My email server is running CentOS 3 and I can't upgrade it to CentOS 4 using the CD's. At first I thought it was the old Megaraid card (that's no longer supported), so I replaced that with a new card. I've tried ISO's from CentOS 4, 4.1 and now 4.2 which I've tested and booted in other machines. Just not this one.
If, you are running an older machine.... if it has no usb... try at the install command prompt
linux nousb nousbstorage apm=off noapic
apm is advanced power management.. many early versions were buggy (and I'm not sure today's are really much better) if you have usb.. leave the two usb statements out
Seems that agpart is causing some problems.. maybe there is a way to turn that off during an install but I don't offhand know the command.
I fixed my problem by booting with "linux agp=off". That's how I got the kernel to ignore AGP and start up. I still haven't gone through the full install, that's a project for this weekend. I imagine that I'll have to add the agp=off string to the grub bootloader line.
Thanks for everyone's advice.
