Subject: Re: newbie
RE-install 4 click desktop, reformat, custom. from CD which autoruns.
already did a media check before, kosher.
a: rescue: hb mounted mnt/sysimage #
-bin /sh-2.05 bh
exit ->reboots
b: askmethod blahh isolinux components: .xml
etc
gnome 2
c: custom, have to click KDE
log _. root/install.log
root/anaconda ks config 1777 Mb 1 hr.32 min
Now 3 files in GRUB not as previous 2
2.4.18.11 smp
garbage on a blue screen
blank popup with yes/no panels, click yes
password authentication fails, several times
turns out it won't have 1024 x 864 only 800-600 when the screen allows any
size.
splash screen got gnome panel below
Konqueror desktop too wide for 800 x 600
things don't work either.
Have a x86 intel Pentium pro Celeron.
also several garbage screens and garbage in the back next panels. Keep on
redoing the enter blahh
screens at great speed. One shows about 40 pixels high with various colours.
OH yes, ctl-alt-backspace now does nothing at all
Since autoinstall had 1024 x 864 before, sounds like the problem could be the
Asrock spectrum7, for
which it has five choices of spectrum 7 and cannot find which version is mine.
See whether the bios has
any info?
Suppose we'll have to install again ! First try another reboot.
REBOOT; the usual run thru jave 2.4.18-11
unclean shutdown before, hhmm
only root
get Konqueror, at least now a "command to get into shell".
all the subscreens to use are too tall to click next, accept etc.
Cconfig warns unstable at risk to use.
Various things cannot access. logout on bottom panel only permits logout, so
command sh-2.02b # typed in "exit"
back to username password
Tried "system", which permits shutdown.
Took 5 runs.
Sounds like yet another install. We'll have to see whether windows now is also
in 800x 600.
Woof.
