Your hardware may be too old for Slacko.jldotso wrote:trying to boot live cd, it goes through the xorgwizard and thru the xwin and then stalls there.
It is designed for stuff around 5years old or newer.
Could be trying to use a resolution setting that is out of limits for graphics hardware or a driver issue.
When you run Xorgwizard make sure to select Vesa driver.
Select a resolution setting you know should work.
Finish Xorgwizard.
At prompt enter xwin.
If still fails do a reboot by entering reboot.
Sometimes you have to reboot to get Xorgwizard changes to work.
There is always the chance that the installation to the CD is bad or the Slacko.iso file you downloaded was a bad download.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Try Wary (Puppy)
You can download Wary iso file from here:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/wary-5.3/
Wary is the Puppy version for older hardware.
