Linpus Linux Problem

maddutzu · 11-19-2014, 10:12 AM

I got a bit problem when i bought my new laptop Acer Aspire V3-572G-64W2 . When i try to turn it on, the software [Linpus Linux] does not work. It works a little but i take this message [root@localhost /]#

What do I do? How do I make it install the OS?

That is a root console. you can do stuff by typing in commands.

If you are in the install cd, try

Quote:

setup

and press return.

if you are installed, try

Quote:

dmesg

If you bought it and it behaved like that from the start, then you need to take it back and complain.

I made that.

My opinion, based on my experience with previous versions of Linpus, is that you would be better off installing a more complete and up to date distro.

For that machine, you will need to use something like a USB flash drive or an external USB optical drive to install from.

The link below has a pretty detailed review of Linpus Linux Lite. Seems he had the same or similar problem. The only place I've ever seen anything positive about Linpus is at their site, although I haven't looked that hard.
