Description H Oudenhoven 2006-10-31 22:57:37 UTC
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place FC-6-i386-disc1.iso in drive
2. Reboot computer
3. As anaconda runs, make selections for Language(English), Keyboard(US), and
Installation method(Local CDROM).
  
Actual results: At this point anaconda says: No driver found


Expected results: proceed with installation


Additional info: I'm puzzled as to why the installation program should fail to
recognise the drive (an ASUS DRW-1608P3S) at this stage of the process since it
must be using a driver to have got this far! Is this not correct? Nevertheless,
I went on to the next window (Select Device Driver to Load) and tried all the
drivers but without success. I'm not sure what to do from here.

What hardware is your system?

Comment 2 H Oudenhoven 2006-11-06 20:08:33 UTC
My system's motherboard is an Intel DP965LT. I had previously installed FC5 and
had the same problem along with another one to do with the generation of sound
(see Bugs 209203 and 209221). In a reply to one of the previous bug reports I
was advised that the bug would/might be sorted out in FC6. Unfortunately, the
FC6 installation is giving me the same two problems, but I will create another
bug report for the other.

This bug is open for a Fedora version that is no longer maintained and

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen thus bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
