Trouble Beginning the Installation

Is Your Mouse Not Detected?

If the Mouse Not Detected screen (see Figure F-1) appears, then the installation program was not able to identify your mouse correctly.

You can choose to continue with the GUI installation or use the text mode installation, which does not require using a mouse. If you choose to continue with the GUI installation, you will need to provide the installation program with your mouse configuration information (see Figure 4-3).

For an overview of text mode installation instructions, please refer to Chapter 5.

Problems with Booting into the Graphical Installation

The installation program will first try to run at 800 x 600 resolution. If that fails, it will try to run at 640 x 480. To force the installation program to run at 640 x 480, boot into lowres mode. Refer to the section called Booting the Installation Program from the CD-ROM in Chapter 3 for details.
