Hi,

I have installed Redhat 6.2 onto my Acer TravelMate 500T laptop. But
haven't managed to get it working. My problem is this:

1.) the installattion completes with no hassles
2.) after it re-boots to start up linux for the first time, it hangs after
    this line:  'apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flag 0x0f (Driver version1,9); give
me a
    general protection fault, and a stack dump is given as well as some
other hex
    codes

I have tired many stuffs to overcome this:

1.) using seperate partitions for, eg, /, /boot, /usr, /usr/local etc.
2.) using a single partition- / for the installation
3.) using the GUI and text installation
4.) Tried installing Mandrake Linux 6.0 (but the installation had trouble
     writing LILO to the MBR or the first sector of hda1.)

But yet sttill no luck. Here are my specs for the laptop:

->  233 mmx
-> 32mB Ram
-> 3G HD
-> 2mB NeoMagic graphic card
-> Yamaha sound card

Does anything have any suggestions, solutions or work arounds because I've
stucked! Have yet to try and install early version of redhat. Please direct
your assistances to my email address: minh@zeta.org.au or post a reply to
me.

Many thanxs for your help.

Regards, Minh =)
