installation problem
 

Hai all,

i am using intel g33/g31 chipset with intel E6750 core 2 duo (2.66GHZ) and 1GB RAM .I want to install red hat enterprise linux 5 or centos 5 but i am having a problem in installing it ,when i am installing the system is hanging at setting up acpi standard resources after initrd.img so please help out if anyone had an idea on the problem.

Thanks in advance

Turn off ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface). Latest distributions of Linux have kernel with ACPI good. Earlier versions had enough ACPI trouble to offer ACPI off during installations. You should find option to set ACPI off for install.
After system is updated to current kernel, ACPI may help adn work well.

My system has Intel T2700, Intel 945 glue & video. Only some ports are not Intel. ACPI is installed but not running. Notebook is quiet & cool, so ACPI is not needed.

I turnoff the Acpi but the problem is not rectified ,I could not install centos 5 or red hat5 or ubuntu 7.04 ,but the intersting thing is it is taking novell suse linux and fedora 7.

Thanks in advance
