<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>"<FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>We are
communicating via a "hijacked" thread hat was started 'way <BR>back in March and
with a decidedly non-informational subject. If you <BR>don't have a
breakthrough, why don't you start a new thread with a <BR>subject that is likely
to interest more people."</FONT><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2> anyway I tried booting
the installation cd in default mode again this morning, problem still persists,
anyway I'm not experiencing any kernel panic like yesterday but the computer
reboots while the installation is doing a media check, not at a particular point
during the media check but any point. sometimes it reboot at 27%, sometimes at
12%, I tried the memtest86 and waited till it passed once, I couldn't find any
problem, What do you think the problem could be?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2> I have 2 hard drives in
my computer, one is for windows and one is empty where I'm planning to install
Fedora, the windows hard drive is set as primary master and the linux harddrive
is set as primary slave and my cdrom drive is set as secondary master, Is
this setup conflicting in anyway with the Installation? I have a new cdrom drive
so a possibility for it to fail is rare. I'm practically stumped at the moment.
I have no idea what to do. why is it rebooting?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>I hope I get some answers</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>thanks and regards</FONT></DIV>
