I'll try to profile this at the office tomorrow and see if there's any obvious slow spots being hit. Unfortunately, given where we are in the cycle, if not, I don't know that there's much choice as to what to do :/ I thought it was frozen too. It must have taken at least 20 minutes to get to 1% dependency check on a Compaq Deskprop Pentium 3 733MHz. Over the years, I have installed many versions of Fedora Core and some of other distributions on slow hardware, and FC6 is the slowest yet. About 90 minutes later and I'm stuck on "Preparing transaction from installation source: 0%". :-/ I went back and measured carefully. The dependency check took 24 minutes. The "Preparing transaction from" took only 23 minutes (after I added ide=nodma). Now I stuck on "Package Installation." From 0 to 6 packages took 15 minutes, and after 1 hour 37 minutes (from 0 packages), I'm still on package 6/793. Anaconda is running at maximum CPU, but there is some free memory. (This is FC5->FC6 on a Pentium III 733MHz.) |
