Hello everyone,
I've dowloaded the FC3 DVD via the bittorrent. MD5SUM is perfect. Mediacheck passes.
I'm trying to install it on a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 laptop. Had FC1 runnng perfect on it.
What happens is when trying to run anaconda it takes about 5 minutes to probe for my video driver and monitor/display and then takes another 5 minutes for my mouse. It identifies all of them, but it's soooooo slow. Once in anaconda it's 5 minutes in between config screens. By that I mean that when I press the "Next" button it takes 5 minutes to go to the next screen.
During that time there is no DVD, harddrive or cpu activity.
I tried "linux ide=nodma" as I saw a post that had it "stall" after seeing the "Disabling IRQ #11". No change.
Any ideas what I can do so that it runs like normal?
Thanks,
Kevin
It could be a bad burned dvd or a bad support. The data is not corrupted but the drive can read it only at low velocities. Try burn again with another cd vendor.
