Install hang question ...

[mconsidine at netreach.net]

Hi,
I believe I've correctly searched the archives for this
answer, but found nothing.  Hopefully, someone can point me
in the right direction ...

I just finished a plain-vanilla install of Core 3.  Upon the
first reboot, I get to the following point on the screen :

Starting udev: [ OK ]
Initializing hardware ... storage network audio done [ OK ]
Configuring kernel parameters:

and at this point it seems to be hung.  Pressing
<Ctrl><SysRq> results in
  /etc/init.d/functions: line 428:
/etc/rhgb/temp/rhgb-console: Interrupted system call
but it still seems hung.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I need to
fix/reinstall to get this going?  There were no errors
during the install, and the only message I note upon booting
is
ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP

The machine is a Dell Dimension XPS D300 (PII 300Mhz) with
128M RAM and one 8Gb harddisk.  The install is a fresh
"desktop" install (i.e. nothing is being preserved on the
old drive and default choices are selected for installation
options).

FWIW, I've had RH 9 running on this machine before as part
of a dual boot system, so the machine is actually capable of
working :)

Any fixes that people have or that I could be pointed to
would be appreciated.  And I really apologize if this is
covered somewhere and I've missed it.
