linux first boot



I can't install linux.

When I boot my pc with the debian first install I get to the boot:
prompt ok. When I press enter, a quick page of info passes by to quick
to read and then my pc re-boots itself.

I can't locate what the problem is. I have a 2.1GB IDE hard disk
(Samsung). And an IDE controller.

As a Linux novice I'm not sure what minimal hardware is required for my
first boot.

I'm running an Intel 166MMX with 16MB. Motherboard is AT-TX1 type about
a year and a half old.

Help!
