If I enter 'linux mediacheck' at the boot prompt, I also get nothing
but the black screen. Is there another way to do the media check?
It sounds now as if the loader can't guess well enough what your
video card is and your monitor is. So try starting with "linux-text" and
see if that comes up.

After booting from disc 1, I hit <enter> to start a graphical

'linux xxx' at the boot: prompt and all result in the black screen.
I'm running:
Asus A7V333
AMD Athlon XP 1800
512 MB RAM
nVidia NV15DDR GeForce2 Ti
Sony Trinitron Multiscan G400
Any ideas on getting an install process that I can see executing?
Thanks!

Did you test your cd-rom's before trying to load? It might be a
problem in disk 1. I loaded that way no problem.
