Fedora Hangs Up during install

LinuxGoalie · 05-02-2005, 06:17 PM

I'm trying to install Fedora Core 3 on my Toshiba Laptop Satellite 5005 504. For some reason the thing just stops after the line:

running /sbin/loader

I've waited for an hour now and nothing happened. I tried the different options (noprobe, skipddc, nofb, text and combinations of those) and none of them worked.

Help?

have you tried another distro, maybe based on fedora if you really want it?

Figured it out, the CD I used wasn't burned properly.
But I didn't know that until now, because I never actually got to the Media Checking point.
Reburned it and now it works fine, so:

Lesson learned, if your install isn't working right, reburn your CD and try again.
