I have the same problem, with a Motherboard Intel D815EPEA2. BIOS version EA81520A.86A.0031.P17. Processor Pentrium III 933 MHz. Memory 256 MB (one PC133). AGP video card Creative CT6971. Ver. 4.0, chip NVidia Geforce 256 DDR vers. 2.10.4.04.02, 32 Mb video ram. What are the last few messages on VC3 and VC4 when it freezes? Meanwhile, I re-installed from zero my RedHat version 7.2, and it performed OK until the end of installation. Maybe this may tell you something, as both install programs are very similar. More information in RedHat site, Service request 206622. gershen.mx How may I get the information on VC3 and VC4? Hit 'cntl-alt-f3' and 'cntl-alt-f4' during the install. Lines on VC3: anaconda floppy choice fd0 Detect 256M of Memory Swap attempt of 250M to 512M Lines on VC4: <4> hdc:ATAPI reset complete <6> CDrom: open failed (Then hda and hdb and their partitions) <6> ADDING SWAP: 522104K swap-space (priority-1) <4> spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7 (this last line was the last to appear, it appeared some minutes after all others were there; the install froze about 10-15 seconds after this line appeared). Arjan do you have any suggestions on kernel boot options to try with this hw? 2 things might be worth it: mem=xxxM where xxx is 16 less than the amount of memory in megabytes also if the bios has a "MPTABLE version" thing, try toggling that to the other setting
I had the same problem.. I had a M$ natural pro kbd with the usb and ps2 ports
plugged in. I unplugged the Usb port I tried the install using "linux text
noprobe" and ran just the wk installation and what do you know it worked... I am
going back to install with anaconda with the usb unplugged to see if it works...
>AHHHH Yeahhhh!!!! it works....
>mount of /proc/bus/usb failed.. on VC3....
