hello!
Today I want to install the FCcT2 boot from hard disk.
After I chose the method of "hard disk",it popup "select driver",
however,in the drivers supplied I can't find the proper driver.
could somebody tell me how to continue?
thanks!

this is a known issue. the current workaround is to boot to the test 1 cd and then switch to the test 2 cd after the initial boot is done.

No, that is incorrect. That's a trick used to just boot FC2T2. If you are having problems with Fedora not detecting your hard drives, well then you are probably screwed because I haven't heard of a fix for this. If you switch your CDs after kernel initialization, Fedora will brag about incompatible media.
Actually there might be a solution. Will be back shortly.

As logical as it may seem to post an installation problem in the Installation forum, all questions pertaining to a test[1|2|3] release belong in the Test Releases forum. Thanks. Moved.

Guess what? Today I found a solution to this problem!
When that screen poped, I just plug a USB device, and to my surprise(I think to yours , too), the list of hard disks in my drive appears. And so I installed FC2T2 successfully.

That's a perfect solution if you are the happy owner of a USB device.
Does anyone has a solution in you are not a happy owner?
Will this issue be solved in the upcoming test3 release?
