No, It's not booting whatever I do... Computer details: CPU: AMD XP 2200+ MB: ASUS A7V600-X HDD: SAMSUNG SATA,80 GB If I install Fedora Core 3 on SAMSUNG SATA harddisk, the kernel freeze after displaying: RedHat nash 4.1.18 ... If I install Fedora Core 3 on a IDE SEAGATE harddisk , the kernel freeze after displaying: ata1: If I remove the SATA harrddisk, the kernel boots. I also cannot install Fedora Core 2 if the SATA harddisk is connected. It freeze when installing after starting the X server. Windows XP is working great with this computer.It has no problem with SATA harddisk so any hardware defect is excluded. regards, Ionut Radu. On Fri, 12 Nov 2004 10:10:04 +0000, Paul F.
