Hi Folks,
I'm not sure if this is the right way
to go about this type of inquiry. I am a brand new user who is attempting
to install red hat linux 9. It seems as though the files were installed
correctly, however when I boot I receive the following message:
hda:dma_timer_expiry:dma status==0x20
hda:timeout waiting for
dma
hda:timeout waiting for
dma
hda:status
error:status=0x58
{DriveReady
SeekComplete DataReq1uest}
hda:drive not ready for
command
During this message the screen turns
on and off 4-5 times. At that point a dialogue box appears stating the
following:
failed to start the
display server several times in a short time period;
disabling
display:0
I am then back at the login.
I've tried using the # redhat-config-xfree86 command and I can't find the
problem. Can anyone help with this issue? If so could you be as
detailed as possible as I do not know linux yet.
Thanks!
Tom
