User-Agent: Opera/7.54 (X11; Linux i686; U)  [en]

Description of problem:
When installing Fedora Core 3, test 2 on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo M 
8800 laptop, with Norwegian keyboard, an error occurs when starting 
the installer.

This error occurs both when chosing graphic and text-based installer. 
In text-mode I get a text error (written down here), and in graphic 
mode the screen is blocked by boxes.

The computer is currently running Fedora Core 2 (release). The 
installer with FC2 ran without problems, although LCD screen screen 
had to be set to 'Generic LCD screen' (auto-detect did not work)

Here is the error received in text mode (screenshots attached for 
both graphic and text mode):
