I installed FC2 on my Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop. It installed fine with no
errors. When it was finished it asked to reboot. So I did. It then asked about
forcing a file system and the first time I said no and the machine locked at
swap file. The second time I forced the file system and it passed the swap file
error and gave this message modprobe: Fatal Error: Error inserting floppy
c/lib/modules/2.6.5-1.358/kernel/drivers/block/floppy.ko:No such device<br>
<br>
Could somebody help please I am lost here? My floppy is modular on my laptop
and I put it in the bay and it still gave me the error. My floppy can also be
connected through a usb externally.<br>
<br>
I also tried installing FC3 and it did not give me the floppy error but instead
it got to the part where it checked eth0 and then it hung there. <br>
<br>
Quick overview of my laptop is a Pentium M 1.8ghz, 2 gigs of Ram, 60 gig hd,
broadcom nic, broadcom 56k, nvidia geforce fx go5200 64 meg video,
cdrw/dvd/combo max screen resolution 1920x1200 with a vertical syncronization
of 60 hz and horizontal syncronization of 31.5-90khz. I hope that covers
everything. <br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
