i just downloaded and burned the cd isos for mandrake 10.1, when i try to install it shows the install screen and i press enter, it then does a few things and eventually goes to a screen saying "loading program into memory"
a progress bar moves along to just under 1/2 way and then an error dialog opens saying "fatal error finishing initialisation"
when i view the logs it says
Code:
trying to load /sysroot/tmp/image/install/stage2/mdkinst_stage2.bz2 as a ram disk
mounting /dev/ram3 on /sysroot/tmp/stage2 as a type ext2
fopen(stage1.c:383) failed I/O error
unsetting automatic
btw im a complete n00b to linux and really needs things explained fully, thanks
