Another MDK10.0 Crash... but at the end?!


Ok this one has me baffled. I have been using various ditro's of MDK for some time now, however I have never come accross this one... it seems lame too.


At the END of the install.. once everything is done and finished, the machine just freezes. It does this right before it says, congratulations we're done, etc, etc.... I can't figure it out.. the machine is an HP at like 500Mhz... I think ram is at 64mb but I have had it run on far less so I can't believe that is the issue.

Just curious if anyone else has had the same problem. I can try downloading the ISO and going at it again to see if it's a media issue, however curious to see if anyone else is dealing with this...

Thanks!

Yeah, I've had the Mandrake 10 installer crash near the end a few times. I think it was because I wanted it to use Gnome and not install KDE. I think it was crashing setting up the login manager.

Just come across this myself.
Installing on a friends laptop, it freezes in the same spot, I can shut it down and start it up again, it it does forced checks on the HD's (which I dont mind) and finds tons of errors that it correct (which I dont like so much)
KDE was the only installed GUI
It never did this on my box. Wierd

Edit: It does start normally after the two mandatory checks, it's just a little annoying.

Edit again: Just re did it and all I get is the cmd line. I did a 9.2 -> 10.0 upgrade and it claws its way into existance, but the cd's wont mount and networking is a pain.
