I tried to run the F8 install on a Dell D610 and it came to a halt at the same point as in http://marc.info/?l=fedora-list&m=119457240222172&w=2
i.e. at mounting /tmp as ramfs... done running install running /sbin/loader
it simply hangs...at this point.
Does anyone else find this on similar machines, and if so do you have a work around?

This worked for me too on a Compaq EVO N1020v where I had a similar problem.
Thanks, Marcel

Good. It would be useful if folks having succesful runs around the same problems, create appropriate wiki entries connected to their Smolt profiles in the above website.
Smolt is a hardware profiler connected to rating and ompatibility information.
# yum install smolt # smoltSendProfile
Click on the link it provides you. On the top you would have the system model information. Clicking on that would link you to the Smolt wiki where you can provide any information you want on your particular hardware. Your profile would also have other hardware lists that you can rate by different criterias. Others can see your rating and connected wiki documentation too.

That seems indeed useful. I just didn't know of the existence.
Thanks for the information, Marcel

For me smoltSendProfile gives the profile in the terminal window but when I click "yes" to upload it, then the system just sits there and times out. This has been happening regularly in recent days on other machines also... so I cannot add this until the smolt server issues are sorted out.
