Not sure what would cause X to crash at that particular point in the install, though. It's just going through the package load. FWIW, the graphics card is a Matrox Millenium, so nothing touchy should be going on there. The install has failed twice at about the same point. I didn't observe the first one so I'm not sure if it's *exactly* the same point or not. Also, I've got limited RAM. The installer doesn't complain, though, except that it turns on swap right after the partition step. > > On Fri, 2 Jul 2004 14:28:44 -0400 (EDT), Matthew Saltzman > <mjs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Has anyone had success installing FC2 on a Pentium-I system?
