i want to install Fedora 7 from Digit DVD but during installation it is asking for drivers to install and not recognising hard disk drive. My PC Config is Intel C2D 6420, MSI P965-Neo V2, Hitachi 250 GB SATA II, Seagate 20 GB PATA with LiteOn DVD Writer. How can i resolve this problem ?

Search Google for appropriate drivers or goto Manufacturers Site and download the drivers. Then when it prompts for drivers, use the disks. I dunno how to install those drivers while installation. Wait for some others. :) :)

I refer to a full stable release. I normally do not use beta versions of OSes. So i mean a "stable version" by release. :)
