There's only one boot kernel on the CD, so I can't quite make sense of this. If you can't get the install started, try booting from floppies. If you can but run into problems later, try installing the production version, 4.10 (which is also more recent than 5.2.1). > If the problem lay in the ACPI (my first guess) how would I fix it? Are you saying that you haven't tried the methods in the release notes, or that they didn't work?
