Can't install on Lenovo S10-3 (0647-FDS)

[man666]

Hello everyone, i'm new on this community.

I have problems installing Fedora 14 on my netbook, is a Lenovo S10-3, model 0647FDS (Atom N550, 2gb DDR3, etc). When the installation program starts, hangs at "Initalizing network drop monitor service".

I have searched but i didn't found answers. Anyone knows something?

[man666]

Anyone knows?

Oh god, even the live cd doesn't work.

Don't know. I see reports that F12, F13 ,Ubuntu and Mint work on the S10-3.
There is a way to watch to liveCD bootup messages; don't recall - maybe hit <esc>.. That would be very useful.

[man666]

Until now, only Ubuntu works on my netbook. But i dislike Ubuntu.

This is the screencap of the Fedora 14 dvd version:

And this one of the Live cd version:

In booth cases, if i press "Esc", nothing happens.

Maybe i need to wait Fedora 15

I just bought my S10-3 and faced exactly the same problem!

Here is the solution that works:
1) When you are booting Fedora from CD/DVD/USB choose the appropriate line at the GRUB screen with arrows. For LiveCD it is "Boot" and for Installation Media it is something like "Install or upgrade"
2) Press TAB buttion
3) You will be able to add kernel options
4) Write "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" at the end of the line without quotes.
5) Press Enter to boot with custom parameters.

I found that solution here: http://andrmart.livejournal.com/8708.html

I've successfully installed Fedora 14 64-bit to Lenovo S10-3 laptop.

First time you boot it is necessary to add above mentioned parameter to kernel at GRUB menu and then insert it to /boot/grub/grub.conf to become permanent.

Thanks for your help

Yesterday, i successfully installed Fedora 13, without problems. I'm still thinking "Fedora 14 is a beta".
For now, i will use Fedora 13, waiting to 15.
