=Comment: #0================================================= Jochen Roth <jroth.com> - 2008-08-06 07:29 EDT I tried to install Fedora 10 Alpha on a QS21 from DVD media. The firmware is able to boot smoothly from the DVD media, but Anaconda doesn't recognize the usb attached media tray. This means that installation of Fedora 10 by using a DVD isn't possible right now: Welcome to Fedora for ppc +-----------------+ No driver found +------------------+ | | | Unable to find any devices of the type | | needed for this installation type. | | Would you like to manually select your | | driver or use a driver disk? | | | | +---------------+ +-------------------+ +------+ | | | Select driver | | Use a driver disk | | Back | | | +---------------+ +-------------------+ +------+ | | | | | +------------------------------------------------------+ =Comment: #1================================================= Jochen Roth <jroth.com> - 2008-08-06 07:29 EDT This bug might depend on bug #47037 =Comment: #2================================================= Jochen Roth <jroth.com> - 2008-08-06 07:29 EDT Full boot log =Comment: #3================================================= Jochen Roth <jroth.com> - 2008-08-06 07:33 EDT I just discovered that it works after waiting for about 5-10 minutes... =Comment: #5================================================= Jochen Roth <jroth.com> - 2008-08-06 08:16 EDT After removing the attached USB disk from the media tray the DVD drive got recognized faster. Now it takes about 10-20 seconds for the DVD drive to be recognized. Couldn't the installer wait until the usb scan has finished before starting the installation dialog?

No, we have no way of knowing when the kernel is done scanning USB devices.
