I have the same machine - the way I got around this was to change the disk mode in the BIOS from IDE to RAID - this prevents the pre-existing MS OS booting in dual boot mode - but then I was not interested in using Windows once F8 was running. Would be interested to know if others had a better way to get working with this specific machine. -- fedora-list mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
