I'm finally trying to install FC6. This one is a Sony Vayo laptop. I did read the release notes and I know about the kernel options. If I do use them, I get a kernel panic. Perhaps because my disk is scsi, and the options set ide1=something. That's not my problem though. My troubles are with the network card. When I get to configuring the packages, I want to add fedora extras. It then pops up a window asking me to configure the network card. I have an onboard intel interface, and the wireless that comes with centrino. The installer only sees one, the onboard eth0. If I leave it on dhcp, the installer gives me an error (Unhandled exception) and tells me to save the details and file a bug. How on earth would I save the logs? I have two options: OK and Debug. If I click OK, it reboots. If I click Debug, it puts me at a debugger prompt. If it was a C program, I'd know what to do, but its python. If I configure the network manually, with IPv6 enabled, it wants me to enter the IPv6 address and mask. I'm giving myself a private 192.168.1.20/255.255.255.0 IPv4 address, but I don't know what to do about the IPv6 address. I did try to disable IPv6 support alltogether, but then I still get the same unhandled error as with dhcp. I can try to skip network configuration and not add any extra repository during install, and hope that I can do all this later, but it would be nice to see mplayer and other stuff installed from the beginning. Any pointers, anyone? Thanks!
