Couple of things occur to me. First, when you say your box does not boot do you mean that it does not recognize the disk as bootable? In that case, I'd be inclined to get myself a commercially-produced F11 disk. (CheapBytes.com, for example) Or that it does not POST? In that case .... :-( Second, as you have an Nvidia card, you will probably have to boot with the vesa option -- its one of the choices on the boot menu, and then install the driver later on. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
