It's NOT possible install then use F9 and F8+update.
This is a HP common server, since there is the problem for over a month, means that no one is using Fedora 8 + update or Fedora 9 on this kind of server.
If someone was able to run Fedora 8 + Updates or Fedora 9 on these servers, please let me know how to do.
The problem witch I have fount is this:

I am seeing the same problem but on a Toshiba Satellite A305-S6825 laptop instead an HP system. The problem may not be Fedora specific since I having what appears to be the same problem when I tried to install Ubuntu 8.0.4 on my new laptop.
I am configuring my laptop as a dual boot system with Vista Ultimate (installed first) and Fedora 9.

Hi,
Has anyone successfully installed Linux on a Satellite A305-S6825 laptop? I have tried both Fedora 9 and Ubuntu 8.0.4 unsuccessfully. What does it take to install Linux, Fedora 9 specifically on the Toshiba Satellite A305-S6825 laptop? Am I missing a driver or is there another problem?
Any suggestions, feedback or comments are welcome.
BTW. This is my second attempt at this message. I apologize if both of them show up.
==================
I am attempting to configure my laptop for dual boot between Vista and Fedora. Vista has been reduced to a 40 GB partition on the 250 GB HDD with the rest of the space partitioned into a set of Ext3 and [one] swap partitions (/boot, swap, /, /usr, /usr/local, /tmp, /var and /opt). I can see the Ext3 partitions from Vista as Ext2 file systems with a third party driver.
In the case of Fedora 9, the install DVD runs as follows:
- starts loading, writing startup (dmesg) text to monitor. - displays a stack trace (only part of trace is visible on the screen) - displays another 3/4 screen of text - hangs for a few minutes - Displays curses GUI asking to select Language (I selected English) - Displays curses GUI asking to select Keyboard Type (again, I select English) - Displays curses GUI asking for Installation Method (See selection below. I selected local CD/DVD). -- Local CD/DVD -- Hard Drive -- NFS Directory -- URL
- Displays curses GUI stating No Driver Found. - Selecting the Select Driver button moves to a list of drivers, mostly, NIC drivers. - Selecting any driver causes the system to hang until rebooted.
=========================
I have also attempted to boot the laptop from Live CDs for both Ubuntu and Fedora. Both Live CDs had trouble loading. The Ubuntu was only able to boot to a command line while Fedora managed to get the Gnome GUI up and running. In both cases, dmesg showed that there was a NULL kernel pointer encountered and a call to /sbin/modprobe crashed with the dump of the crash displayed in dmesg text.
The Fedora 9 Live is able to see the swap partition that I pre-configured so I am assuming that Fedora can access my HDD and I was able to copy the dmesg text to a USB flash drive and a USB HDD.
During the login to Fedora 9 Live, there is a pop-up that states that there was a Kernel failure but does not states any details.
