Hi folks,

This is my first post here, so sorry for dragging this old thread up but I couldn't find anything else in the archives:

And the output reads what's below. Thanks for any help. --Andrew

I have a similar problem, trying to boot 9.2.2. from CD.
As well as a read out similar to the above, I also have "DHCP server not installed" and "modprobe: cant locate module ip_tables".

This is after MOL starts and displays the graphic of the penguin holding the apple, then exits.

"startmol -X" didn't work any better. 

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Robert.
