I'm testing the driver disk by booting from the boot.iso CD for FC2, and
from the disk1 CD for FC1, then entering "linux dd" at the prompt. For
both FC1 and FC2 I'm prompted to supply the driver disk, the Advansys
SCSI card is detected, the module is extracted from the moduleball and
loaded, apparently successfully, into the kernel (I can see the
detection of the attached SCSI disks in the console messages screen).
On FC1, the installer then goes on to ask me if I want to use any
further driver disks, at which point I say "no" and it loads the tulip
driver for my network card from the distribution media and continues
with the installation.
However, on FC2, the installer seems to hang with a nearly blank
screen at this point.
OK, nobody's bitten on this one, but I've now heard of another person
having a similar problem, where his driver disk for a Highpoint RAID
card caused a similar hangup straight after loading (see
http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/dkms-devel/2004-September/000200.html).
So my new question is: has *anyone* got *any* driver disk to work with
the FC2 installer? If so, could you point me to a copy of the driver
disk so I could have a look at it?
For the archives: this was Bug #122952
(http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=122952), which appears to
be fixed in Fedora Core 3 Test 3.
