FC6 Install Locks up
I am trying to install FC6 on my rather old system, but I keep running into the same system lock-up every time.
My System: ~xp2200+ ~512 MB RAM ~2 x 80 GB SATA drives (NOT raid) ~1 x 60 GB IDE drive I have the IDE drive set up as a windows drive, I want one of the SATA for FC6 and the other set up as a vfat that I can write/read (easily) from both sides. Some of the above info may be not necessary, sorry. My Problems: I can go through the setup options and configure as I want, but after the dependency check has been done and it winds up the CD to start install, but nothing happens. Later (like a few seconds, the cursor locks up and now even less is happening. I can boot up a knoppix and see all the drives, and up to this point there is no indication something is wrong, so I am probably doing something wrong. But I tried FC5 and Suse 10.1 all with no issues so I am open to suggestions cause I am outta ideas. Thanks again |
Did you try doing a text install rather than graphical?

I hadn't though of it- so you can tell I am not really out of windoze yet! That stop the install lock-up, now I have a GRUB error 17 on boot. GRRRRR!
Thanks for the help |
