FC2 T3 release date of 5-18??

[raxet]

Now that's progress.

I can't remember ever seeing in release notes for any RedHat release a
disclaimer re: five different models of a mobo that just happens to be the
hottest mobo on the market.

Well now I have. :(

The FC2 Release Notes say the following:

Installation-Related Issues

     *

       Attempts to install Fedora Core 2 on ASUSR motherboards in the 
P4P800 series may not proceed past the "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, 
booting the kernel." message, making installation impossible. No 
workaround is available at this time. For more information, monitor bug 
121819:

       https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=121819
