Hi list,
I just tried installing core 2 test 2 on my computer. Both the graphical and the text installer quit after trying to detect other fedora installations for about 1 minute... (I dont have any)
My partition layout:
/dev/hde1 NTFS (Windows XP) /dev/hde5 ReiserFS (empty, reserved for fedora) /dev/hde6 ReiserFS (Gentoo Linux)
My Hardware:
ASUS A7N8X Deluxe (AMD Processor mobo with NForce2 Chipset) 1.5 GB RAM AMD Athlon XP 2400+ 2 Seagate native SATA Harddrives Onboard SATA Controller (Does work with 2.6.3 (siimage) but doesn't with any later kernels... Due to a performance enhancing patch. Already informed the LKML)
I think all other hardware is kinda irrelevant because stuff like sound and video shouldn't matter in a text install, but that one fails too...
Do you need any more Information? Feel free to ask ;) Hope we can get this figured...
cya Harald Glatt (hachre)
