I have tried, without any luck, installing FC6 on two of my AMD64-based computers. Computer #1 is an HP m7640n that is a few months old. It has a dual-core AMD64 X2 5000+ CPU, and an nVidia GeForce 6150 LE display adapter. Computer #2 is one that I assembled, with an AMD64 4200+ CPU, and an nVidia display adapter. This box has FC4 on it, with no new hardware installed since that install. The install (AMD 64-bit version) stops dead after identifying the video card, in both cases. The "X" comes up and that's it. Someone mentioned furnishing parameters when installing on a box with an AMD64 CPU, but I can't seem to locate them. I'm about to pull my hair out, what little there is on top. Any help will be gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance...Jim
At the first install screen type "linux text".
