[Core2Test3] Hard disk installation
by Stefan Lecho
After booting from the first installation CD and
selecting harddisk as installation source, the
following message is generated: "The Fedora Core
installation tree in that directory does not seem to
match your boot media."
I've copied the downloaded iso images to a FAT32
partition and selected that as installation source.
How should the installation tree look like?
Regards, Stefan Lecho.

fc2t3: usb devices not accepting addresses, please confirm
by Jef Spaleta
Okay, I'm testing how my test3 box handles all the usb devices i
currently have up and running without a hitch on my fc1 box, but it
seems im hitting a kernel level problem with
usb device detection. The one bugzilla report i found about this sort
of error was against rhl9
and suggested a system hardware failure. So before i report this
problem to the zilla, Id
like to confirm if anyone has fc2t3 correctly seeing the same problem.
For my sanDisk Imagemate SDDR-31 flashcard usb reader i get these
messages in the /var/log/messages file when i plugin the usb device:
May 1 17:16:32 testbed kernel: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device
using address 6
May 1 17:16:33 testbed kernel: usb 1-1: device not accepting address
6, error -71
May 1 17:16:33 testbed kernel: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device
using address 7
May 1 17:16:34 testbed kernel: usb 1-1: device not accepting address
7, error -84
Ive also tried my ioplus PocketDisk usb keychain drive with similar
"not accepting address errors" on the test3 box, while it works on fc1
flawlessly. It could very well be the test box hardware is busted, so
if I'd like to see someone confirm if they have a problem with either
of these devices in fc2t3.

kernel-2.6.5-1.332 acting very slow.
by Jim Cornette
I am downloading the test 3 isos now and experienced a system slowdown.
I got errors to dmesg that were repetative and slowed down the system a lot.
The computer was not locked up, but slow as <enter very slow item here>
The bug that I filed was the below.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=121812
I could not find one similar. So I filed new. Is this a duplicate? Bug #?

Network domain vs Virtual domain in httpd
by Mike Chambers
Running FC2T3 here (fresh install)...
I have a domain name that is part of my home network that is
registered. It worked just fine when trying to access it via http and
getting the Fedora test page.
I have now added a new registered domain as a virtual host and it works
with no problems. Except now, the network domain name seems to show the
same index page that my virtual host uses.
Network domain..
http://www.netlyncs.com
Virtual host..
http://www.mitchellracin.com
You can see they go to the same page I guess.
Here is the URL to my httpd.conf file, and maybe someone can see what I
have configured wrong?

development (rawhide) archives messed up?
by G.Wolfe Woodbury
Did redhat mess up the development(rawhide) archives for FC2t3?
My latest rsync removed the headers and found a "buildinstall.dir"
This is with two different mirrors. Is it just a time artifact?

Annoying flashing in gnome-terminal
by Farzad Battiwalla
Does anyone have their whole screen flash when backspacing, when there is nothing to backspace, in gnome-terminal ?
If I press the backspace button in a new terminal window, when there is nothing to backspace, the whole screen flashes as if it's being redrawn slowly.
I'm running a Celeron 800, GA686BXS board w/t a Voodoo3 2000 AGP video, PCI SB 128 and a PCI 10/100 network card (Generic RTL8139).
