I have downloaded this and burned the = image=20 onto cd some months ago but now that i have the new motherboard and = stuff I am=20 wanting to try this lovely o/s out.

Here is my system specification, i = would love to=20 have a simple guide on how to set the following system up and get into = the=20 xfree86 gui.

system specifications:

-Video: Voodoo5 5500 AGP

-NIC: Realtek RTL8029(AS) PCI = Ethernet

-Mother Board: SOYO SY-5EHM/5EH5 = V1.3

-Monitor: Nokia 447XS

-Modem: US.Robotics 33.6K Voice INT=20 PnP

-HD: Western Digital 10GB (don't know = the exact=20 model, but this isn't a problem)

-Keyboard: Acer Ergonomic keyboard = (again, don't=20 know the model, but it's got windows keys on it, i can always review it = if=20

necessary)

there. the cd-rom works fine, infact it = works ok,=20 but i can't get xfree86 to start, so i am sure it might be one of the = listed=20 things that cause the problem?
