Jim,
Thanks for the heads up. I finally got CentOS to install. I had to run the disk check before I could install (weird). Anyway, it installed just fine. Then I upgraded the kernel and installed the ATI drivers. It works just fine now (but I need a new mouse :) ).
Thanks!
Jeff
Something I forgot to mention last night, your video problemmaybe the ATI chipset. I don't know why, but on all the linux user's emailing lists that I'm on,problems with ATI video controllers come up quite frequently . The video controllers that people seem to be having the best luck with are Nvidia, and SIS. I'm sure that other members of this list know of other video controllers that work also. To the best of my knowledge, the linux distro that seems to support the ATI controllers the best is Mandriva, formerly known as Mandrake Hope this helps Jim On Tue, 2006-05-30 at 07:27 -0400, Jeffrey B.

Good morning,
I hate to bother everyone again, but I'm having some more trouble. I have a new machine with an MSI RS480M2-IL motherboard (ATI Xpress200 chipset) and a Hammer DVD Writer (shows up as a Matshita DVD-RAM SW-9585). I get the CD to start (in text mode - don't know why I can't do VGA or better), and it asks me What type of media contains the packages to be installed. I choose CDROM and then it says:
The CentOS-4 x86_64 CD was not found in any of your CDROM drives. Please insert the CentOS x86_64 CD and press OK to retry.
The funny thing is that this is Disk 1 of x86_64. Any ideas? I've tried a couple of different download sites and I always get the same problem.
TIA!
Jeff
