HELP please - LL 2.2 32 Bit live DVD HDD install problem
#1
  [size=1.35em]A) Was running LL2.0 32 bit -update kernel 3.15 Full install  July 2104[/size][size=1.35em]Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Si1520  + 2GB RAM on LL 2.0 + new trial Kernel. Video working fine on INTEL 945GM/GMS 943/940 GML Integrated Graphics Controller (rev03).  Display max 1280 x 800 . Single SATA HDD 250GB[/size][size=1.35em]Recently updated via menu/favourites/install updates[/size][size=1.35em]B) Managed to eventually write a Live DVD of LL2.2-32 bit.iso
[/size]
[size=1.35em]Original Iso md5 from terminal “[/size]8960b5c0bed2e790dec213235a883cc3 linux-lite-2.2-32bit.iso” C) Tries to run Live  DVD  but had real difficulty finding correct keyboard combination for the laptop – Continual “*” instead of “0”  So could not log onto router via wifi.D) Decided to install anyway as a full install REPLACING original LL2.0. Ticked Option 2“Erase disc and Install Linux” AND ticked option 3 LVM.  On going to "next" a Grey box came up with problem ( did not not what it said.E)So Unticked Box 3 (LVM) and tried "next" – again Grey Box came up.F) Tried Quit and Back but process hung – Had  force to switch off via on/off button.G) On rebooting boot screen  hangs  I.e blank screen with flashing cursor top left.H) Force shut off.  Bios Boot prority - usb stick - DVDROM SATA HDDI) Plug in usb stick with puppy linix liveto perhaps “rescue” - will not initiate still blank screen - flashing cursorJ) Put in live DVD Puppy linux  and full install to HDD.  Check HDD with Gparted – HDD  taken Puppy linux and sda flagged “BOOT”Take out DVD and reboot – Blank screen Flashing cursor.K) Enter BIOS on re boot up (F2) and set to default –  SATA HDD as priority.L) Still Blank Screen and flashing cursorHelp please – Now you know why I have my psuedonym –  Computers yet again “driving me tio drink”.  For me this is not a hobby – Using Computers (NOT IT) is my job =  data crunching – mining.- Fortunately this is not my main computer – that is still on LL 2.0 Smile
