I have downloaded the DVD ISO file from the 64bits version of Fedora Core 3 and I have some problems.

My computer has an Asrock K8-Upgrade-1689 motherboard with an on-board LAN chip RTL8201.

During install this chip is not recognized and therefore I can not install a network connection.

After installation, when the pc boots, the software hangs most of the times searching for new hardware. Only sometimes it boots completely, but without a network which I also can not configure because of the missing chip info.

What can I do about this?



Thanks in advance.

Dear Mr. Mussche

well, the fastest way (at least that i know of) would be if you put another lan card into that motherboard, and dont use that one right now, then, after the install, you build your own kernel with support for the rtl8201 chipset, or use a pre built module, if available, from one of the repositories...

I hope that helped you some further...
