I have an ASUS P4G8X-Deluxe using the Silicon image on-board SATA
RAID.
On install, the two raid drives are detected as hde and hdg (why no hdf?!?)
[hdf would be the slave if that port was used pata not sata]
The same SATA boot problems are still happening... once again, the
grey PC
boot screen comes up and dies when it gets to "Setting Hostname". So that's
where my testing on that machine ended.
This is after the install finished ok ? If so try things like
acpi=off apm=off pci=usepirqmask pnpbios=no
and see if anything helps
Also, any idea why FC2 is giving me two kernels? I don't have a
twin CPU
machine (I recently put a a 533Mhz P4 3.06Ghz into my box) so now I can't
see why I am getting an SMP kernel as an added bonus.
With hyperthreading - if so the SMP kernel choice is there to use that.
Also, I tried installing test2 on a really old Pentium I machine in
text
mode. When it came time to swap CDs, the computer decided to reset itself
instead. When I retried the install with no extra packages (and no CD
change) install was OK on that machine.
How much ram ?
