Can't Install! Kernel Hangs!



Hello all.  I just got my CheapBytes 1.3.1 CD (which has some files that
look suspiciously out of date ...) and I can't boot from either the CD
(using loadlin) or the Rescue Disk I made.  I also tried downloading the
latest disk image, and it didn't work either.

The kernel seems to hang when it displays the "MD Driver" message.  I gave
it 5 minutes and then rebooted.

I'm going to try using my own kernel today, but if anyone has a quick fix
I'd be very happy to hear it.

My Computer is a gateway G6200:

200 Mhz PPro (w/ 256K cache, intel mboard (I think))
IDE disk: quantum fireball 3.2 GB
IDE CDROM: toshiba something
Iomega ditto on floppy controller
Intel 3c595 "vortex" NIC
Matrox Millenium w/ 4MB RAM
Ensoniq Soundscape VIVO sound card
USR Sportster modem
1600 MB winNT partition (fat, on hda1)
