Fedora Core 3 Instalation Fails
Hi:
I´m new in Linux and I´m trying to install Fedora Core 3 in my computer as a second OS. When running Anaconda I get several dialog boxes with title "Bug" and saying: "Assertion (heads < 256) at disk_dos.c:486 in function probe_partition_for_geom() failed" "Assertion ((C*heads + H) *sectors + S==A) at disk_dos.c:495 in function probe_partition_for_geom() failed" "Assertion (heads < =63) at disk_dos.c:490 in function probe_partition_for_geom() failed" After this, the insatalation exits. Can someone give some help on this? I´m using an AMD k6-2 450 MHz with windows Me. I have 2 HDD, one (master) with 120 GB and the other ( slave) with 8.5 GB. 320 MB of RAM. I have two partitons on the 120 GB HDD, the boot one and the other empty. I want to install Linux on this partition. Thanks. Joao |
