The last computer I worked on that had this problem was due to having the SDR memory voltage, normally 3.0V, pinned out on the motherboard to the DDR memory voltage, 2.5V. After I checked te complete set of pin outs, I discovered the error, the user was playing repair man, corrected it and FC2 installed as smooth as a baby's bottom.Rick Lim wrote:
I have a ASUS P5A-B AMD-K6-2/500 which I have installed FC2 with a non Xwindows install and it works ok, when I try a FC2 install with Xwindows about ¾ thru the install it suddenly reboots.

Is there a work around?
How much memory do you have? How much swap? There's a chance that you're running out of memory.
What sort of network connection do you have? Try installing a minimal FC2, then getting yum to install X, Gnome, and whatever else you want.
Hope this helps,

Check out the fundamentals on the motherboard to be sure they are set correctly. Usually, hangups during isntallation of an operating system, even blendoze, indicated a memory or voltage problem. Hope this helps.
