Hey guys, I just got an eVGA 680i motherboard last night and attempted to install Fedora FC6 on it using the network install option. The problem is that when it got to detecting my network card, it recognized that I got 2 network interfaces called MCP55 and when it tries to grab an IP address using DHCP, it just fails quitely. I tried both interfaces but to no avail. I can't seem to get FC6 to install on this new chipset. Now here is the quirky thing... On a long shot, I tried doing the same thing with FC5 and guess what... It recognized the network card! Sigh... anyone had any luck with installing FC6 on this board? Any work around ideas?
Can you clarify what you mean by "it fails quietly"? How is the failure evident? -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L. Friedman netllama@xxxxxxxxx LlamaLand http://netllama.linux-sxs.org
