I am new to linux and tryiing to learn.  I learn best by example but am 
having problems.  I cant install it.
I have slackware version i dont know what and trying to install it on a 2 
year old packard bell(i know they suck) with a DX2 processor.

when i boot the machine using the boot image disk everything appears 
fine.  when i but in the root image the machine gives me a message like:

BIOS32 extention not found.  this version still requires it.  sorry.

could any one give me any idea what this means and how to fix it.
