Install Blue and Black Screen

[Guest]

Hi,

This is my first post.

I´m having troubles installing in a old IBM xseries 305 Server.

The installation start and, when I can see the first blue Screen, inmediately the server put a Black Screen, and I can´t make any more.

I redirect the video to the serial port by bios, and the same result.

Can anywhere help to me??

Thanks.

You can do two different things:
- when the installer starts, at the grub menu, you can type "e", then "e" again and then remove "quite" from the grub menu and see the verbose output during boot (including errors)
- when the installer starts and blocks, type ALT + F3 and see if any error is displayed

hope it helps!

Lo

I have the same problem too,

    Attempting a fresh installation  of 2.4.1 on the Dell poweredge R310.  The system hangs with a blank blue screen after the initial Linux boot.  No response to 'Alt+F3'.

Just tried it on a few new MSI and ASUS MoBo with Pentium 4 Dual (not the latet hw).
Blue Screens. Also no go with USB keyboards I see....
Had to go back to old Dell Dimension 2400/PS2.

For a minute, we thought Endian is linux 2.4 kernel, but its 2.6.27-19

I think this project is dead. What fork to use, IPFire? Dev seems too full of himself.

Serious problems getting DD-WRT Open VPN as client since Endian doesnt create or have a place to manage client certs.
Endian GW to GW works fine though...
