Q: My computer reboots when I try to install Fedora Core 2! (Updated 17 July 2004)
A: You either have an ASUS P4P800 motherboard, or a VIA C3 processor. Here's how to fix it:
1. Download a fixed CD-ROM image, either for the VIA C3 or for the ASUS P4P800.
2. Burn the image to a blank CD. In a Terminal, you can do this with:
cdrecord -dev=/dev/cdrom -data name.iso
Where "name.iso" is the name of the file you downloaded in the above step. (Also, your CD burner could be cdrom1 if you have two CD drives.)
3. Boot from the CD you just burned, and install Fedora Core 2. When asked for the installation location, specify "Local CDROM", and insert your original (not fixed) CD #1.
4. This will install a Fedora Core 2 with the same problem, so we have to fix that. Boot from the CD you burned, again, but instead of installing, do:
linux rescue
5. Choose "Local CDROM" as the location of the rescue image, and then insert your original (not fixed) CD #1.
6. When you are asked, say "yes" to Networking, and "yes" to mounting your system image. Hit "OK" or "Next" for everything else, unless you need to choose something specific that you know about.
7. When you get a prompt, do:
chroot /mnt/sysimage/
8. Open up a web site for Fedora Updates:
links http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/updates/2/i386/
9. Use the arrow keys to scroll down to the latest kernel for your CPU:
* For the VIA C3, this will look like: kernel-2.6.6-1.[version].i586.rpm.
* For the ASUS P4P800, this will look like: kernel-2.6.6-1.[version].i686.rpm.
If there are multiple versions, pick the one with the highest [version] number.
10. Press the Enter key to download the file, and choose "Save" when asked. (Make sure you select the text "kernel-..." and not the box on the left.)
11. Press q to quit the web browser.
12. Install the new kernel:
rpm -Uvh kernel-2.6*
13. Delete the file you downloaded:
rm -f kernel-2.6*
14. Remove the original Fedora kernel:
rpm -e kernel-2.6.5-1.358
15. Reboot your machine, remove the CD, and your Fedora Core 2 will work!
reboot
