what is the actual problem ? at what stage and how does the install fail ?

w.r.t the display, once installed run : system-config-display --reconfig
--noui

that should give you a usable setup, that you can then install the ati
drivers onto ( get them from the ati website )

hey,

When the Centos 4.0 starts it installing after few minutes errors will start coming up

hdc: IRQ Probe failed (Oxfcfa)
hdd: IRQ Probe failed (Oxfcfa)
hdc: lost interrupt.

There is no problem with the cds as on the other machines I am able to install those cds but on this particular machine things are failing.

I am reconfigure or system-config-display but I am should be able to reach that stage where I can issue this command If I am not able to install the OS how can I issue this command.

I tried Suse 10.0 it got installed but when the KDE comes it shows an error "Frequency out of range". Suse 10.0 works fine If I boot into the init level 3 but not in init level 5.

But Centos and FC4 are not reaching that stage that I can boot to init level 3 they are failing within few minutes of installation process.

Thanks & Regards
