Linux setup problem
 |
Hello everybody.
I have a SIS-based dtk MiBook S52 laptop (SIS chipset, SIS ethernet, SIS vga ...)
I have tried to setup linux on it, but the installer hung up and I can't determine the problem
the distribution I tried are:
1- RedHat
2- open SUSE 10.2
3- Fedora 10
4- Ubuntu 8 live cd
but neither of these dist.. does work
I cannot determine the problem but I noticed the following in Fedora 10:
/tmp as ramfs : and at this point the installer stops
ubuntu live cd:
the progressbar reaches the half then it stops for ever.
please if someone can help me in this problem.
sorry for my bad English.
thanks for any help

Did you check (Slackware) or Debian?. These are also very stable and good distro.
