When booting from the burned DVD, the Welcome splash screen appears, and after that the boot menu screen. When I choose to install the beta-release, (and press Esc to see the messages on the console), the install procedure gets as far as this: -------------------------------------------------------------- Loading basic drivers.........................OK Starting hardware detection ...........OK (If...................brokenmodules=driver_name) --------------------------------------------------------------- and after that, the system is powered off instantaneously mostly, or sometimes hangs after the messages ---------------------------------------------------------------- Micro Star International CK804 IDE drivers pata, amd74xx, generic loading pata ---------------------------------------------------------------- When I choose Boot from harddisk, 10.3alpha7 boots OK. When I choose to do a memory test, the test is done OK When I choose to do a firmware test, the system hangs as stated before. System is MSI K8N Master2FAR, two single core opterons, 2 GB mem, 200 GB Maxtor IDE disk, Matrox Parhelia graphics card, Hauppauge WinTV 150 tv-card, Plextor PX 740A dvd writer.
