Three times today on different hardware (changing hard drives and
architecture), I have attempted to install FC4 Test 3 onto a single
partition reiserfs system, hda1 (10GB) = reiserfs, hda2 (1024MB) = swap.
To launch the install, I used "linux selinux=0 reiserfs".
The install proceeds normally, but during the initial reboot, the system
halts when uncompressing the kernel and reports:
-----
<snip boot loader messages>
Uncompressing Linux...
ran out of input data
-- System halted
-----
I might expect a bad hard drive, but, as I mentioned, this happens on
two different drives, in two different systems.
Does anyone know what's happening?
Apologies if this is answered somewhere already.
Thanks,
Richard
