FW: Problem with Fedora core 8 installer

["Arno Weterings" <aweterings@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

 

The option you gave me worked very well, my next problem is with the installer, when I run the installdisk check it says the dvd is good, I run the installer, selecting partitions, software etc, and then the installer start installing. After the formatting stuff the installer come with the can’t find package error. The only options are retry and reboot. How can this happen while my install-disc is correct. Please help

 

Gr Arno

When you get the first menu to install/upgrade fedora, press TAB and append these lines to the existing line

floppy.allowed_mask=0 clocksource=acpi_pm

Also if you have many extra non-standard software installed on your last Fedora 7, that yum will not find on its standard repositories, then also it will hang on resolving dependencies at later stage. Therefore before upgrading, remove all extras.

I have faced all these issues myself.

Thanks.
Zee.
