Description of problem:
when i try to install fedora core 1 everything works ok. But after
formating the harddisk the installer try to tranfer the install image
and finish with this error:

"Error transferring install image to hard drive - probably out of disk
space"

i found that its related to DMA and some Intel chipsets. So when the
installer ask you to select the installation type (graphical, text,
rescue, etc) you have to append

ide=nodma

if you want a graphical installation ... type: linux ide=nodma

it works ... but its really slow. When the installation finish and the
machine is restarted you have to remove this option from
/etc/grub.conf to speed up your machine
