I am very new to the linux expierence, it seems like something one can enjoy if you want something else in your operating system,but so far i just had bad luck.
I tried to instal ubuntu 6.06 and 7.04 but both times the system froze before i could even get into the gnome enviroment, and it was not the install cds thats corupted because my friend used the same cds and his worked fine both times.
I also tried openSUSE 10.2, the same thing happend thre aswell, installation goes smoothe but when it has to finilize the installation the system freezes after the initial reboot.
when i run the installation in safe mode the following appears:
Enabling syn flood protection
Disabling IP forwarding
Creating /var/log/boot.msg
System Boot Control: The ssystem has been setup
Skipped features:boot.sched
System Boot Control: Running /etc/init.d/boot.local
Starting syslog services
enabling Hotplug
Coldplug scanning input:
INIT: Entering runlevel 3***
