Boot the laptop with the CD in it.
At the DSL boot screen, where you would normally type DSL. Hit the F2 key. This will list a lot of the boot options. A good one to try if you're locking up right after the processor message is NOPCMCIA.
So you would enter: DSL NOPCMCIA
Try that and see what happens. If that doesn't work try some of the other "NO" options. You can add them all one right after the other. Once you get it booting then you can start removing them till you find the one that you really need.
Good luck
-------------- ======== Note ========= The DSL Forum Search default is 'OR' If you search for "cat dog" you will get all "cat" posts and all "dog" posts. If you search for "cat AND dog" you will only find results that contain BOTH "cat" and "dog" Add '*' for wildcards, " cat* and dog* "
