Nobody answered this before. Is this a really tough one? Can anybody give suggestions?
I'm brand new to Linux. I have a socket 7 system on which I installed Red Hat 9, clean and alone, but the installation reports an error in the USB area.
I'm getting "USB HC TakeOver failed!"
A couple of weeks of searching and reading has not gotten me any closer to understanding what's wrong or how to fix it.
I've tried switching from ohci to uhci, but I got the same error message, and, from what I read, I think the SiS 7001 controller is an ohci device.
Can anyone suggest what's wrong?
Based on some of the messages I've read, below are some system facts that may help diagnose the cause.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Ralph Kenyon
