I am trying to upgrade to Fedora 13 from a Fedora 11 system. I made a DVD and when I do the upgrade it displays the message "Probing EDD (edd=off to disable)... ok) and then it hangs. The upgrade stops with the message and makes no ferther progress. I did a online upgrade and when it rebooted with the upgrade the upgrade hung the same way.

What kind of video card do you have?
lspci in f11 should show you.
Have you tried passing 'edid=off' to the boot line of the installer?
Does your video card have DVI and VGA? If so, can you switch it to the other one?
Finally, try booting with 'xdriver=vesa' and see if that gets any further.
Good luck!

HI...
It is a VGA card. NVIDIA NV5[RIVA TNT2/TNT2 Pro Rev 15
I booted with the switches you provided and neither works.
I have to force reset the PC to get out of the hang.

What kernel are you booting with (on the dvd)
I am just selecting "Install New System or Upgrade....." from the Options list that the DVD App gives me. There do seem to be any alterative Kernels on the DVD. I made the DVD yesterday from the Fedora site.
