Fedora 8 install failure

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I'm trying to install Fedora 8 x86_64 on my HP Compaq 8710p laptop.
The DVD boots fine, I tell the install to do a new install, come to the blue screen that loads some drivers and end up at the disk check requester. After the check is done (or skipped),
/sbin/loader blows me away with a SIGSEGV error and shuts down the system.

I have also tried to install Ubuntu 7.10 and OpenSUSE 10.3. They install and works flawlessly.
However, I'm a Fedora guy ;-)

Any suggestions?

Some system facts:

Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T7700 @ 2.40GHz
4 GB RAM
ST9120823AS hard disc
NVIDIA Quadro NVS 320M graphics card
TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-L632M
Intel 82566MM Gigabit LAN
Intel WiFi Link 4965AG

Additional info

The Fedora 8 KDE LIVE CD/DVD seems to boot up just fine. Can't make a
clean (swedish) install with this though.
