<p>hi Kyle,<br>
<br>
are you set on Core 3, I downloaded Core 4 a few weeks ago, I'm having some problems, but mine are different, anyway, I just wonder if Core 4 might work better for you. Also, Core 5 is to be out anytime now. I know the Complete Core 5 book comes out next week, it probably comes with a DVD.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>

<font face="Courier New">i have found a i386 version of glibc<br>
<br>
but kernel has a i686 or i586<br>
<br>
will i586 work?<br>
<br>
i tried the boot options "acpi=off" and "noapic" and then tried "ide=nodma"<br>
<br>
even tried all three together, didn't do it, but thank you none the less<br>
<br>
if i586 will work i will try to force the kernel<br>
