Hi All,

Trying to install FC5T2 on my 17" PB Late 2005 model & it won't even try to boot. I hold down C when it restarts & the disc spins up and you can hear it being scanned & accessed but it doesn't boot. After approx 40secs it then gives up and boots Mac OSX.

I had Kubuntu 6.04 on here and it worked fine, so I booted the live version of Kubuntu, removed all the linux partitions and tried again - still no go.

Anyone know if this is an issue with FC5T2 ?

Cheers,
Ben

That worked. Thanks for the info - I couldn't see any mention that the DVD image wasn't bootable on the Fedora site.... Anyway, thanks.

Cheers,
