I am looking for a distribution (Linux or BSD)
that will install on a Pioneer CD-ROM ATAPI Model DR-A24X 0104 without
hanging. RedHat 5.1 and 5.2 both hang. The system is an old Cyrix
486-DX with a 1 Gb drive. It is currently running RedHat 5.1, but the
installation was from the hard disk and there was plenty I did not
include. The CD-ROM is recognized during boot and I insmod isofs, but all
I get are timeouts when I try to mount the drive. It would be great to
start over with a clean system and I would prefer not to use a gazillion
floppies.
