Re: Fedora 11 install issue

I had a similar experience on a Dell Inspiron 2650 laptop with 512M
memory.  It's a 32 bit machine of course, unlike yours.  I could install
FC 10, but when I tried FC11, it died about where your install does.  I
also tried Ubuntu and Kubuntu live 9.04 cds. None of the current
distributions worked on that laptop. 

While my solution is certainly not for everyone, I considered the
Pentium 4 in the laptop, updated the installed FC10, sold the laptop,
and bought a new Inspiron 15n (1545).  I haven't tried putting FC11 on
the new laptop yet, but I bet it works just fine. (and it's not a
Pentium 4 anymore)  ;)

Cheers,
Gar
