I've tried Kalyway 10.5.2, Kalyway 10.5.1, & Jas 10.5.2 (burned at 1x speed). All of these boot from the DVD, then give me the boot command line. I've tried all the arguments - different kernels, different flags, etc. It then mentions something about APCI, and the laptop reboots. Repeat.

 

I can't seem to get to the GUI installer. I'm going to try a Tiger boot tonight.

 

The system is a Thinkpad T30 laptop:

 

P4 1.6Ghz

512MB RAM

ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 chipset

Linksys WPC54G

 

Any thoughts on what the problem could be?
