<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am having much difficulty installing FC2 on a
Compaq Proliant DL360 G2.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>First of all I tried using the GUI install this
just froze before completing installing the RPMs, I tried doing on install using
text, and the install stopped at about the same place - however, this time the
screen was covered in a load of characters!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>After I tried all combinations of using ide=nodma
and noacpi, and when using both together, the install managed to get through to
the post-RPM bit where configuration is done - I then just had an egg timer for
a long long time.... so it seems to have hung later in the
process.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm not really sure what to try next!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Does anyone have any suggestions?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks,</FONT></DIV>
