FC4 with Kernel 2.6.15.1 running no problem. Wanted to upgrade to FC5 but kernel won't load (Doesn't get to Anaconda stage) Keep getting IRQ Failure problem and Lost Interrupt on my hdc (cd rom) error then system hangs. For some reason keeps trying to assign IRQ 12 to my ide1 controller when it should be IRQ 13 or 15. This does not happen with 2.6.15 kernel.
Now I have upgraded my kernel in FC4 to latest 2.6.16.1 kernel and I now get the same kernel load failure when I reboot into FC4 using this kernel. Luckily, I can still boot into FC4 with the 2.6.15.1 kernel so I am not completely locked out!!
The FC5 boot disk works with one of my older computers (also with an Athlon CPU) Why would it not work with my one year old machine? Anyone else having these load problems?? I really want to upgrade to FC5 but I don't wish to buy a new computer to do so!!!
