I guess there are certain hardware level features implemented by
manufacturer to enhance performace or functionality (for windows)
which is not understood by linux. I tried to install FC5, then tried
FC4 then SUSE 10 but all three stopped with different error message.
What I remember is FC4 says its USB related error while other two gave
different error. Also tried to install in text mode but no luck.
