Thanks Arjan, but this voodoo spell did not work... What I determined so far is: * boot stops earlier if I do not pass acpi=off * wioth acpi=off boot stops after PS/2 mouse and KB recognition * I can proceed further by either adding noapic or by switching to USB mouse _and_ keyboard ( can not find any setting in the bios for disabling PS/2 emulation). I could do a more detailed report on monday, when I will get back at work. FWIW, I could not boot also with the Linux Firmware Kit cdrom I have around here, not even with the "safe" mode. I guess this is going to be tricky installation... -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
