Hi Nicols,

Thanks for your quick reply. Sorry, I am not an expert, how do I pass this
parameter at install time?


After your computer booted from the CD/DVD you get a linux boot prompt
(e.g. linux: ). There you type

         linux acpi=off

and if you don't have any luck with that try

         linux acpi=off noprob

That will supress the device probing.

Cheers

HTH

Alex
