I am trying to install on a Pentium II 300, with an IBM disk drive, Diamond Stealth Graphics card, ensoniq sound card. The system boots up off the CD and after the first screen with the option to change the kernel and then to continue boot, the system appears to discover the hardware but I am then left with a blank screen with just a flashing, large block cursor in the bottom left corner. Anyone see the same/know why ? The same happens when trying the install from dos, or with a floppy.
