Keyboard alarm on AMD system during Slackware 11.0 install.


Just started an install of Slackware 11.0 on my wifes system. After entering the kernel choice and just before the offer of setting up a non-US keyboard, the keyboard alarm starts up and stays on. Even after hitting enter to accept the standard US keyboard (the keyboard remains functional while the alarm is sounding yet the caps lock and scroll lock flash).

I have tried this with the default sata.i and bare.i kernels with the same results.
The md5sums checked out before burning and in k3b's own check. I had no problems installing 11 on my Intel system with this same media.

My wifes system is running an XP 2000 1gig ram 80 gig hard drive. Hard drive passes Seagate diagnostics. Ram check out also.

Oh, yeah. This system is currently running pclos 0.93 and W2K.

I think you should try huge26.s when prompted for a kernel to boot.
