Hello colesdav,
I read your posts, but they made me frightened, as I read from ,locked keyboard and mouse'.
I'm happy, that my new centos is running widely and killing my system and installing again is no option for me.
But maybe, that the driver had been running prior to my attempts.
(If that is true, the CentOS-Installer would have installed it itself)
So it may be, that there is no need to install the drivers, which I downloaded from the AMD-Site?
It is not so clear for me, sorry.
OK, it would be not a good answer to the question, why the AMD-Installer doesn't work,
but it would be a solution for me, if the speed of graphic display is sufficient ..
(I need for some software vmware ....)
Greetings,
Kaengo
