Full Version: installation hangs after the disk check

Hello

I have a problem that the installation hangs at the point
after the disk check.
All I get is the feeling that fedora is working on loading the graphical applet,
but it doesn’t – for hours. . .

Did you burn from an iso? CD or DVD?

I downloaded the DVD iso no probs @ all?

I also skipped the media check ( sorry I couldn't be bothered waiting tongue.gif )

I am guessing that the media check does actually complete?

Maybe try skipping the check > just a thought from this n00b rolleyes.gif

sorry n00b, already try all the basic tries. . .
my problem is bigger than the basic troubleshooting.
Nice of you trying, though. wink.gif


Anyone else?

yes I did try text mode. No luck, same results.
I have posted it at bugzilla as well,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com Bug number 125144
I have checked the disks they are all okay, and the F buttons don't react,
Alt+1, Alt+2, spacebar - nothing.
When I press Ctrl+C it doesn’t break
and Alt+Ctrl+Del do the reboot okay.
It simply wont budge.
