Typo in my first post: Actually, I CANNOT boot CentOS 5 x64, so I try to boot FC7 x64 rescue CD first.
Oops is not in do_unblank screnn, it is before that and has scrolled off the page. Try booting in 50-line mode (add "vga=ask" to the kernel command line.) Then take a picture of the screen with a digital camera and post that.

Hello, I'm reviewing this bug as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to isolate current bugs in the fedora kernel. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage I am CC'ing myself to this bug and will try and assist you in resolving it if I can. There hasn't been much activity on this bug for a while. As this appears to be an installer bug it would be good if you could test the latest version of Fedora 8, available from: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution/Download so that we can resolve as many of these issues as possible. If the problem no longer exists then please close this bug or I'll do so in a few days if there is no additional information lodged. Cheers Chris
Hello, I have tried to download a recent fc8 development iso boot image only from http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/Linux/Fedora/development/x86_64/os/ kernel version: 2.6.23.1-42.fc8 (kojibuilder.redhat.com) #1 SMP Tue Oct 30 13:18:33 EDT 2007 It did boot normally to installation program, I did not continue the installation. I think this bug report should be resolved in FC8 release. Regards Patrick
You could also try the Fedora 7 respin: http://spins.fedoraunity.org/spins In any case, closing as fixed in rawhide, since we can't ever fix the original install disk.
