I'm trying to install on a Gateway 2000, 486dx-33 16meg with builtin (on the motherboard) VGA and IDE controllers. Initially, all I got after pressing return at Boot: was Loading initrd.img....Boot failed After disabling the "128K Cache" (it's not clear exactly what that is) - I was able to get past that. Now, I get: Boot: Loading initrd.img..... and a hang. I've waited overnight to ensure it was actually a system hang. Furthermore, I've made several floppies - to guarantee that the floppy was OK - and went as far as physically changing the floppy drive. I'm guessing it's hanging during a probe of some kind... but I don't know how to determine that. I've disabled everything in the machine, it has no serial or printer ports enabled... and... I've removed all cards. This is basically a processor, 16 meg of memory, a keyboard and VGA card, floppy and IDE controller. As I'm in Raleigh - I'd be happy to stop by with the machine for a demonstration.
Could you please try the boot.img from ftp://rawhide.redhat.com/i386/images. If that boots then your computer will be supported in the next release.
