Install 9.04, update disk

[Lisa Kachold]

Try to boot vesa or no frame buffer?

To build a driver disk you need to simply have the drivers on media.  You
will be prompted for the path by the Installation CD.

Choose NVidia Drivers by card and Os:

If you can boot into a shell of some type (Fedora 10 generally support
NVidia Quadro FX 3000).  You can run this script to verify that your driver
is actually the driver that matches your NVidia card:
