Am in middle of installing 64 bit Fedora 9 on a Phenom9600 machine with two 465 gig drives, dual boot with Vista sp1. The raid disk controller is from Nvidia (I was also surprised to see that they do something besides graphics.) However, I am NOT using any hardware raid, simply have it as two drives off a simple controller. I chose to customize the partitions and am using LVM partitions in most cases, even for root (/). I told it to create 4 LV across drives, and such. (Plus boot & swap. Also /tmp is on a LV spanning both drives. / is on one drive.) The problem is that it is OVER AN HOUR sitting at "Write changes to disk". The mouse pointer is frozen. Should I wait longer? Any advice on this for the next try? (I don't want the installer to grab all disk space, if I have a choice.) Fwiw, I tried booting Fedora 8, and the installer didn't even get of the ground. It was "looking for drivers" or something like that. Thank you. nat -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
