  1. I wanted to try installing Fedora 3 on my laptop, so I downloaded the DVD. I have a compaq armada m300 with 196 mb ram and p3 600 cpu. Not a hell of a powerfull pc, but i wanted to try even so. It boots fine from the dvd, and i get the usual hit enter to start the graphical installer, or write linux text to install using text mode.. first i try just to hit enter... then this happens It probes for hardware, then the whole screen turns white, gradually... taking lets say 5 sec.. when it had become white, it gradually turns black.. and the pc seems to hang. First i thought it might be X that had some buggy drivers loading during the installer load. but the same thing happens when I try linux text as well. any idea what causes this? regards NH

    I got it working now. Used linux nofb, and it worked like a dream.

    Yes, it works fine. The same thing happened with Fedora 2 when I tried that when it was released. So I gave it up
