Installation of Fedora on Intel N440BX
Hello,
I have problems while installing Fedora Core 1 on my server. I have a dual-cpu machine (2x400 MHz, 1GB ECC) on a Intel N440BX-Board with integrated SCSI-Controller (Symbios). The Fedora installer started and tried to load the SYM53C8xx-module. At this point the machine hangs. The same problem exists with RedHat 9. The installation of SuSE 9 finished without any problems. What's wrong with the SYMBIOS-Driver? Can anyone help me? Thanks Holger |
I guess this is a little late, but I just tried installing CORE 1 on the same system. The installation hung in the same spot you mentioned.
I worked around it by pulling the SCSI cables from the drives connected to the integrated Symbios controller. This allowed me to complete the installation. After reconnecting the cables and rebooting, we get: Code:
scsi0 : channel 0 target 0 lun 0 request sense failed, performing reset. qo |
Hey There,
