Disk 1 install setup screen freezes

[Richard Emberson]

I've got an HP 760n. It can not boot from CD, so I copied vmlinuz and
initrd.img from isolinux into /boot and modified grub.conf.
During the boot the mouse, card and display are correctly
recognized.

The problem:

The mouse/keyboard/window freezes within the first couple of
install setup screens. The furthest I got was entering in
my ip address. The earliest freeze occurred when the mouse
(as a pointer, after its an 'X') first appears.

Any hints as to whats up?

Thanks.

Thanks.
Did not help.
Still freezes.
Tried twice.
First time got as far as the screen allowing one to enter ip address
before it froze.
Second time the very first install screen only
partially drew and the system was frozen.

Each attempt follows a shutdown then power on.

System runs redhat 9 fine.
