Hi all...

First of all, I'm new to this list. Thanks in advance for the help I surely
will get here ;)

I have installed a CentOS 5.2 64 bit on a computer, and I can't get it to
boot.
The box is a custom built computer, with this components:

- ASUS P5N64 WS Pro motherboard (nForce 790i Ultra SLI)
 More details here: http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=11&l3=653&l4=0&model=2182&modelmenu=1
- Intel Core Quad Q9450
- GeForce GTX 260
- 2x2Gb of 1333 memory
- SATA 500Gb hd and SATA DVD (sata ports 1 and 2).

I booted with the DVD and installed the system fine, but when I try to
boot from the HD, the boot process just stops after inird loading, the kernel
doesn't even start.

I also tried with the CentOS 5.2 live CD, but it stops claiming that can not
find the boot disk ???

Has someone similar problems ? What could I try to boot ?

I have had the same problems with a similar machine recently. The kernel coming with CentOS 5.1 worked, however no further update ever did. Only way to make newer kernels work was to set up Compatible mode by BIOS, alas performance suffers a lot.
I filed a bug at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=467308, some work at upstream seems to be underway. HTH
Ah, y Bienvenido!
