It is asking for Optins for
1.linux medchk
2.linux rescue
3.linux noprobe
and so on
next screen appears blue and at top left there text appaers that Welcome to Fedora
Then It ask for media check
If I ask for media check thenlk some unknown language finds to me.
If I skips it then also same is going on.


I have used those CDs to install in other systems.

install Fedora in text mode. you could configure Display settings later on.
try these options at boot: prompt

linux ide=nodma
linux acpi=off
linux acpi=off apm=off
linux nofb

I had a similar problem installing Fedora Core 5 on my Desktop with XP Dual boot

Intel Pentium D 2.8 GHZ
D101GGC Intel Desktop Board
1GB RAM
ATI Radeon 200 Xpress Series
160 GB SATA Drive

None of the below work:

linux text - 2 horizontal lines of garbage displayed in the centre of the monitor

linux ide=nodma - A white grainy screen without any display
linux acpi=off - 2 horizontal lines of garbage displayed in the centre of the monitor
linux acpi=off apm=off - 2 horizontal lines of garbage displayed in the centre of the monitor
linux nofb - 2 horizontal lines of garbage displayed in the centre of the monitor

After a lot of struggle, was able to install with the following option:

linux text ide=nodma nofb resolution=lowres

Once installed, in the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf change

Driver "radeon" to Driver "vesa" for Identifier "ATI Radeon 9600"

Thought this would help people struggling with similar issues

Hi …

What are the fully supported Linux versions (especially Fedora / Redhat versions) for Intel D101GGC Desktop Board?

Please reply me.

latest version of Fedora and RHEL are fully compatible with it. you might face Display problems and its easy to fix that.
