Well I've recently come across the Fedora Core 1 distribution and have attempted to install it. My problem is that after it begins to install and run Anaconda and what not, and jump into the graphical (or text) installation, my mouse and keyboard do not register--I can't use either to continue the installation. While loading Anaconda it echos that it probed my mouse (Generic 3 button (USB)) but it doesn't register. I configured my BIOS to enable keyboard and mouse use but it still does nothing. It's frustrating to say the least, and on some level I'm sure Windows is behind it.

I'm trying to install this on a second harddrive as well, running Windows on my primary. Maybe this is a problem? Should I disable my primary harddrive, make my slave a primary and try again?

Any help or suggestions would be grealty appreciated.

I've also considered getting a standard PS/2 mouse, maybe it just can't pick up my USB.

Thanks again.

My suggestion is not to install Fedora Core 1 and try to deal with two year old problems, but rather to start with Fedora Core 3. Many of the problems you will be experiencing have been addressed in the two major release updates since FC1 was made available.

thanks
