I have a freshly installed FC5 system on a machine that was running FC4 until today. It has an Athlon processor and an onboard Trident Cyberblade graphics card, as well as a Radeon 7000 PCI card, and the monitor is plugged into the Radeon card. It would not do a graphical install at all, so I did a text install - and this appeared successful. However, once complete it refused to enter firstboot - and crashed as soon as X tried to start. I have been unable to get past that point ! I had severe problems last year - see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=169637 for the problems relating to fc4. I have started a new bugzilla report at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=189631 I can't get it to boot into runlevel 3 or 5, but I can use CD1 to get into rescue mode. If anyone has any suggestions as to how I might be able to progress please post. Thanks Mike -- mike cohler
