I guess I get to learn something new. :| During installation I received the following messages just before my system hanged. changing root device to fd0c panic: double fault synching disks... (then the cursor stares at me blankly for an extended period) I tried to reinstall with a fresh copy on a new disk per the handbook's instruction. I got the same error. I resolved all IRQ/IO conflicts prior to continuing with installation. Would someone please tell me what this means or point me to the correct resource? What is the fix?
