It's a machine that has successfully used the GUI install for all recent versions of Fedora before F11. It has an AMD Duron CPU, 512 MB RAM, 40 GB HDD. I myself did a successful GUI F11 install on a machine with a much slower CPU and half the RAM, so that's probably not it. We used the default option, but tried adding "xdriver=vesa" and "acpi=off" with no luck. The GUI in anaconda works fine right up to the point where the "creating filesystem on /dev/sda1" window starts and Xorg starts using ~95% of the CPU. We let it run for almost a day with no progress, so it's not just slow. It normally should complete in less than a minute. We are attempting a clean install using the entire drive, the simplest possible case. All choices on the previous pages are the defaults. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkpOEaoACgkQ0pavuo9EGO8nUACeJfuQCI88SR2/faTW3eJRunz/ t4YAnAw7PBtI8EudH605hro7CHuS6JlS =ifQE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
