SOLVED: Installation issues

[jtello87]

Hi guys,
unfortunately I have been unable to install Amahi since yesterday, I keep getting and error when I boot from the cd/dvd. the error that comes up says something like "not enough memory......" then below it it says "boot". i haven't tried must other than the options on the installer, but i always seem to get the same error.
The computer im trying to install Amahi is an Intel core duo @ 3.0mhz, 8gb ram and 500gb hard drive. nothing in the hard drive except this copy of windows.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks!

The Express CD troubleshooting guidance might help. You also can consider trying Amahi 7 Full DVD as well.

unfortunately, there is nothing on this error on the troubleshooting page.

You also can consider trying Amahi 7 Full DVD as well.

Hi Bigfoot65,

After 5 hours of trying a number of methods I came across a post on the fedora site from 2011 about this issue. It has something to do with a setting called "memory hole" in the bios. To resolve this all I had to do was disable that setting and voila! Now since I created a number of partitions thinking it had something to do with hdd space or the dvds or the full install iso I was using I'm currently formatting the hdd and will install Amahi fresh. Will let you know how I go with take 2.

Thanks for your help.
