Created attachment 96332 [details] complete detailed report, incl. my actions to (try to) install
Please boot with "linux text" or use a later release which handles this better.
Linux textmode tells me that i don´t have a shell, (almost same error as linux rescue (as discribed in my first attachment)), is it possible to create a floppy so i can use CD2 to install ?
I too get the same bug as reported here by martin. my PC details are the same as tht of martin's except for the extra hard disk. I tried to install red hat linux 8.0(the cd of which i got free with a book) by deleting the D:\ drive & creating the /,/boot & swap partitions in the free space. I used the GRUB loader to boot DOS frm /dev/hda1 and Red Hat Linux from /dev/hda3. The error message that i got was exactly similar to the one reported here. When i tried to boot in rescue mode too, the corresponding error as reported here occurred.
This should be resolved in newer releases. Please reopen if you continue to encounter this problem in newer releases.
