Yes.  I think it would help you download/install whatever necessary drivers you need if you're wired in and your wireless usb tplink wn725n is attached.

Still trying to get wireless going.I have a tplink wn725n.Do i need to be online to connect the driver?

Perhaps this could be a start:

@angler777,

Try what's seen in this thread:
https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/installing-linux-lite/(solved)pae-is-disabled-on-this-pentium-m/

Looks like all you have to do is press the tab button at the Welcome to Linux Lite 2.4 boot menu screen to edit options.  And then you type in forcepae with no spaces after the two dashes (--).

The boot menu screen I'm talking about is the one that looks like this:



So when you press tab, a line will appear that will look something like this:
> /casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/custom.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.gz quiet splash --

And when you add forcepae to the end of it, it should look like this:
> /casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/custom.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.gz quiet splash --forcepae

Then hit Enter on your keyboard to proceed.

Received my cd from linux lite.Booted it up,no go.In safe mode got this msg.I am trying to  install L.L. on a Dell2250 with XP. ERROR: PAE is disabled on this PENTIUM M (PAE can potentially be enabled with kernel parameter "forcepae"- this is unsupported, may cause unknown problems, and will taint the kernel). This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU: pae
Unable to boot- please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU.Can anybody help me on this?I am lost.Far as I know this is a factory stock Dell 2250.Thanks for any help.

Make sure the cd drive lens is clean. I keep a



on my shelf for just this kind of troubleshooting.

[angler777]

All this cogitating gives me a headache.I ordered the cd from your site.Providing no one at Philippine customs or post office gets sticky fingers,i should be in business soon.Thanks anyway guys.

FTR, md5sums can be found on all our mirrors - https://www.linuxliteos.com/download.html#mirrors

[Scott]

The only other tips I can think of is to set the burn speed to the slowest possible speed and don't use the computer while it's burning the CD, that includes disabling screensavers and powersave settings too.

Hello!

You're welcome. Download the MD5Summer.zip file from here: http://www.md5summer.org/md5v12011.zip.

The easiest way I know of to proceed is to extract the .zip file, download the attachment(s) I posted here, delete the '.txt' off the end of the filename(s), put MD5summer and the hash(es) into the same directory as the ISO(s), and then run md5summer. If all is well, it should check your ISO, and the yellow indicator will turn green if the hash verifies OK.

If anyone else can offer a better solution for this (outside of Linux), feel free to comment. Again, just holler for help if you need more...

Please explain what i am supposed to do with these numbers.I am a novice.I booted up to my homemade cd and typed in the numbers after the cursor on the blank page.No go.I would buy your cd but dealing with the Philippine post office and customs stresses me out.This is going into a dell 2250,replacing the entire o.s.Thanks,Bob

Hello!
 
Welcome to the Linux Lite forums.

Since you're using CDBurnerXP, I would guess you're using Windows. If you aren't using something else to check MD5 hashes, search for and get md5summer to check your hashes with.

The hashes are on the same page as the downloads, but I've attached them here, so you can understand their format. You may need to remove the '.txt' extension; I had to add it to upload them.

Just let us know if you have any questions. Hope you get a good download this time!
