A Little correction: Its a Pentium3 and not PII -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Fedora 4 does not boot after sucessfull intall Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2005 12:25:12 -0300 From: Gustavo Gouvea <gustavo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx References: <200509121702.j8CH2I2G028002@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> <1126550201.7862.4.camel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Hi everyone, Im instaling a Fedora 4 on a PII 1000MHz, 256MB, Asus CUV4X-C, 80GB HD Maxtor (Latest Bios, and have tried all BIOS available). The instalation goes fine, but on the first boot, I see the grub screen, hit any arrow. I see the boot list, hit enter, and the system hangs, and I only see this on the screen: --------- Booting 'Fedora core (2.6.11-1.1369_FC4) root (hd0,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partion type 0x83 kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 ro root=LABEL=/ [Linux-bzimage, setup=0x1e00, size=0x18e473] initrd /initrd-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.img [Linux-initrd @ 0xfedd000, 0x10e5eb bytes] --------- I think the next message would be "Umcompressing linux", but this never shows up. I have tried to edit the boot loader params, removing "quiet" and "rhgb", but the same happens. I tried a new install and choose the auto-partition option. So it used a LVM on the drive. I am able to enter the rescue mode with "linux rescue", and than chroot /mnt/sysimage. But what can I do? Already tried "grub-instal /dev/hda"... Any ideias??? I Apreciate any comments. Thanks a lot.
