I have been saving all the threads concerning FC4 instalation problems from the beginning, but the problem I ran into was not covered in opne of them. Also, the solutions presented to various probems from fedorafaq and fedoraforum failed to present me with a working install. After the About to Install screen I get this warning: Error about informing the kernel about modifications to /dev/hda3- device or resource busy. So I Ignore it and an immediatly presented with: Exception occured. There is a lot of debug info. I saved it to a floppy, but the file is somehow corrupted. Some things that may or may not be related: - The media failed the check, but I was not concerned because I had seen on other threads that this is common, also on FC3 the media failed the check. - During the entire setup, the screen is fishbowled. - Because I don't intend this to be a dual-boot like I had with FC3, I booted into windows one last time and used Partion Magic 8 to erase the /boot and / partions. Now the entire 20 gigs is one big partion. I told DiskDruid to erase everything on the disk, and create a 100 meg /boot, 12000 meg /, and 8000 meg /home. - I tried with and without the option linux ide-nodma as per suggestion on fedorafaq. No difference. Thanks in advance. Dotan Cohen http://lyricslist.com/lyrics/artist_albums/321/madonna.php Madonna Song Lyrics
