DSL won't work.Forum: X and Fluxbox Topic: DSL won't work. started by: TheOneWithTheGun Posted by TheOneWithTheGun on Aug. 14 2006,18:06
Over these past 2 months(or a bit less) I have been downloading and trying LOTS of Linux distros(about 15-20).None of them worked,sadly for me.Then I ran into DSL and when I saw on the site that its only 50MB and runz on Pentium 300Mhz and 32MB I was like "yay!Finally!".Then I put my DSL CD in my drive and boot from it and it doesn't work.Now,Wwhen I press enter at boot a blank screen appears and the "caps lock" and 'scroll lock" LED begin to flash.Nothing happens een if you wait. So I try to make the "lowram" command.Everything was fine until before it loaded. It showed something like I/O Fatal Error etc... Then I tried the fluxbox command.Still it loads and the nwhen it comes to 'Ready."(the third line it shows you after pressing enter) it freezes. I am bored now and i am almsot going to cry(not really but I am sad). If DSL won't, I will not bother trying to find other Linux distros that will work on my pentium.Thats it,there will e no Linux for me.
