Please read what I wrote. I boot from the boot.iso disk and get the install
menu.
I now have 2 choices:
1. select an option from the menu, where can I type in "linux vesa" there
2. press <TAB> whereupon I get the > vmlinuz initrd-initrd.img prompt
I can type in "linux vesa" there but it has no affect.
Thanks,
Tony
