Hey Lugod,

I am new to Linux and after experiencing it in the computer labs in 
Kemper Hall on campus decided to give it a shot at home on my AMD Athlon 
64 Bit Dual Core machine. I have now tried Mandriva Spring 2007 (DVD), 
Mandriva 2007 (CD), Fedora 7(DVD), and after a suggestion in your IRC 
channel I downloaded Knoppix to see if that would work. Every single one 
of these distributions gets me to the screen where I tell it to start 
the install (or to start Linux in Knoppix's case) and when I tell it to 
begin it loads a few files and then freezes. Any suggestions on why this 
might be and how to work around it? Thanks in advance for anything you 
guys can do.
