Hi all, I have now managed to get BackTrack 3 Final installed to the harddrive of my laptop. It works very nicely bar one thing... it won't boot nicely. Now, when I say "nicely", what I mean is this. It will start to boot (I presume) but the screen stays blank. Should I provide the machine with an ACPI event (power button, power cord removal/insertion, etc) then the screen comes on and it starts/continues to boot properly... until, that is, it reaches the "fd0 is 1.44mb" stage. When it gets to that part, if the power cord is not present, it freezes. I've tried various kernel options but nothing seems to make any difference. Anyone got any thoughts?
