Yep, tried that...actually, I've tried knoppix, suse, berry, the linux
rescue option on the centos install cds and tomsrtbt. Results vary, at times
I can boot up, other times it dies at different points. From what I've read
over the last couple of days and a few responses on the list, it seems this
is pretty consistent with a failing power supply, so I'm just going to get a
replacement and stick it in there. Which brings me back to what I was was
originally asking about - can anyone recommend a linux friendly hardware guy
in the downtown area?
