Re: anaconda hangs during Fedora Core 6 upgrade attempt

["darren holland" <hollanddd@xxxxxxxxx>]

hi Bruce, i had problems with that. it could be the dvd images are bad. i resort to installing all my fedora core releases via http or ftp. that way if one hangs up you just go to the next mirror site. burn a cd image of the fedora rescue cd and of course you must have a high speed internet connection.

I have a 64-bit AMD-based system which currently runs Fedora Core 4
(64-bit version) very peacefully. I recently downloaded a DVD image of
Core 6 of the same, burned it, and tried to install. It goes through the
HW detection process and all seems well, but about 45-50 seconds after
displaying the "Running anaconda"* prompt, there is no more disk access
and anaconda just hangs silently. I've tried a text install and
installing without HW detection; no difference.

Any suggestions?
