Hi! I'm using Virtualbox 3.08, have several other VMs in it, but cannot boot the Centos 5.4 (i386) DVD far enough to even reach Anaconda... I've tried all the various virtualbox and boot options I can think of and it always sticks in the same place: NetLabel: unlabeled traffic allowed by default NET: Registered protocol family 2 and there it hangs. I've left it for several minutes. I also tried the iso image of 5.3 that I still have. same thing. FWIW, Fedora 12 beta installs fine, no trouble at all. Suggestions, please? -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex at fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- "And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
