I downloaded FC2 at 1.9.1, disk1 and disk2, iso format from UK mirror. Created boot CD-Rom and started FC install. First disk completed OK. Install called for second CD-Rom and resumed install. The install ran to within estimated 2 minutes of completion, and hung at the Nautilis install. The keyboard did not respond at this point in the install and I had to power down. When I now power up the PC and boot Linux, it fails with various error messages, including: Partition check: Hda: hda1, hda2, .... <hda5> apm disabled on user request Attempt to access beyond end of advice 03:06: rw=0, want=2, limit=0 EXT2-fs: unable to read superblock ..... FAT bread failed .... Kernel panic: VFS : Unable to mount root fs on 03:06 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FC2 1.9.1 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot FC2 (after install hangs - see above) Actual results: As described above Expected results: Boots without error Additional info: Probably result of FC2 install not completing
Did you verify your install media before beginning your install?
I definitely remember verifying Disk1. I will verify Disk2 and post back the results. I am going to take a different tack for now. I am going to attempt to upgrade another machine which already has FC1 successfully installed on it and post those results.
