Fc2 hangs up when I try to install

[john brennan-sardou]

Hello, everybody,
		I hope that you can help me. I am trying to run fedora core 2 but when
I start the installation it just hangs up. It stops dead just after
Anaconda starts with :

trying to remount root filesystem read/write ....done
mounting /tmp as ramfs..........done
Running install
running /sbin/loader.

and then no joy at all.........


  I waited over half an hour yesterday to give it all the chances it
needed but to no avail. What should I do? Does this mean that core 2
will not work on this machine? It didn't seem to have any troubles when
it came to installing core 1.
		Tnanks for any help that you can offer.

here is what is on my box : could be the hardware!!!


I have just tried Fc2 on another box and it seems to be ok therefore
this seems to justify the idea that there is a clear hardware problem.
Any ideas?
