[CentOS] Installation on a Macbook Pro with nVidia MCP89 SATA controller
Did anybody succeed in installing CentOS on a MacBook Pro with nVidia chipset (2010 edition, http://www.heise.de/mac-and-i/produkte/macbook-13-2-4-ghz-mitte-2010-86/#produkt_detail)? When I boot with the current minimal install disk, Linux does simply see non disks.

The entry in the kernel bugzilla should be (does not open, for me): https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15923 In the Fedora Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6080340 I guess, it all comes down to Red Hat including this patch or not.

Just downloaded 6.2 Live DVD and will have a serious go at it after New Years. Short handed at the moment. Thanks for the suggestion and thanks to the entire team for a great job. As one of the mostly silent majority, we do appreciate what you guys contribute to us. Happy New Year. B.J.
