CommentHi, I decided to try the I2O support in FC3T2, since I currently run FC1 on that machine and trying to upgrade to FC2 fails on that server (can't detect disks from installation), and as I've just found out, so does FC3T2. I've read the material on: http://i2o.shadowconnect.com/fedora.php and they claim that they do not know of any issues with the driver and kernel used on the installation process of FC3T2. The following is my problem. I have an Adaptec I2O SCSI RAID Controller BIOS V001.62 (2002/11/16) Model 2010S Revision 3B05 32Mb of RAM Booting the FC3T2 CD, I select to add additional drivers and select the "I2O block" driver from the list. Then when going through the install the following appears before going to the "checking fedora installation" section: Bug Assertion (sectors <= 63) at disk_dos.c:476 in function probe_partition_for_geom() failed click Ignore Bug Assertion (heads > 0) at disk_dos.c:471 in function probe_partition_for_geom() failed click Ignore then the install shuts down for reboot.
