    Dell Vostro 200 woes.

    I did a search on the forums for this, and only really found on solution. The problem is, that solution didn't seem to work all that well.

    I get the BusyBox prompt when trying to install ANY debian variant of Linux. I tried using spidertaker23's suggestion of hitting Esc at the boot menu, yet that does nothing, I know in older distros it gave the option to edit the boot line, yet Kubuntu 8.04 KDE4 Remix doesn't seem to have that option. The disk works in other machines, so I know the ISO is right.


    This is driving me nuts!! I think I may need therapy after this.


    Thanks again guys!

    Do any Debian Live CDs work on that Dell?

    I recall that there was a model of CD ROM drive that would drop you to the busy box. Maybe that's the problem. If so, you're stuck unless you can hook up a different optical drive. :P
