FC3 2.6.10 Install Without Floppy or NIC

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Okay, without going into a ton of detail, here are the facts...

1. I cannot boot the 2.6.9 kernel on my laptop unless I disable ACPI;
2. If I disable ACPI, my NIC stops functioning;
3. I CAN boot the 2.6.10 kernel on my laptop without disabling anything;
4. I want to do a clean install of FC3;
5. I do not have a floppy drive (forgot why I am mentioning that);
6. I have all of the FC3 CDs burned and ready; and,
7. I downloaded the entire "update" directory and have 2.6.10 on that CD.


Now the question...

What the heck do I do now!?!?!?  =(

If I install FC3, I will have to disable ACPI to get it to complete the install. Rumor has it that, if I disable ACPI during the install, that it will not be available when I install the new kernel.

Please help end the confusion.

Thanx,
Ryan
