Yes,

I think i'll try Suse 10.3 beta as soon as available. This is I guess my only chance... or doesn anyone know of a live CD using kernel 2.6.22?

Ron

========= Hey Ron, Yes, get the Zenwalk LiveCD 4.6 as it uses the 2.6.21 kernel, which should give you some idea. I just remembered, we only got 2.6.22 with the upcoming release of 4.8. I suppose you could always get the 4.8 beta to try, but that needs to be installed. The LiveCD will provide gparted also, so you can partition your drive. Let me know if you want the 4.8 beta and I'll give you a site to download from, but just follow the link in my sig for LiveCD.

Let me know how it goes!

Cool yup, will try this for sure, thanks :)

Ron

==============

Oh, a thought just struck me too. If when booting the LiveCD appears to hang, leave it to run. I've noticed on Intel machines it has to go through a long period of locating or setting up or something to get going. Not sure what it is about the Intel stuff that causes that, I try to use only AMD if possible and I don't see that happen. There have been a couple of times I quit the boot up because I thought it had locked up, but then realized it only happened with Intel stuff.

Lee Lee,

Okay, i downloaded this live CD but it doesn't go further than the language choice and then the choice to start the "Live CD" either. I only have a choice of "Live CD" and "Live CD with graphics in safe mode" (or something). Whatever i choose, I only see "initrd.gz......................." before my screen goes blank and it gets stuck as if i booted with knoppix or opensuse10.2. Do you got any "magic" boot loader command? Or i don't know what i can do now... i'm stuck...just bought a new PC and i don't wanna get used to Windows Vista now where i finally got linux running even on my office work station. :) Help is still appreciated!
