Hi,

I'm completly new to Fedora/Redhat and used former SuSE Prof. So hi there.
:)

Today I tried to install Fedora Core 1 tomy Compaq Presario Notebook, type
is 919EA.
The system freezes already at the language selection, the LED for the
harddisk goes on and stays so. Even after a while no further choices could
be done, system is dead.
I already investigated the release notes and tried different switches to the
kernel as well, without any success.
I read that on the Sony Vaio in case of problems the options pci=off and
ide1=<0xadress1>, <0xadress2> should be used, but where do I get these
adresses from? Using just pci=off results to a kernel panic (of course).

Any hints, tips and tricks appreciated, regards, Thomas

Did you try going into the bios settings and turning off legacy USB support? Had to do that on 2100 series Presario laptops.
