Hello All,
Here is my experience with test1 so far. I apologize if there is too MUCH detail, but I've never really installed a test version before so I'm trying to be helpful.
Using the 4 CD's, i386 on a Toshiba Satellite 1755 laptop
On boot - Skipped mediacheck (in case anyone is curious, I have read of problems)
Anaconda (only minor things) - Some icons did not appear until the mouse moved over them, at which point they became visible. If I recall correctly, this was either on the Choose Language or Choose Keyboard Layout screen, or both - After the last package begins to install (this was at-spi), I was prompted to change from CD#4 back to CD#2, which was already installed? - During the "Post-Install Configuration", after the progress bar reached the halfway point, there was about a 2-3 minute pause with no hard disc activity before continuing - The final screen where you are told "Congratulations & Reboot", the text being presented spills off the side of the screen -After clicking reboot, a screen full of GTK deprecation warnings appears on the console before any TERM signals are sent.
Once the reboot is done, upon booting into FC, the graphical boot screen tells me "Failed to bring up eth0" - my /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 all look okay - For the first time, during install I chose to "Enable firewall", but I'm not sure how to disable it, or if that should have any effect - Tried the following (Note: I have a Compaq PCMCIA ethernet adapter. Worked fine in FC3.)
cd /etc/init.d ./pcmcia restart
Starting PCMCIA services: cardmgr[2907]: watching 2 sockets done
./network start
Bringing up loopback interface [OK] Bring up interface eth0 [FAILED]
I haven't been able to do anything else (such as test the other patches in devel tree) since I can't yum
Any ideas how to fix my ethernet?
Thank you,
Doug Sievers dsievers@users.sourceforge.net

While posting to the test-list is a good idea to give other testers insight and to try to get confirmation from other testers about issues you see, its important to make sure each of these minor problems gets filed in bugzilla if they are no already there. Please don't forget to search bugzilla and create bug reports for each of the issues you noticed.
