Fedora Core 5 on Sony Laptop
Hi all
I am a first timer here. I have a problem getting my Fedora core 5 to boot on my SONY VAIO FE28 laptop. It installs all the way without any problems and then when I reboot it shows the following messages before freezing and turning my screen red or green: PCI : Failed to allocate mem resource #6: 20000@c 0000 INIT version 2.85 booting Set time: ----OK Starting Udev: _ (this is where it freezes, and the screen background turns red or green). I noticed that it identifies my laptop screen as "Unknown" when starting the initial DVD boot. Can anyone help. Best Regards Last edited by asoliman; 09-12-2006 at 12:53 PM. |

Try booting with noacpi or noapic kernel options.

Is that during normal boot or during initial boot using the installation DVD? I am not sure how to specify kernel options during normal hard disk boot.
