I'm trying to boot the old fc9 live CD on a Dell Optiplex 755. It gets to the point where X is supposed to start and the screen goes wonky, apparently crashes. I tried various boot options, e.g. resolution=640x480 and nomodeset, no help. Can't do dmesg since it never gets far enough. Ctl alt f1 doesn't give a console. How can I troubleshoot this? What other boot options should I try? Google doesn't show a lot of hits when I search for problems with the 755s and fedora, could I just be cursed or something? fc8 and previous had problems with SATA drives on this model Dell, could that be it? Can I run the live cd in text mode? thanks., Dave -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
