Fedora 8 on Fit-PC2

Post by dbucci »

Hi all,

I'm trying to install fedora 8 on a fit-pc2 but the setup doesn't find my disk. I read many threads regarding similar problems but they don't solve my issue. Who suggests "modprobe pata-sch", I've tried without success.
Can someone suggest me a solution?
Thank you very much, Davide

Fedora 8 based on 2.6.24 kernel which does not have pata_sch module yet. Try more recent version of Fedora.

Thank you for your reply.
In my installation is important that version of fedora remain the same 'cause I've a driver of a particular usb device that works fine on this fedora (8) and not in newer. I'm trying to replace the pc of my actual installation with a new one (with less consumption, fitpc2) and I would keep the actual software installation.

The older pc is really stable so I prefer to keep this version of fedora.

Do you think there's a way to compile this module for this kernel version and load manually during the setup step, and then fixing in the grub boot menu?

Thank you, Davide
