Ram : 512MB DDR2(667Mhz) on both channels

i would reinstall FC6 and u need a min of ram 256 for install any thing faster than a P2. have a internet conection so it can look for up dates.

My system is
Intel core2due E6400
Motherboard - Intel DG965RY
RAM 512 MB(667 bus)
HDD is PATA 80GB

i did GUI installation
but i did only minimal installation
i mean i jus used 3 out of the 7 cd's
so am unable to do anythin wth the FC6 even doin updates saya that thr r dependancy problem sort of things..

THE FOLLOWING POST WAS BY shrikant.odugoudar

Here is how its done.
1) Go to your BIOS and change Advanced->Drive Configuration->AHCI(will be IDE initially)
2) Insert the Fedora(Debian) cd/dvd into your drive.
3) Start installation by typing 'linux a),b) & c)'
a) all-generic-ide
b) irqpoll
c) pci=nommconf
4) Once the installation is completed, c) will be added automatically to the kernel parameter, you just add a) to the kernel by modifying /boot/grub/grub.conf. DON'T ADD b)

I've successfully tried and tested this using FC6 on my motherboard. FYI my specs in my sig.
Hope this helps

hey all

i am getting the exact same response on my system when trying to install fc6.

Processor: Intel C2Q Q6600
Motherboard: MSI-P35 Neo2
Ram: 2Gb OCZ 800Mhz
Hard Drive: 200 Gb Seagate IDE

I pre loaded fc6 using a different system (intel p4 sony vaio). the sony takes any distro i throw at it but the other one will not take any. i have tried many different flavors of linux but it wont boot any of them. I am probably missing something that would be obvious to a regular linux user.

I am also brand new to linux but eager to learn. Thanks to all for their time and help!
