Hi folks, I'm trying to do a fresh install on a quite old Dell Laptop Inspiron 8000. No matter what boot option I choose, the startup stops.
If I choose option #5 verbose logging, I'm able to see a message reading: fdc0: output ready timeout There isn't even a floppy installed in the modular bay. I have a fix installed CD/RW drive and a modular DVD drive from which I boot the installation DVD. I tried to boot from a CD as well, but the effect is the same, so it looks like there is some problem in hardware probing. Any suggestions ?
