Subject: Re: [dyne:bolic] Athlon probs
I have it working on a GIGABYTE KN6 PCI-E nforce4 Athlon 3500+ 1.5GB
RAM 120GB in 2 drives DVD dual layer burner 17" LCD USB mouse,
gigabyte ethernet, 2 sound cards, laserjet parallel printer,
Analogue TV card, ADSL modem, Dlinked wireless LAN.

I have to use a nest and set the video driver to vesa, otherwise it
locks up, as do all the other versions of Linux going right back to
a 32bit 2.0 kernel, so it's an nforce4 MB bug.

You can press F2 on boot and give the boot option "linux init 2" to
give you a console mode start up, login as "root" "luther"

Have a look at dmesg and /var/log files
You can change the video driver by manually editting /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
Test with "startx" although it might not pick up the menu.

As long as you've created a nest to save the /etc files.
reboot and try again. (Now what was the command line to create a
nest? tashinco or something??)
