So I suspect it's a harware specific problem. If it might be video related, you can hit tab at the first window to get the boot menu and then try using the basic video boot option. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

There was also a recent thread about a problem related to VT-d on a different Dell model which mentioned that disabling iommu at boot made things better. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

That physical CD does boot nicely on a Dell dimension 8400. On the 2350, we just get the small dash in the upper left corner of the screen. It never shows the ISOLINUX line, and so never shows the grub menu, and eventually boots from the hard drive. Neither escape nor tab do anything while sitting with the small dash at the top left corner. Ah, bizarre. That physical cd will boot on the 2350 from the second (cd only) drive, but not from the first (dvd) drive. Other cd's (vyatta 6.0, 6.1, an old ubuntu 7) will boot from the dvd drive on that machine. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFMk+CSL6j7milTFsERAmkcAJ4pIYhdhqNWlxBf4chvSglQuioIEwCeOpkM aXX+b39FRIYg+uH9IvIa0Vw= =9nPO -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
