I have a tendency to offer the newbie disclaimer, but I've been at Linux
for a while (2-3 years). I suppose I'm no longer a Linux newbie but
still have a lot to learn.
Booting Gnoppix 0.5.5-2 appears to freeze with the following on my
screen:
--- being quote ---
<tux graphic>
gnoppix desktop
Accessing credative CDROM at /dev/scd0...
Total memory found: 191424 kB
Creating /ramdisk (dynamic size=149056k) on shared memory...Done.

Done.
Starting init process.
INIT: version 2.78-gnoppix booting
Processor 0 is AMD Athlon(tm) Processor 847MHz, 64 KB Cache
Starting advanced power management daemon: apmd.

PCMCIA found, starting cardmgr.
cardmgr[70]: starting, version is 3.2.2

FWIW, I'm trying to boot on my laptop (Compaq Presario 1200). I believe
I had a USB mouse plugged in at the time.
I just read in the archives that someone having a boot freeze on 0.6
should just be more patient. How long should I let the screen freeze at
any given point before giving up hope of a complete successful boot?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Jim Ivey
