Hi All,

Yes, the dump was taken from VMWare. I did not want to reboot. So I used a ubuntu live cd to get that info.

Later, I retried installing CentOS 4.2. I opted yes when I was shown this message:

"No hard drives have been found. You probably need to  manually choose  device drivers for the installation to succeed. Would you  like to select  drivers now?"

And then tried one at a time. One of them worked! I was delighted. The installation went on perfectly. No issues at all. But when I attempted to boot into CentOS, there was an issue. The machine hung.

This was the sequence:
*.*
Setting Network parameters ------------ [OK]
Bringing up lookback interface --------

At this point system hangs. Keyboard & mouse do not respond. Control Alt Del does not work. Monitor which was good until this time, starts showing "granules"...

I tried again after turning off router. (I have a broad band connection from Tata Indicom). But it stuck again while "Bringing up loopback interface"

Please help me boot CentOS.

Regards,
Ravi.

This one is important                 ^^^^^^^^
doesn't your system have it?
