You are trying to install on a machine which isn't supported by this release of Fedora Core

[Jurgen Lamsens]

Hi,

 

I encountered the same error somebody posted on the Bugzilla forum:

 

"You are trying to install on a machine which isn't supported by this
release of Fedora Core."
 
I installed Fedora Core 1 from CD's that were included in the book 'Red Hat
Linux and Fedora Unleashed' from
The authors Bill Ball and Hoyt Duff.
 
Some guy Matt responded to this posting with:
 
Hi Chris!
 
It seems you are not the first to have this problem:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2004-January/msg06460.html
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2004-January/msg06177.html
 
The second link suggests it may be that the kernel package is not being
included in the package list. See this Bugzilla report for an anaconda
code snippet that shows what triggers this error message:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=106590
 
BTW, Are you the same Chris Negus of "Red Hat Linux Bible" series fame?
If so, I own your book; it's great! :-)
 
Regards,
-Matt
 

I just selected the 'install server' option, and after the partitioning I
also have to wait for about 10 - 15 minutes before the message pops up, just
the same

situation like the one above.

 

The Bugzilla report mentions the fact that a package named kernel has to be
included in the RPMS list. Does that mean that my Fedora Core 1 CD's are

bad ? I installed them perfectly on a regular Compaq PC.

 

Thanks in advance,

Greets,

Jurgen L.
