can't get salix-xfce-14.1, 32bit, to boot [SOLVED]
Posted: 28. May 2014, 01:34
downloaded Salix-Xfce-14.1.iso via torrent.
md5sum matched.
burned to USB with "dd if=Salix-Xfce-14.1.iso of=/dev/sdd bs=4M;sync"
Boots OK, seemed to install to an ext4 extended partition OK,
but, at the end of install, I got a message saying that
file '/kernels/huge.s/bzimage' had an error.
And it won't boot.
I get:
error: file '/kernels/huge.s/bzimage' not found
error: you need to load the kernel first.
Tried installing with to MultiSystem USB but get the same error.
Just wondering what might be the problem
and if there are some boot codes that might help.
and what the next step should be.
I prefer Xfce but tonight I will DL the 64bit Xfce, and both Kde versions and see.
Any tips or pointers appreciated.
