greetings, We are a couple of new CentOS users here. We have previous experience with RH and FC installations. Now we'd like to move up in the world to CentOS.
We successfully installed the 3-CD set of CentOS-3 on a laptop this weekend. When the script instructed us to remove the installation media and reboot, we did that and then the system hung after text was displayed showing the stopping and restarting of the processes.
(Background: We had to use the nofb option during the installation. I wonder if there's some way to pass that option to the kernel when we reboot, so as to get the final post-installation configuration script to work?)
We think we might have a functional CentOS laptop now, but it's just hanging somewhere in the reboot sequence because of problems with the framebuffer and/or X.
Has anyone had a problem like this before? (and solved it? :-) )
-- TIA, TT
