Re: CentOS 6 Installation on Thinkpad X220

["Janne TH. Nyman" <jnyman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

All resolved now. Thanks to Paul for pointing out the basics :)

This had nothing to do with the e1000e as I thought earlier. It has to
do with the AHCI mode set for the SATA interface.

These where the steps I took to resolve it:

1. Start Laptop
2. When first boot screen appears, press F1 to get into the BIOS setup
3. Go to Config > Serial ATA and change AHCI to Compatibility
4. Press F10 to save and reboot

Now it boots and installs. Since CentOS has an older kernel than RHEL
6.1 I am not able to get screen resolution etc to work so I will run
RHEL on this one as Keyboard keys, Web cam, Sound, Ericsson WLAN, all
just works :)


Thanks a lot for your help peeps.

Cheers,
Janne "Janski" Nyman
