Hello all!

So...quick disclaimer, I am an IT guy but my area is mostly MS related so I have knowledge but not quite the right one for this project.

I want to build an Amahi server for my home I have a couple computers available for that one is from around 2005, I first tried with this one which is a Pentium D with 2Gb RAM a a 320Gb hard drive. Overall the computer works pretty well but I couldn´t for the love of IT make it past the initial setup screen, I was able to select the language then after that it would randomly crash, screen went black and computer was frozen. Assuming it was too old I got the other one, a Lenovo H505s with a AMD E2-1800 1.7 GHz, 2Gb RAM and a 1Tb HDD.

On this one all I got was this:


I changed some settings in the BIOS which is very limited, mostly the secure boot and CSM. No major changes in behavior. I also tried couple USB drives, external hard drives and DVD.

Won´t Fedora run under that CPU´s spec?

Thanks in advance!

edit: Tried both netinstall and full dvd, desktop is connected to the internet.
