install

Post by irealms »

When installing red hat 9 (came with a linux book), i choose graphical install and it starts loading up all the usual stuff but hangs after my usb2 controller, just stops and does nothing. Any ideas?

Try text mode ;-)

Had same problems with RH9 trying to get to reconize my monitor

( just for installing since i run the RH 9 as a server ) other distros. did not have that problem. Text mode will allow you to install the linux.. however you might still have problems with the usb

Or take out your USB2 controller, (unless its onboard) just for the install.
