Hi. I'm trying to install CentOs 4.3 on a "old" server. Cd's are ok, as i am able to use them in another computers.

What happens is that initial text screen shows up (asking if i want to install in text or grpahics mode), but either way all that happens is that i get a cursor blinking on the top left corner for a long period of time.

anything i can try?

What does 'old server' mean for you ? If it's an pentium 1st generation you should go the i586 way. If it's a more recent processor, the normal install should work. What i've already had is that i had to specify the 'nofb' paramater because the vga card didn't support it ...
