All,
I've just experienced one of the most unnerving situations. I've a
custom built machine that was running the following:
ECS GeForce 6100SM-M mother board
AMD 64 X2 5600+
4GB RAM DDR2 800
nVidia GT7300 PCIE 256MB video card
2 - SATA Hard drives; 1 - 320 GB WD and 1 - 500GB Seagate
550 watt Antec power supply
Fedora 9 x86_64 with all of the latest patches
For Xmas I upgraded the machine to:
Gigabyte MA790X-DS4 mother board
AMD Phenom Quad core 9550
8GB RAM DDR2 800
Retained the video card from above
2 - SATA Hard drives; 1 - 500 GB Seagate and 1 - 1TB Seagate
850 watt Antec power supply
I attempted to install, from the same DVD used above, Fedora 9 x86_64
with 4 failures at just about the same place while installing
packages. I used my i386 Fedora 9 DVD and all went well during the
install so attempted to do a upgrade to x86_64 without luck. I did a
test using my Fedora 8 x86_64 DVD and it installed perfectly. I then
attempted to do a upgrade to Fedora 9 without any luck (it appeared to
fail at about the same place). I then downloaded and burned another
copy of the Fedora 9 x86_64 DVD, checked it and attempted to do
another install and one again it failed at about the same place.
What could possibly be happening? I since reinstall Fedora 8, but
that has reached it's E-O-L. Should I just attempt to go to Fedora 10
x86_64?
Any help or advice would be great!
You know....if you tell people where "about the same place" is and the
errors you are getting someone may be able to help you. "What could
possibly be happening?" I don't know about anyone else....but I can't
guess based on what you've said.
