Here's the scenario
i just found an old compaq computer an it has an old pentium 2 processor, 333 mhz, 128 mb of ram and a 3 gig hd.
I want to install Slackware 8.1 on it (i know it's not the latest version) and all my partitions are set up as following:
-linux root
-extended partition
-swap space
-/usr
-/opt
/home
Now when i tell it to install of the applications after it's done it tells me that everything is installed and the computer will restart. Now i know that it's supposed to ask me to etup up my video card, lilo, mouse etc but it never does. It just says that everything is installed and after it reboots it says that ntldr is missing and nothing happens. All it tells me to do is restart again. I don't know what else to do.
I want to install it first on this rig before i install it on my main rig and because i want to learn about linux first before i fuck up my main rig
does anyone know what to do???
Any comments are appreciated
thankz
