Fedora Installation error Unknown interrupt or fault at EIP 00.6********************

[Justin]

Dear All:
   
  I encountered an installation error when I installed Fedora Core 5 with my burned ISO at
Compac Presario SR1010NX but no error at Dell Dimension 5150. The error is something like
" Unknown interrupt or fault at EIP 00.6 ************************". After the
error, the computer is rebooted. 
   
  Can anyone give me suggestions?
   
  Thanks,
   
  Justin

At which anaconda screen are you up to when it announces the
fault  ?
Was it install or upgrade ?
Have you had linux on the Compaq before ?
If you can repeat the install failure, it would be worth watching the 
installer logs on VT4 (ctrl-alt-f4 {or f3, I forget}), and pasting those 
messages.

The error occurs after I hit "enter" key at the "boot:" screen. First,
it loads some "img", then reports the errors many times, and reboots system
automatically. I cannot control, and cannot read any installation logs. 
   
  This computer can be installed Redhat Linux 9 from the book "SAMs teach yourself
Redhat Linux 9 in 24  hours" (ISBN 0-672-32587-x) succesfully. 
   
  Any more suggestions?
   
  Thanks,
   
  Justin
