The way I test Musix is if it will boot and run on a very touch IBM NetVista PC. With Musix 0.50, I had tried for days to come up with the correct boot parameters for the CD to boot. After finding that and documenting it for myself, I never had a problem booting. With Musix 1.0rc1, I had to do the same thing. After only 2 evenings, I found this to work for me at the boot prompt: boot: xorgmusix english dma lang=eng noapic acpi=off nomce nopcmcia Also, for booting and running from the CD, it is better to have a lot of memory. I have 768MB, but booting from the CD and running SEQ24, Hydrogen, and ZynAddSubFX with 3 instruments causes the PC to crash. When I install Musix on a hard drive, it runs fine. 1) Spend time finding the correct boot options for your PC 2) Make sure you have enough memory. The CD is 700MB. Since some of the CD decompresses into memory to run from a virtual disk in RAM, you shoul have at least 1GB RAM to do anything useful with just booding from the CD. 3) If you don't have a lot of memory in your PC, install Musix on a hard drive and try it from there.
