I now have a F29 32 bit disk in the T42, meaning to do a
netinstall; but I have what I think must be a hardware problem. It booted
from the desk, and started Anaconda normally; then I got interrupted, and
when I got back, the screen was black. It still is.
I've tried hitting keys, moving the mouse, opening and closing
the machine -- with and without long waits in the midst of each.
I have not, yet, tried rebooting with the power button, not
knowing what that might do to the install. Nor have I taken it to a shop.
Does anybody have a better idea?
