This probably due to the sata drives... Did you try installing on a pata drive ?

One has WinXP on it and other is just a Data partition. The drive is a SATA Drive. When I reach the step which has the various partitions option on it the Fedora installer cannot recognize the drive. So I cannot go ahead. Did any one face such a problem? I was trying to install Fedora 8. svengurlekar> svengurlekar> I also tried installing FC8 on another machine which is a Dell Dimension 5150 which also has a Sata drive on it with 3 partitions one being for data and another for WINXP. On this machine the installer hangs after the vmlinuz and the initrd lines on Ready and doesn’t go ahead. Tried using the normal installation and text installation option but same problem. svengurlekar> svengurlekar> Thanks svengurlekar> Sushant svengurlekar> svengurlekar> -- Test <test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
