Can you see if adding either nopcmcia or nofirewire to your boot command line fixes it (just each separately). Also, what's the last line on tty3? You _may_ actually be able to close this one out. Since the boot process never got as far as the media check, I was never able to verify the media (it mounted just fine under my RH9 box). I re-burned all three ISOs and have since successfully installed FC 0.94 on said Dell laptop. Okay, guessing media problem since that makes some sense based on what you've said. |
Description of problem: An FC2 install on a Dell Inspiron 4150 gets no further than: running install... running /sbin/loader Oops: 0000 3c59x ds yenta_socket pcmcia_core keybdev hid input usb-uhci usbcore sr_mod sd_m od scsi_mod ide-cd cdrom floppy loop nfs lockd sunrpc vfat fat cramfs vga16fb CPU: 0 EIP: 0060:[<c0251ffd>] Not tainted EFLAGS: 00010202 [snip] install exited abnormally -- received signal 11 with default boot options. If "nofb pci=off acpi=off" are passed, the following occurs: This got me to the "Do you have a driver disk?" screen. Upon selecting "No", I get a metric boatload of Cyrillic characters against a blue background, then back to the "install exited abnormally -- received signal 11", then more Cyrillic garbage. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda 9.0.94 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot off FC2 CD. 2. Attempt install. 3. Watch anaconda crash n' burn Actual results: Crash! Expected results: No crash! Additional info: This is occuring on a laptop which previously had RH9 installed on it successfully.
