I have installed Fedora 8 on my PC, which works fine, however if a disc

GDM loads.
If I boot with no disc in the drive all is ok, but if I then load a
disc, the system freezes (in X) and reboots (in console runlevel 3).
Bizarre, really bizarre - it isn't often I get a report which is entirely
unique but you've managed it - well unless you are using the Nvidia
binary drivers for 3D on Nvidia cards ?
Can you tell me what SATA controller you have and what the rest of the
system is (lspci -vvxx would be good). It would be best if you opened a
bug in bugzilla.redhat.com and let me know its number. I can take it from
there.
Other useful information would be the boot messages ("dmesg") when it
boots up without rebooting.

Hi Alan (and list)
No, I am not using the Nvidia binary drivers, just the 'nv' module.
I have opened a bug in bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=428023
and attached the requested outputs.
Many thanks.
Stewart
