The install is dying when I try to upgrade from FC4 to FC6 on my AMD64 3400+ machine. It freezes just after identifying the video card, which is a nVidia GeForce 6600. Everything was running fine with FC4. I thought the Audigy Sound Blaster card might be the problem and pulled it, but no joy. I have tried to install both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of FC6 with the same result. Any ideas?
I just did a similar upgrade. It did not lock up on the nvidia 440 MX chipset on my AMD64 box. It did go into a panic loop after the install and I had to hand reboot it. I am now picking up the pieces trying to get mail and postgrey to work correctly again. (As well as cursing that pine has such a stupid license that it cannot be included in core.)
