I allowed it to take it's time for a day and it still just sits : there, : i was wonder what the problem was, my configuration showed everything without conflicts. My computer is an IBM Aptiva with : the basic stuff installed on it. Try disabling ***EVERYTHING YOU CAN*** in the initial kernel config. Then add items on a one-by-one basis. If you have got a sound board - it should go the least.
