Comments/Problems:
I tried the latest stable build
but got a crash on bootup; it was suggested that I try the latest build
but the same problem exists.
Booting with the option acpi=off gets me further into the installation, but I have hardware problems down the line so I can't finish the installation. (Seems to be a problem with overheating).
I searched the internet and found that someone had a similar problem with a compaq armada, and this person had to build the kernel with a 3rd-party patch.
Would I have to do something like that to get this to work?
Thanks, output below:
