Fedora core 6 test2 install problem

HI,
I tried to install fedora core 6 test2 on my toshiba satellite a60. The installation hang up both in text and graphical mode when anaconda says:"Searching for Fedora Installations.." or something like this

I've got WinXp installed and Mandriva 2006, i'd like to replace mandriva with fedora
Any suggestions?

Hi, I seem to be having the same problem, except I am running SUSE 10.1 not mandrake. In any case, I have found a few things feeds that seem to indicate the problem may be LVM. I have not had a chance to corroborate this, but I was wondering, have you found any response to your question elsewhere?

I had the same problem with Fedora Core 6 Test 2, but the FC 6 pre-release works fine.

Someone told me this is a kernel bug with test edition (also Test3 doesn't work), it seams that fedora 6 test doesn't like ATI motherboard of the laptop. Hope someone will fix this bug! Fedora core 5 works perfectly instead!
