Problems Installing Mandrake 7.0

[Johan]

Ok, I use my booy floppy to install Linux mandrake. Its starts fine and begins to load from the cdrom. It then show "in second stage" at the bottom left of the screen....after a couple of minuts it stops and i get this error.

_X11 TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111

Someone told me that my video card isn't being recognized right off and that I should istall using texed based. If this is the actual problem...how would I change to text based?

before you start installing, there should be an option either to press F1 or go to expert mode or something. press F1 and there should be an option to do text install.
im not sure tho cuz im using 7.2 and the installs might be different
