Here's my problem.<br>I was running FC4 fine on my PC, on old Asus A7v333 motherboard, running Athlon XP 2400.<br>2 HD, 80GB running as RAID 1.<br>It came with built-in Promise RAID controller, which I turned off because FC4 install didn't like it.
<br>I tried to install FC5, and for some reason Anaconda detected the RAID controller and installed in /dev/mapper/pdcxxxxx instead of /dev/hda or /dev/hdb (this is after it has been turned off for 1 year). On restart, I got only to just after the POST screen, with the word GRUB and a blinking cursor.
<br><br>No problems, I figured. I turned RAID back on, install went fine, booted fine and I went in and updated everything via yum.<br>Trouble begins then since the computer won't boot to the new kernel (2.6.17-1.2174_FC5
) It hung after "Red Hat nash version 5.0.32 starting". Just sits there.<br><br>Anyways, I noticed that before "Red Hat nash version 5.0.32 starting", I saw a bunch of "Buffer I/O on /dev/hdg2" errors, so I thought that was the problem.
<br>I replaced both of the 80GB with 2 new 160GB., reran the install. It went fine, detected the HDs and all, but now similar problem happens right after rebooting after the install (kernel 2.6.15), so I didn't actually get to the part where you setup your soundcard, etc because (again) it hung after "Red Hat nash version
5.0.32 starting". Any suggestions? Thanks guys. :) <br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Registered Linux user no. 384430
