Hi all, I tried to install DSL on my old PC:

Pentium MMX 166
32MB RAM
HDD 1.5 GB

I created a swap partion and a Linux partion with cfdisk.
I booted DSL but I can run the system only with the failsafe option (without failsafe the keyboard starts flashing and everything freeze...)

Opened a terminal and:
sudo su
dsl-hdinstall
I specified the partition where I want to install the system.
Then I get this message:

An error occurred while creating the filesystem.
Some messages from mkfs:
mkfs.ext2: error while loading shared libraries: libext2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

What to do...?
Thanks in advance.
Bye, Sam.

Don't waste your time and your minds for this problem...

I tried to reboot 4 times and finally I installed DSL.
I think that it was a problem while reading the CD.

Bye, Sam.
