HD Install :: Nothing Happens

I put in the CD and bootable floppy and I get this screen
then a blank screen for 30 min. after pressing enter.
It then restarts and does nothing

First, if you have a USB keyboard make sure that USB keyboard emulation is turned ON in your BIOS settings.

Then try booting with:

dsl vga=normal xsetup

and then see what happens. Try some different XVESA graphics modes to see if one works for you.
