Created attachment 1235284 [details] The Error Message Description of problem: I downloaded the Fedora 25 Workstation Live DVD and burn it on a DVD. And attempt to install it on my desktop. The motherboard of my desktop is "AsRock B75 Pro-M", which has a AsMedia SATA3 controller on it to provide extra SATA3 ports (only 1 SATA3 port was from the Intel B75 chipset). I have multiple hard drives, I connected the one that I plan to install the system on and the CD/DVD reader to the SATA3 ports provided by the AsMedia controller. When attempt to start the Fedora 25 Live Error message that contains following text pop up "ata8.00: exception Emask 0x52 SAct 0x0 SErr 0xffffffff action 0xe frozen", and the system just hang. When I reboot, I was able to boot into the Live System, however, when I click the "Install Fedora to Hard Drive" button the system just froze forever. Later I fixed it by connect all Drives and the CD/DVD reader to the ports that are provided by the Intel Chipset instead of the ports by the AsMedia controller. After changing the ports, I successfully install Fedora, and have no other problem. So I think the AsMedia SATA controller is the reason why the installation failed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 25 Workstation Live CD How reproducible: I have attempt to boot and install for at least a dozen times, either the Error message pop, or the Live System froze. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Connect a hard drive or a CD/DVD reader to the SATA3 ports by AsMedia Controller 2.Boot with Live CD 3.Error Message Pop (Unable to boot to the Live System) or Froze when click "Install Fedora to Hard Drive" buttons (If able to boot into the Live System) ama Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
