error that it couldnt install some file from the cd. How badly it screwed up depended upon how many apps I wanted to install from the beginning. How did I figure it out? compared the contents of the dvd with all those files on the cd's .. Richard
I reloaded with acpi=off and seem to be progressing well ... trying to get the dsl working now ... Thanks! dmc Richard Atcheson wrote:
