I have been laboring with the installation of FC4 for the past 3 days on Vmware with ZERO success.
I have downloaded the FC4 DVD and CD ISO images, and verified the checksums.
I tried to install FC4 on Vmware virtual machine, using first on GSX Server, then on Workstation 4.5 and finally on Workstation 5.0. On all three platforms i get the same problems:
When using the DVD ISO image, the installer claims that there is no Installation CD
When using the CD ISO image, anaconda fails miserably with message "install exited abnormally"
I tried the following options on boot: linux ide=nodma linux noprobe linux nofb linux text
Nothing works.
Please, this is becoming truly ridiculous, especially since i have installed FC2, RHEL, WhiteBox Linux without any problems on all these vmware versions
To get fedora to install on my vm server I have to shut down all other machines on my server and do the install. Then all is well. Not sure and have called vm about it but no answer yet.
