question

I installed Red Hat Fedora Core 4 (FC4) operating system on a Dell Dimension XPSR450, but when it is booted it hangs on the line "Starting udev: Initializing hardware... storage network". I only have the following devices installed: a video card (STB nvidia TNT ver 1.10), a newer CPU, CD reader/writer, floppy drive, and a new Maxtor hard drive. (Conflicts with a network card, USB card, and sound card are not possible because these were removed before booting.) Do you think this old Nvidia video card is conflicting with Udev?

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not, the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan, 'Press on,' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race. --Calvin Coolidge

As this is a FC4 issue, I suggest asking on one of their mailing lists first. If the issue is narrowed down to the core udev program, then we will be glad to help you out here.

Good luck,
