Could you please hit Ctrl+F2 to switch to the shell and then collect logs from /tmp/ ? You can use a USB stick. After that, please attach the logs as single files to this bugreport. Since this only seems to occur when installing from an install DVD copied to a USB stick and installing on a new unformatted SSD drive, and occured on three different machines I was building, I lack any more hardware to test this or provide the information you request. Since I now realize that BIOS versions may also play a part, on one system I can dd the ISO to a USB drive and it boots, the other two require unetbootin. At this point I don't expect to have time or hardware to investigate before fc16 goes EOL, so when I build the next box I will try with fc17 and see if I can capture the information requested. Ok, I'm going to close this bug, if it re-occurs with F17 please open a new bug. |
Created attachment 575570 [details] Error screen jpg photo Description of problem: Every attempt to install on stand alone hardware from DVD hangs by going into a network install mode. These are not network installs! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 16 (x86_64) How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot off DVD 2. Start install to new unformatted SSD 3. Asks for network at the "write boot sector" stage Actual results: Asks for unavailable network connection, will not bypass that pop-up Expected results: Install using data from the DVD Additional info: Fedora 14 installed on the original hard drive under identical conditions. There are other drives with data which are being seen but not selected as part of the install.
