FC3 is working fine on my system but when i am going to install FC4,after probing for monitor type,mouse type etc , THE SCREEN CHANGES TO BLANK WHITE SCREEN and there is no response till restart.
Graphics screen doesn't come to click next to proceed for installation.
Currently using monitor type: Samsung 40bn
Tried with HCL 14'' and 15'' ,monitors.
PLS HELP ME.........to proceed...............................................
Thank you for ur quick response.
I tried loading in text mode with Disk Druid,But one message comes after i partition and proceed for installation.The Message is:
"Error informing the kernel abt the changes u made to /dev/hdb8.The device or resource is busy...."
This message came for all the partitions i made manually and installation terminated.
However i became success in installation with Autopartition.But again i faced the same problem while booting,When graphics is abt to start, BLANK WHITE SCREEN COMES.
I entered in rescue mode and changed the file /etc/inittab for entering runlevel 3.It boot up successfully and i got login prompt.But when i entered startx, SAME PROBLEM...................................PLS HELP ME as i am new to linux and hence need the GUI.
Thank u a lot. I became successful to get GUI in FC4.Here's how i did.
As per that link i tried searching the file "libvgahw.a"on the ftp site but that file is not available there now.So i copied that file from my existing FC3 system and replaced in the specified directory of FC4.And it is working fine........
