Trouble Installing..

I am Having trouble installing Arch on my lab.. I don't have internet access which makes it even worse.. i downloaded the core iso but whenever i boot from it i only get the grub prompt.. the iso linux version works fine, but need the internet to download packages.. is there anyway to get a core iso with a isolinux loader instead of grub..

Re: Trouble Installing..

I have never tried using the isolinux bootloader so I really can't say if its available. However what seems to be the problem with Grub. Does it give any error or does it simply doesn't work.

I have tested Grub on many machines and I have yet to see a single problem. If you could post your hardware specs it could help us debug your problem.
