I am trying to install 5.2 on a new dv7z hp laptop.
I use "linux noapic nolapic iommu=off " and I get a kernel dump on rtl8169.
I dont need the network to install? how do I ignore the rtl8169 to install.

I tried noprobe and then it doesnt recognize my SATA HD controller and I 
dont
know yet which driver to select as I cant do an lspci to see???

THanks,

Jerry
