Hi, I just tried to install a CentOS 5 desktop on very recent hardware, an Acer desktop machine. The installer stopped short very early. I gave Ubuntu 8.04 a shot, and it installed without a problem. Now what can I do about this? Is there a way to use some "enhanced" kernel (like the centos.plus kernel) to perform the install? I guess what's missing there is a specific driver for something (SATA drive? Processor?). Any suggestions? Niki
