I have a laptop on which I cannot run any slackware based live cd I've yet tried. The most recent one I have tried is Wolvix. I press enter at the boot prompt and the status bar on the next screen moves almost to the end before the screen goes blank and I am unable to eject the disk witjout restarting the system I cannot enter verbose mode during this time by pressing the f2 key. No errors messages are displayed.
The laptop is a Rock xtreme with centrino duo T7200 processor, 2gb of ram and currently has vista and ubuntu 7.10 dual booted on it.
Vector and goblinx will also not run on this. I know the wolvix disk is not the problem as it runs fine 'live' on my desktop and I have done a hd install from it onto an old compaq laptop.
Any suggestions for confused newbie?
