HardDrive-120GB
RAM-1GB
Processor-AMD Turion 64 X2 Processor
Battery-Lilon
CD/DVD-8x Super Multi Drive Double Layer(8.5 GB) DVD Writer
Display-14.1"WXGA TFT With Bright View Screen TechnologyI am trying to install
Fedora 11 on my laptop.
My CD-ROM is defective
So I follwed this instruction
http://gofedora.com/how-to-install-fedora-without-cd-dvd/
The only thing I did different was
I did not mount /stuff on a different partition. Its on the same mount as "/'
I have 4 Partitions. I already have Fedora 9 installed on /dev/sda1.
Inside this partition in /stuff I have copied the files from Fedora 11 CD.
Now in the grub when I choose fedora 11 installation. The installation halts at
a particular step.
Please find the preceding messages and the message at which it halts.
sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk
sd 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0
ata4: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300)
atkbd.c Unknown key pressed ( translated set 2, code 0x29 on isa 0060/serio0)
atkbd.c Use 'setkekycodes e059 <keycode>' to make it known.
atkbd.c Unknown kkeky released( translated set 2, code 0x29 on isa 0060/serio0)
atkbd.c Use 'setkekycodes e059 <keycode>' to make it known.
I tried to look it up on the internet. Most of the forums say that the issue
happens in presence of wireless keyboard or mouse.
I don't have a wireless mouse or keyboard. And none of them are in reference to
installing. The solution provided is to make changes to init files. But I don't
know how I can edit init files even before i have installed the system.
Hope I have clearly put out the problem this time :)
Anywork around for this ?
Can you tell which files I need to edit ?
And what changes needs to be done ?
Regards
Amit
