Re: failed to initialize core devices
>From my understanding you can get to the console screen, right? There you can
login correct? Once you are logged in start adminmenu by typing "adminmenu"
(without the quotes) then choose #3 (Configure X-Windows)
Then the computer will prompt you through the rest of the configuration.
Just make sure that you tell it what kind of mouse, Keyboard, etc. you have.
When you get to the list of video card drivers choose the "nv" option
For Monitor configuration choose simple and then choose the resolutions you
know your monitor can support.
I think your problem is you may not be telling the configuration tool the
right selections for your devices. If you have any trouble or you are unsure
of what selection to make and when write it down and post them here.
Most of all be patentient installs can be difficult but I am sure that you
are very close to getting up and running. Just be very sure to note all of
your selections and be as descriptive as possible about the error messages
you get and the hardware you have.
