Well I am really excited to try out DSL, but here's my problem... I burned the iso and the cd is bootable. DSL starts, detects my hardware, and then poof, the screen goes black and nothing happens. Any ideas on what may be causing this?

Thanks,

Eric

At the first prompt you see "Boot:".

Try typing in: dsl failsafe.

See if that lets it boot.
