| Quote (ke4nt1 @ July 27 2005,10:53) | Some more info would be most helpful.
Did you ever see a DSL boot prompt? (isolinux vs. syslinux)
Does your CD work on another computer? (bad media?)
Did you try the syslinux version? (boot method for older systems)
If you get a prompt, did you try failsafe? ( minimal boot )
Pressing F2 and F3 at the boot prompt gives you many options to try.
If you can't get that far, and the CD boots well in other systems,
then the syslinux version of DSL would be my next step.

Sorry for the limited input, thank you for your attempt in aiding me.
When I boot from the CD I get the DSL prompt with the option to press F2 for more options.
CD Boots on Older IBM Aptiva Machines
I am now getting the syslinux version 1.3 &1.2
Failsafe got me to the same results (freezes during boot)
Trying the different video modes has gotten me nowhere. Granted I am using the 1.2 version. I could not conclude if problems of this type were fixed in the 1.3 version. I am attempting to download 1.3 now
