>Release:        TRYING to use 2.2.2 (have CDROM's)
>Environment:
?
>Description:
I cannot get the thing to install...the system boots fine off of the floppy, then goes directly to the kernel config, then freezes at the installation menu
>How-To-Repeat:
turn off the computer, and try to install again...same thing happens...over and over again, on more than just one machine, using more than just one configuration of that system, ie: Cyrix processor didn't work, so tried an Intel...etc.
>Fix:
dunno...that's why I'm writting this, have read all the FAQ's/on-line documents I could find...
