Hi All,

MSI RS-IL 480
Seagate HDD 160 GB

It is partitioned 140 Gb(Win XP) / 20 B

now my problem is that whenever i try to install the Fedora by
inserting the disk , after a couple of steps ..it says that HDD not found !!

First provide 10 g.b. unpartioned and try it.If the problem continues reply....

which version of fedora are U using..get latest one if possible.have the installer detects your harddisk..if it detects try manual partition..

You have a SATA hard disk, dont you?
You need to boot the CD using 2.6 kernel and perform the installation, it will install smooth.
