(can't belive I posted wrong again! :P sorry ) Sorry about my previous post, I was kinda pissed that my PC kept rebooting. I am trying to install Fedora Core 2, I have tested all the Cd's to make sure they have passed. And they did. I am running, 366MHz Intel Celeron processor, 4MB ATI Rage IIC, 64MB SDRAM, 20gig hard drive space and yes I'm trying to get the distro just to install and then install a lightweight windows manager (eg. fluxbox). This is the problem. I partition like this. / = fill max. /boot = 100MB <swap> = 190MB And btw fill max. means, Fill to maximum allowable size, I thought that was pretty clear but OK. Everything starts to install just fine. But when I put in CD 2, and about 3 minutes into the install, it reboots my computer. I checked to see if anybody else had this problem and it only happends to people with a ASUS P4P800 motherboard, or a VIA C3 processor, two of which I do not have. And as I stated in my original post, I have already successfully installed Red Hat 9 with no problems. I hope thats enough detail, I can't really think about anything else to add. Except that I have tried to install three times, thought it might be an over heating thing, its not. Right now I got out my old win98 CD and had to install it (BLEH!) and now I'm running win98, though I installed fedora core 2, just the minimum. Worked fine because it only used CD 1. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really love to get off this win98 OS!!!! ------------------------------------------------------ Megahertz wrote: Question: 1.

It would be nicer to hear what you are trying to install NOW, so that we may help you. I'm assuming Fedora Core 2? Always give ALL information please. 2. / = fill max. And what pray tell is fill max? You don't even specify how big your hard disk is. /boot = 100mb <swap> = 190mb thoes good values ? Sure, why not. Im running 366MHz Intel Celeron processor. 64MB SDRAM. Dude, that is very tight. You're not installing graphically are you? Regards, Ed. ------Original Post---------------------------------- Question: 1.
