dump of anaconda
workaround bij booting linux ide=nodma Rudi van Drunen So using 'linux ide=nodma' worked for you? Yep, ide=nodma did work, but the bottomline is that I problably have faulty hardware, 'cause once installed I see 'data garbling' (like the file /usr/bin/gmc, sometimes reads differently from disk (the md5sum changes between boots, while Linux does not seem to touch it). Anyways, I ordered Dell to replace the disk. Hope this helps. Rudi Ok. Faulty hardware is a pain to deal with, because it can make software do really strange things. I hope things will work ok with the new hardware. I had a similar failure and I tried all manner of installation options until I came across this bug report. I tried booting with "expert ide=nodma" and it worked. *** Bug 53632 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 54547 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 55177 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 55370 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
