Description of Problem: arklinux installer hangs at the language prompt
screen - mouse and keyboard do not function. tried to use the nousb option as
suggested on the boot screen, but problem persisted. tried to use the "noapic
acpi=off" as suggested and the boot loader responded "Could not find kernel
image: noapic". i don't think noapic is an option, but that is what the
screen suggested. i have used this media to install arklinux on an older
linux test box without any problems. it is failing on a dual PIII 866 abit
VP6 motherboard with 256mb of ram. i have fedora core 1.0 running on this
server without a problem. any suggestions would be helpful as i was looking
forward to running arklinux on a faster system.
