The GUI versions will crash on "Transferring install image to hard drive" without fail every time for sever install. Seems independant of what I am selecting. I did get the install to tell it worked with the workstation using the GUI install. But then on reboot, it stalls on looking for a boot disk. It doesnt see anything?? Do I need to set the boot to run from a different disk? I burned the CD's on a Sony 24x burner... using KODAK GOLD cd's, but I have not problems with ANY cd I have ever burned. Both my main computer and server are new as of 4 months. -S. Bob Transfering to kernel component. Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/ |

Also this isnt what happened the time when I got the <0>Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! message. Expected Results: It should have installed. Additional info: What a pain this is. I would devote some time to brainstorming a digital way to capture a BSOD dump. It took a sum of 10 minuets to copy that.... It was also crashing on the normal install same place and the lowres install same place. But I could not get any info from that. I ran the 'linux mediacheck' on all 3 cd's and all passed. I also looked for this problem in the bug database bugzilla, but I am not sure if I found anything truly similar. My computer spec: ================== AMD XP 1800+ (standard fan) Abit KR7A-133 MB (non-raid) 1024GB DDR WD 40 GB HDD S3 Virge V+ 1mb PCI graphics Sony 52x EIDE CDROM HP 1.44 mb Floppy HANA 14" monitor VGA Dell Quietkey 101 keyboard MS Intellimouse (scroll wheel) ============================== I was planning on using RedHat for my business, but from things like this I am not sure I want to. It doesnt seem you are any better off then windows. I am not in the habbit of paying for anything that doesnt function properly. alias: -Soldier Bob
