Unable to install Fedora core 13 on Dell Vostro 3500 with i5
 

Hi,
I have been trying to install Fedora-Core 13 (live cd version) on Dell
Vostro 3500 laptop (with core i5 processor) without any luck. The laptop
boots from the live cd and then simply gets stuck. I initially thought
that there was some problem with the cd or the image, so have now wasted
around 5 cd's on various versions (the 32-bit as well as 64-bits, both
kde and gnome versions). The same problem occurs with the USB boot.

From what i can see there is some problem while attempting to boot up.
After removing the 'quiet' option from boot, what i can see is something
as follows


..

...
... [end trace...]
udevd-work[7941]: ' /sbin/modprobe -b pci:v0000d123.......' unexpected
exit with status 0x0009

[ok]
setting hostname localhost.localdomain [ok]



and before
usb_id[10371] unable to access
'/devices/pci0000.00/0000:00:1a............../input/input10/event10'


.............................

I know its not a complete report, but can any one tell if they have
tried installing fedora of this laptop? or How may i manage to install it?


Thankyou very much for your assistance.

regards
khan

It's not solving the problem with the Live CD installer, but if you
absolutely need to get it installed on your laptop, have you attempted a
netinstall?

64-bit:
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/13/Fedora/x86_64/iso/Fedora-13-x86_64-netinst.iso

32-bit:

I've had problems with the BIOS virtualisation settings when installing F13
on my Dell Latitude E5400 - anaconda crashed several times with virt on.

Thankyou everyone for the quick responses. I tried the noapic
acpi=off

*option and it worked like a charm.* Finally managed to boot from
the live cd and am currently installing fedora 13 to hard disk.

Thank you again* for your assistance.
