You've spent an entire afternoon installing Linux. In order to make space
for it, you wiped your MS-DOS and OS/2 partitions, and tearfully
deleted your copies of SimCity and Wing Commander.
You reboot the
system, and nothing happens. Or, even worse, <em>something</em> happens, but
it's not what should happen. What do you do?
<P>
In Section <A HREF="node82.html#secinstallprobsbooting">2.5.1</A>, we covered some
of the most common problems that can occur when booting the Linux
installation media---many of those problems may apply here. In addition,
you may be victim to one of the following maladies.
