Description Neil Darlow 2000-06-12 19:45:48 UTC
Winston CDROM NFS mounted and exported from Red Hat 6.2 server.
Boot diskette created from Winston CD /images/bootnet.img

Installation proceeds as far as probing for mouse which fails.
Indicates No mouse found, GUI install cannot proceed
Indicates falling back to Text mode
Then attempts to start X Server which fails leaving all VCs blank
Hub indicates network activity still in progress
X Server indicates fatal error
Anaconda issues traceback indicating not able to open display
