RE: RedHat Linux 7 (Guinness) Won't Boot...Help



How big is your hard drive?  Did you make a boot floppy as part of the installation?

Subject: RedHat Linux 7 (Guinness) Won't Boot...Help

Hi..
I am having trouble booting linux. I have installed it several times but linux won't boot after the first restart. It seems that Lilo won't even load. When it starts to load the MBR the compter just sits with a undeline curser constantly flashing in the top left hand corner. I also have the same problem with RedHat 6.2 but when the computer starts to display Lilo.... it only says Li_ with the curser flashing. I haven't tried any other versions of linux. btw Linux seems to install fine.
 
My System is:
AMD Athlon 1ghz
Asus K7V mainboard
128mb PC133 Ram
Creative Savage 4 GT/Pro 32Mb PCI Video Card
48x Panasonic CDrom (on IDE ATA/66 Secondary Slave Port)
20 Gb Western Digital ATA/66/100  72000rpm (on IDE ATA/66 Primary Master Port)
Avance Logic ALS4000 PCI Sound Card
 
At the moment my computer is just sitting there as i bought it to run linux. At the moment I'm restricted to only using Windows ME which runs fine so i know there is nothing wroung with my hardware. Any help asap will be great.
Thanx
Phirax
