I am trying to install Fedora 8 (i386) onto a machine which is already

past the "Media check". Actually, after the media check installer throws
"loader received SIGSEGV!" and quits. I have tried the installer with noapic
and acpi=off options to no avail. I had no installation issues with Fedora 7.
Here is the smolt link for the laptop.

I have also tried booting with Fedora Live CD and Rescue CD but i get loader
crashes.
I had a similar problem with F7 last night. It was bad ram.
Get a copy of Memtest86 and test your ram. http://www/memtest86.com/
(Its free.)
