if you append&nbsp; &#39; 3&#39; (without quotes) to the kernel line, will start in runlevel 3 (multiuser,network,text) and then you can edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf , replace <br>Driver &quot;something&quot;<br>line with <br>Driver &quot;vesa&quot; 
<br>save and reboot.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">2007/7/23, Justin Conover &lt;<a href="mailto:justin.conover@gmail.com">justin.conover@gmail.com</a>&gt;:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Is there some switch to boot with vesa instead of detecting your video card and using &quot;nv&quot; for example?&nbsp; I have a newer mobile 8400 card and the screen just goes black when it starts the gui.&nbsp; I have been trying to build a rawhide dvd since F7 doesn&#39;t detect my dvd drive after the initial boot, which seems kind of odd that it boots and loads up and then ask cd/http/nfs and then can&#39;t find the dvd driver.&nbsp; FC6 installs but doesn&#39;t find the tg3 nic so updating turns into a problem :)
<br><br>For what it is worth, Debian testing network boot installs fine and it is on a 2.6.21 kernel.&nbsp; <br><br>I have tried some boot.iso&#39;s from rawhide the past week, but they just stop on unpacking initrd.blah.<br>
