Hello Davis Linux users,

 I have a problem regarding Linux freezing during its boot.

 Eariler this month I installed Linux Mandrake 9.0.  The installation went 
very well, however when I restarted my computer to boot into Linux for the 
first time, it froze right after the following line of text was printed to 
the screen: "INIT: version 2.83 booting".  It has frozen at this line 
everytime.

 I recently then installed Linux Red Hat 8.0.  It's installation process 
completed very well also.  But, again during its boot, it freezes at "INIT: 
version 2.84 booting".

 I am running a Gateway:
 750 AMD Athlon
 128 MB RAM

 I'm not a member of your club, but if you have any ideas on how to remedy 
this problem, please email me.  Thank you.



thanks,
Michael Jew
