Installing Mandriva 2009 Spring on a Pentium 4

If you have tried to install Mandriva 2009 Spring on a Pentium 4, I hope you had better success than I did.


I had no success. I have two Pentium 4's. One is a Dell GX260, the other is a nine year old Hewlett Packard. Both are within the technical guidelines. for the operating system.


Both installation CDs came to a halt with a black screen, on boot up, leaving me a little disappointed that I cannot have this excellent operating system on two of my pcs.


If anyone has had success installing Mandriva 2009 Spring on a 32-bit machine, perhaps you will share it.
