Okay, sorry for the bad assumption. Perhaps using VGA=normal on the
boot line will get it going. I did this installation on a 400 Mhz
Pentium II with the Nvidia M4000 graphics card. It was slow, but it
did install. The installation took a very very long time to complete,
and a couple of times I was sure it had hung after impossible long
delays. After restarting about 4 times, I just left it alone and
walked away. When I got back (some 6 hours later), it was finished.
Couldn´t tell you how long it really took to run, never checked the
logs. I was not happy with the performance and reinstalled Dapper.
Perhaps another expert? Anyone?
