What kind of jam was it?

The loading of BT3BETA jams in the point in which writes:

Linux live end, starting the linux distribution
init: version 2.86 booting
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
starting udevd: /sbin/udev --daemon
triggering udev events: /sbin/udevtrigger

...here it jams

Thanks for the help

Can something be done? or to configure something?

Thanks

i got same problem on acer aspire 2920z

[shamanvirtuel]

we have identified the pb

here is the solution

1 boot nohotplug

2 don't startx

3 install new NVIDIA driver

4 make symlink between nvidia driver & intel driver

5 save your changes in a module

6 copy module in BT3/modules

7 reboot normal & pray =)

8 xconf

9 startx

=)
normally you're done

the pb comes from a faulty udev detection , that will try to load intel driver at boot for your nvidia card , you can easily understand this is a problem ......

enjoy
ps this works apparently on all acer that have this problem

[Candlemass]

so, apart from these commands, after the nohotplug trigger :

ln -s -f /lib/modules/2.6.21.5/kernel/drivers/char/agp/nvidia-agp.ko /lib/modules/2.6.21.5/kernel/drivers/char/agp/intel-agp.ko 
/sbin/udevd --daemon 
/sbin/udevtrigger

which others are needed??
my laptop is an Acer 7720G and I'm using BT2 because I can't get BT3b to work...

thanx in advance.

i have a 7520.

try text mode, press tab. after rw, type "noapic noagp acpi=off" without the "

then user = root
pass = toor

type "startx"

worked fine after 2days of playing about.
