I am trying to intall DSL on Pentium-S 166MB, 64MB DRAM, 800MB hard disk.
I burned the latest ISO, which is booting up.
Then I get a very dark window, which I cant see anything inside.
My target is to format the hard drive and install DSL on it.

Please advise how to do that.

Thanks

Yigalb,

First, read the wiki on HDD install.
Make sure your screen is not faulty or brightness is too low.
Make sure the CD is burned at a low speed - ie 2x, 4x. (you have 2 types of .iso files to try = without syslinux & with syslinux).
Make sure you CDROM is booting the CD. Screen displays with linux words.

Report your results.

Thanks.
