 >Description:
 I cannot get the thing to install...the system boots fine off of the floppy, th
 en goes directly to the kernel config, then freezes at the installation menu
 >How-To-Repeat:
 turn off the computer, and try to install again...same thing happens...over and
  over again, on more than just one machine, using more than just one configurat
 ion of that system, ie: Cyrix processor didn't work, so tried an Intel...etc.
