I tried to boot antix-m11 from ISO image on hard-disk. Somehow it did not work. Booting started but then on the screen appeared endless string of error messages:

"bummer, could not run 'bin/sh'

I tried to do the Grub installation as indicated in Installation Tips on page


========= SCRAPER REMOVED AN EMBEDDED LINK HERE ===========
url was:"http://antix.mepis.org/index.php?title=Installation_Tips"
linktext was:"http://antix.mepis.org/index.php?title= ... ation_Tips"
====================================


However, because the computer has Grub2, I had to modify the installation.

The laptop at issue is 12 years old Dell Inspiron 8000. I try to move to antiX because Xubuntu runs quite too slowly and does not operate the graphic card correctly. Older versions of Suse, Ubuntu and Kubuntu did run very well in the computer.

AntiX did work from CD-drive. However, I had to use cheats-option to get the graphic appear correctly.
