Having just received my 8.2 I was eager to start working. I decided to go for an upgrade and found out that there where difficulties reading the installed packages of my 8.1 install. It hung. Well, there is always a new install so I decided to go for that. But the new install (tried them all out) also hangs and well there where it starts giving the install possibilities.
Do a clean install. When the CD first boots up, there are 2 things you should do AT ONCE. First is hit the F2 key anc choose your inital resolution. Second, choose the install WITHOUT ACPI! That is, "ACPI off." All should be well from then on. Fred -- Fred A. Miller Systems Administrator Cornell Univ. Press Services fm@cupserv.org, www.cupserv.org
