I have a refurbished x131e. I pulled the 320G HD and installed an empty 500GB SSD. From a USB SD I started the x64 NetInstall.
In the install process, I set my location (Detroit), changed the host name, left the drive setup as default. Then I selected a bunch of software. I selected the Xfce desktop and a number of items on the right. About 1500 files and something like 1.23GB download. I proceeded with the install and set the root password and created my user ID.
The download completed as did the rpms installs. The kernel build I think completed. My attention was elsewhere when the system just turned off.
Bip.
Off.
I pulled the USB CD and powered up. It shut right off. I powered up again and the kernel selection menu shows for a bit and seems to select the first one. Then it shuts off.
I have gone through this 2 'step' power up attempt twice.
Now what? Anyone aware of anything like this? Should I try the install again, but just pretty much basic Xfce?
Should I download a LiveCD (is there an Xfce one?) and see what I see on about the system and status of the drive?
