Hello Members,
Starting off with my first question:
What makes the difference in hardware detection between CentOS and SuSe
installations?
I can install the Sun Microsystems JDS (Java Desktop System), which actually
installs Suse Linux without a problem.
When I try CentOS, I get a blank screen. I discovered that if I enter "Linux
nofb", I can get by the "/sbin/loader" point of the install.
The install still hangs when starting X-Windows. Next I will try a "Linux
nofb text" installation. I also tried "resolution=1024x768".
(note, Knoppix 3.7, did not properly detect the hardware and hangs during
installation)
Also, can I some how use the SuSe installed information to install CentOS?
TIA,
David Evennou
