Thanks, Mike.
I have tried both "linux noapic" and "linux apic" with no luck... :)

Try passing "linux noapic" to the boot prompt.

Folks,
At the risk of asking a question you're all sick of hearing (though I have
searched the fedora-list archives)...
During the install process my SMP system hangs when loading the aic7xxx
driver -- after several hours it does move on, but just doesn't see drives.
This reminded me of the problem with RHL 7.x and 8.0, where you had to get a
separate boot floppy image and boot with "linux noapic" or "linux apic" (I'm
forgetting which)...
Is a similar solution available for Fedora Core 1, or is there something
else I can do?
Thanks!
S.
