List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2003 22:12:41 -0000 I Downloaded the following three files. yarrow-i386-disc1.iso yarrow-i386-disc2.iso yarrow-i386-disc3.iso I'm using the apolo synth, An athalon 2100 plus processor, I have rh8 currently installed on a secondary ide drive which is about 80GB. That's hdb1 threw 4 if memory serves. I have the windows partition which has 80gb for winblows and 40GB for linux files converted to fat32 so I can read and write from linux. There's a 56K modem, 100MB network card and a tifoon digital sound card. Connected to the PCI bus. There's 512MB of ram, a sound blaster odgity, a dimond viper video card which I think is a 32 bit card. There's usually a pianeer DVD cd drive that's disconnected as it was conflicting with something in windows, a cdrw drive which is now in its place. =20 I think that's it. Come to think of it, I'll try it with the dvd cd rom to see if there's a difference. =20 Darragh =D3 H=E9iligh Web site: http://www.digitaldarragh.com ************************************************ This address is private.

Subject: Re: Fedora aint workin So, you're booting from a CD ROM that you created from the boot.iso image? First suggestion is to run a md5sum check. But, I'm not sure how you do that without Linux. It might be helpful to get the error messages--at least in part. What hardware are you using? Darragh writes: > From: "Darragh" >=20 > I do apologise.
