Re: installing fedora on HEWLETT PACKARD pavilion 500
studying this my problem (which is connected to the use of the UEFI on HP computers in place of the traditional BIOS) I found this link: http://www.rodsbooks.com/efi-bootloaders/index.html There is wrote : "The way EFI computers boot is very different from the way older computers based on the Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) boot." *But I didn't yet realized very well what really is this difference *. Of course I had to disable the "secure boot" (in order to use the CD with The Fedora installation).. But, still, I am confused about the boot loader to use (how the Web page says )... Perhaps my problem come because I am using the default boot loader (Grub2) that come with the installation of Fedora and, instead, I should change it with another more appropriate boot-loader ???

This is the 3rd such report in just a couple months, including myself. In my case it was intermittent though and Dell support concluded either logic board or SSD flakiness; and also mine was a dual boot scenario and sometimes happened even with Windows only installed on the system (and all Fedora NVRAM entries cleared). The fact that your on-board diagnostic doesn't see a drive suggests a hardware problem.

installing fedora on HEWLETT PACKARD pavilion 500
I already had some problem to install fedora on HP pavilion 500, but at last I was able to finish the installation. I got the message: "installation complete" and so I did the shutdown. The computer closed regular, (the system is going down for power out at ...) but when I try to open it again, I find this message on the screen: - boot device not found please install an operating system on your hard disk Hard DISK - (3F0) F2 - System Diagnostics for more information visit the site http://h18021.www1.hp.com/helpandsupport/hp-self-support.html The site don't explain nothing about a problem connected with linux and after running diagnostic I get the message : ERROR: no boot disk has been detected For what I can understand the HP computer use UEFI (a standard firmware interface for PCs); and this give problems to use CD live.., but I don't know other that can give problem like the boot loader... I would like to know how to solve this problem thank you Angelo -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
