Once again:
I tested SERVER and what you call STANDALONE
(Neither WORKSTATION nor THIN-CLIENT were tested. RE: As clarified, my initial
entry mistakenly mentioned WORKSTATION instead of STANDALONE, so apply all
WORKSTATION statements toward STANDALONE.)
What's been outlined is:
1) Installing SERVER (Yes, selecting "Main server") encounters the error
message re. "X" -never making it thru to the GUI screen logon...
-ref. 2nd paragraph of intial entry: "...fails to find /etc/X11/X"
2) Installing STANDALONE does get thru to the GUI screens, however an Error
window message is immediately presented.
-ref. 3rd paragraph of initial entry: "Debconf on localhost: Some errors
were
found in installation. error: status=0x05 {Drive Ready Seek Complete Data
request}, error: status..." -repeated four times.
Now that that's perfectly clear...
So far you have pointed toward SkoleLinux having serious trouble with Nvidia
cards. Meanwhile then, I have changed my card to a VisionTek Radeon 7000 64MB
PCI card. However, now over four more install attempts, neither of my two iso
copies are able to install on either of two hard drives. All install attemps
only hit an error during initial setup:
Title: "Configuring pnm2ppa Installation step failed."
Description: "An Installation step failed. You can try to run the failing
item again from the menu, or skip it and choose something else. the failing
step is: Select and install software."
Any attempts at re-running this phase only present same error.
Please advise, also on Skolelinux's minimum hardware requirements.
Thanks.
Al
