Hi all,

I succesfully installed fc4 on my old pc in the past several times without any problems. but now on my new PC, i am unable to install either fc4 or ubuntu.

I have a winXP partition and i boot with the fc4 install disk. i press enter to start the install.

it says loading vmlinuz....

loading initrd.img........ (i don't remember its name exactly)

thats where it stops. it just hangs there. so i need to press the reset button and this happens always.

and with ubuntu, i have the 6.06 install cd. when i boot and select "start or install ubuntu", and then after showing the loading screen for a few seconds, it goes to the shell (busybox if i remember correctly) and says "can't access tty; job control turned off".

i have succesfully installed these two version on my old PC. it was a P4 system with a ide hdd. the new pc is a pentium D system and sata hdd. is this an issue with the processor being dual core or the sata hdd??

someone please help...

Thanks

no one here to help? plz...

bump.

sorry but i m desperate
