Ouch! The memory will be a bit limited, and the processor a bit slow, but that looks like it’s a SiS chipset on a PCChips motherboard. I had a lot of problems with those. > The problem in fact is, that Anacando doesn't > recognize any hard drive.

Fedora (from 7 onwards, I believe) uses the new libata set of drivers exclusively. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelCommonProblems may also be worth reviewing for its treatment of kernel and module parameters. I believe Fedora 10 has a lot of ATA drivers built-in, but it doesn’t look like ata_generic is. It looks like on Fedora 10, you can append ata_generic.all_generic_ide=1 to the kernel boot line, and you’ll be more likely to detect the disk. Do you need a more detailed walkthrough of where to set those parameters? You’ll need to do it when booting the install media, and then make sure grub picks it up – you might find it easier, to begin with, simply to edit the grub command line each time you boot. Hope this helps, James. -- E-mail: james@ | The winds, however, get very lazy that time of year; they aprilcottage.co.uk | don't bother going around you, they just go right on | through. | -- Joe Zeff -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
