installation freeze...

[Kenneth Hansen]

Hi there, I have the following problem:

When trying to install linux with bootdisk it freeze at: "Calibrating delay
loop"

I tried with SuSE 5.3, 6.1 og 6.4 and Slackware 4.0 all the same prob
Its an old (Pentium 166 MzH 32 mb SDRAM Graphic adapter: S3 Trio 64bit Net
adapter: D-link 32 bit ISA)

I've also tried to install linux on the same harddrive from another
computer, which worked fine, but putting the harddrive back in the pentium
wasen't a succes: As I boot up the computer, the boot sequence stops, and
the computer reboots itself!!

I think it might has something to do with the hardware, could someone out
there please help me??

thanks i advance
