Hello,
I would appreciate any help or suggestions, I'm
running Digital 433a Workstation in SRM console mode (V6.7-250)
trying to install Mandrake 7.1 Beta off bootable CD
here we go!!

Do you know how to force a text install through SRM or ABOOT?

because:

Machine boots to SRM and I enter the following:

>>> boot dqa0 fl -0

this boots my CD and starts installing Mandrake,
get to choice of install media, I choose CDROM the machine goes to
ramdisk load and crashes.
error no screens found.

I change the video card from Powerstorm to a S3 type

still crashes no errors

I want to try and load through text mode.
