http://forums.fedoraforum.org – Hi, I tried to install Fedora17 x64 on my Desktop with the LiveCD but it freezes at the menu where u can choose to either start the Live env or the installation. Now I downloaded the netinstall CD and the Installation DVD. These to boot to the point where u have a grey-ish7white screen with the fedora logo in the upper left and the 2 greyed out buttons in the lower right and nothing happens. Any ideas what goes wrong ? The Box: Intel i7, 8G DDR3 RAM, nVidia 580GTX, Intel SSD and several legacy HDDs. Machine is currently running Arch. (HowTos)

Hello guys, today I got a sad problem: When I run fedora (liveCD), it works properly but then I install it (the installation process seems to be ok) and by the moment I choose fedora in grub, what I got is just a white-blinking screen that never ends.

So I tried to install many others DEs and distros: Fedora(KDE), Fedora(LXDE), Mint(Cinnamon), Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Mageia, OpenSuse and the same pro

Hi there. I downloaded Ubuntu Studio 12.04 and burned it to a DVD.

I want to install it on my Futjitsu AH532 Laptop, but nor the Installation starts or the try it on liveCD are working. It hangs at the logo screen, with the circle running (30 minutes later, still on that screen).

The laptop is 3 months old, I don't think it's comming form it's material.

What should I try ?

I'm trying to install F17 on my laptop (Toshiba A-665 ... 4gigs RAM, nividia gforce GTS350M,core-i7 1.7 GHz processor), but the liveCD boot freezes about 3/4 of the way through the loading icon... EVERY TIME. I've checked the image, the LiveCD (using Fedora 17s own media checker) and re-downloaded / rewritten the ISO about a thousand times now. Conclusion: the ISO is fine, the media is fine.
