Post subject: | Installer Locking up when running udev |
Hi, I'm trying to install KnoppMyth R5F1 on a new(er) PC that I have here but it fails every time at udev hot-plug hardware detection. The PC is a HP Pavilion with: Pentium 4 2.93 1GB DDR RAM 80GB SATA HDD Onboard everything 64MB Geforce4 MX440 PCI USB Logitech Keyboard and Mouse Microsoft MCEUSB remote DVD-RW Drive Aus Motherboard with a Intel 915 chipset with a RTL1001L Audio and RTL8139 Network chips. When I remove the graphics card from the PCI slot and use the onboard it works fine but I'd prefer to use the Nvidia card to get TV out. Any idea? Thanks, Peter Young. |

Install without the Nvidia card, then blacklist the intel AGP driver Code: echo "intel_agp" >> /etc/hotplug/blacklist
Then install the Nvidia card. I had the the same problem on a Dell machine with integrated video. http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=13338& |

Did you try the intelfix option on boot? |

I had the the same problem on a Dell machine with integrated video. http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=13338& If TJC's fix works for you go for it, much simpler. Didn't work for my mobo. I happened to be trying KM tester version on the PC above mentioned today and apparently the process for blacklisting the intel_agp driver changed (probably a udev thing). This is what I had to do to get working. Install without Nvidia card, after remove CD reboot, at enter password screen. ALT+CTRL+F2 to get to a console Code: pico /etc/modules Comment out line Code: #intel_apg Code: pico /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist Add a line Code: blacklist intel_agp Code: halt -p
Install Nvidia card and boot. Again this is a tester version, not R5F1 so YMMV. |
