[solved] Just installed F16, then got DISK BOOT FAILURE

When installing F16 from the DVD, with the install disk in the DVD drive, I get errors like this:

usbhid [version number] couldn't find interrupt endpoint
ata1 .... device not ready
ata1 .... device not ready

It proceeds despite the error and then during the install I get "no usable disks found".

The hard disk I am trying to install F16 on is formatted as ext4 and plugged into the SATA0 socket on my MB. SATA1 is connected to my DVD drive.

I just formatted the disk an hour ago using a F13 system so the disk itself should be OK.

By the say, ata1 maybe should say sata1, the message could be getting chopped of on left side of my monitor.

Can someone please tell me what usbhid is?

The "usbhid" error went away after I removed a KVM (Keyboard Video Mouse) switch, but I still cannot install F16.

To be more precise, the error is "ata1 softreset failed (device not ready)".

It repeats that message 3-4 times then says "giving up" and runs anaconda which says "no usable disks found" and forces me to go back (which is useless) or exit the installer. After exiting it says "Starting graphical installation" and then hangs.
