Hi,

I have a multiboot system which contain Fedora 18. I try to install Fedora 14, but when i boot and i choose the seconde option of the boot menu, the screen become dark and i haven't the installation process.

I try the same install DVD in another PC and it seems ok.


Could help me.

Not having any idea what that option is, not directly. However, I have a thought, if there is an option for "install using basic graphics mode" or something like that, I would try that, since your problem could be caused by video driver suckage. The newer kernels aren't a lot better about deciding when to use 'nomodeset' and when not, although when you force the option the new drivers do work much better in most case.

The text mode install is your last resort, if nothing else works try that. I have to fight that on many installs, and (sorry to say) use the vendor drivers from RPMfusion. I'm just happy they exist, no matter how much Linus dislikes the vendors, I do know about NDA on chips.

HTH
