keypox Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I used kalyway 10.5.1 and the install went fine but when i boot all i get is a blank blue screen. I have waited for several minutes. I selected custom install and selected the vanilla stuff but that was all... from searching the forums i see that my hardware should work... intel GMA 950, T2080 i tried pressing f8 then typed -x but that gives blue screen too. Did i miss something in custom install?

yazyazoo Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I am using this right now! I used Kalyway and it installed and got stuck at the registering page. Maybe try and reinstall once more. I think that happened to me once.
