If you boot with 'ide=nodma' does it help? Three attempts (booting as "linux ide=nodma") later... three more aborts, abort occurred on a different package each time. Could this be an FC2 versus "dual-PIII's" thing? Or maybe FC2 doesn't like the P3TDE6 mobo's IDE controllers? God knows, I've got everything else disabled in the bios. Tried something different...plugged a SCSI CDRW drive into the P3TDE6's onboard SCSI adaptors... and booted FC2 install from there, (still installing to primary-master-IDE drive though)... and got all the way through the install using the same set of CDR's. Installing reading from secondary-master-ide CDRW and writing to primary-master-ide harddrive experienced random aborts... Installing reading from SCSI CDRW and writing to primary-master-ide harddrive works. Note: Was able to do a FreeBSD 5.2.1 install from that same secondary- master-ide CDRW drive to identical primary-master-ide harddrive without difficulties. (the HD is in a Vantec "drawer" and can be swapped to switch O.S. platforms. Both HD's were identical WD1200JB's.) So got FC2 installed, despite some lingering suspicions that something (maybe IDE related) is groaning a bit under very heavy load with both primary and secondary IDE controllers active simultaneously. Should be happier with FC3. |
