Hi, I was trying to install 7.0 beta 2 on a system that has a SATA attached DVD drive. The system starts to the point where it waits for the SCSI devices to initialize. After that it starts reading from the install media and constantly gets read timeouts == no installation possible. Does anybody else see this problem? Tyan K8W (S2825), 2xOpteron 250, 2GB RAM 3ware 9500S-4LP with 2 WD disks LSI-1030 (mpt) with tape drive onboard SATA Controller: SiI 3114 only optical drive is a SATA DVD-Burner The problem occurs with 7.0b2 i386 and amd64. 6.2 RELEASE installs without problems, so I guess it is a bug?! Uwe
