I have been using Red Hat (.0 for the last couple of years and Linux
7.2 before that). I built a new box (Prescott 3.0 , Asus
P4P800deluxe
Mobo,
512 mb Crucial PC3200 DDR Dual Channel RAM, ATI Radeon 9700
graphics, WD
120
IDE HD (7200, *mb Buff, Non-SATA), Pioneer 107.? DVD-RW, Sound
Blaster
Audigy NX Platinum. I installed Fedora Core on an old drive (20 GB)
and
had
the system up and going fairly quickly. I was not impressed though
with
Fedora Core. I found that It didn't contain many of the server
related
software that I Rely up in RH9 (no need to go into detail but FC
seems
much
to skimpy. I need to use the Machine for a MAIL, DNS, WEB, FTP,
Samba,
Server for a small user group, as well as my home /Office
workstation. I
have had my Old Box configured and doing all of the required tasks
to my
liking with RH 9 and 7.2 previously. (The machine was only a P933
with
512
mb PC133SDRAM and was getting low on drive space and became rather
sluggish
for what I have been used to with my Linux Boxes. I decided to
Upgrade.
After Building and installing FC I was not satisfied and decided to
return
to RH 9. Here's were the problems have begun. When I formatted and
installed
the 120G WD drive. I inserted the First ISO discs to install RH9 and
precede
to install . After the Primary Start Up /Installation screen the
system
probes for the hardware that is on the system prior to installation.
When It
gets to HD/ IDE specifications and their IRQ settings it freezes up
after
showing HDA 1 = Primary IDE DMA 5, PIO 3 IRQ 11
Secondary IDE = DVD RW PIO 3 IRQ11
Interrupt 11...................................
I have tried rearranging the hardware in bios and
physically. I get
the same result . even starting into rescue mode and using the
noprobe
command. I have tried reinstalling FC and Mandrake 10.1. Same
result. I
have
never run into this problem before. Does anyone else have experience
with
this Mobo. It is listed as being compatible with RH9 (and the rest
). Do
I
need to go down the SATA route and buy anew drive or is there any
other
suggestions you could offer. I have been struggling with this for
some
time
now. I've never had a problem that I haven't been able to resolve in
short
order, even as a newbie.
ANY guidance would be very much appreciated.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.
