I downloaded the FC4t1 DVD test image and booting it also failed with this python error message. However I also tried the NFS approach (from earlier rawhide tests) and succeeded. I burned the images/mac/boot.iso onto a CDRW and put the DVD contents on my firewalls nfs share. Then I began installing FC4t1 on the mini mac using linux text askmethod. regards Philipp

Status of USB install support in FC4Test1?
by Bernd Bartmann 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

Hi, what's the status in FC4 Test1 for install support to USB storage devices. FC3 only seems to allow installation to USB storage devices in expert mode and even then you have to manually created an initrd with support for the USB storage modules. Is there any progress in this area planned for FC4? Thanks in advance, Bernd.

What's Happening With Fedora Core 4 Test 1?
by Robert L Cochran 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

I was on a business trip when Fedora Core 4 Test 1 was released. I disabled my mail delivery from this list during that time. Is there anything I need to know about installing this release and getting it to work? I'm downloading the x86_64 version. Any pitfalls? Thanks Bob Cochran Greenbelt, MD, USA

Cant install Fedora from a remote location
by Christian Moller 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

Hi all, I recently downloaded the Fedora test versionn, and I'm having problems installing it from a remote computer. What happens is that after the DVD has booted, I type: text telnet The server receives an IP address and says that it is waiting for a telnet connection. The remote computer is not connected to the local network. When trying to connect, the server seems to refuse the connection. Any idea or suggestion? Thanks, Christian

Fedora Core 3 Test Update: glibc-2.3.4-2.fc3.5
by Jakub Jelinek 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2005-239 2005-03-20 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : glibc Version : 2.3.4 Release : 2.fc3.5 Summary : The GNU libc libraries. Description : The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a Linux system will not function. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: The last attempt to fix dlclose caused several regressions, so the rpms here contain a different fix. It is in very tricky code, so I'd appreciate as much testing as possible, especially with applications that use dlopen/dlclose a lot with lots of libraries with complicated dependencies. Thanks. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Sat Mar 19 2005 Jakub Jelinek <jakub(a)redhat.com> 2.3.4-2.fc3.5 - better fix for the dlclose bug (#145810, #150414) * Thu Mar 03 2005 Jakub Jelinek <jakub(a)redhat.com> 2.3.4-2.fc3.4 -

mac mini install
by Gerald Henriksen 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

attempted to install test1 onto a mac mini (via http) but when the installer brings X up the resolution is messed up so that X is only displaying part of the installer programs (the buttons are off the bottom of the screen). Is there any easy fix to this so I can actually attempt to do an install?

I followed Colin Charles http://www.bytebot.net/geekdocs/ibook/fedorappc.html instructions at the end of the install process to check on yaboot.conf and /etc/inittab (I think enablecdboot and macosx= was still missing). For disk partitioning I used the manual mode of diskdruid and created the 1mb Apple Bootstrap partition and one more ext3 partition for / of FC4. Then I uninstalled the rhgb.rpm and removed the rhgb keyword from the kernel parameter list, because this is broken during booting (shows only 640x480. The resolution= parameter also never worked for me. Then I rebooted. After installation gdm was sucking up CPU resources which I fixed with yum update gdm - however only after disabling gpcheck in /etc/yum.conf, before yum was always complaining about the missing key. Then I used the Xautoconfig.rpm to create a working X config file and then FC4t1 worked on the Mac Mini. I could even make the USB CDC Ethernet driver work with the USB port of my Motorola SB4200 cable modem :-) The FC4t1 desktop looks fine and I like the way the menu got cleaned up.

FC4 t1 on minimac Xorg questions
by Bret Hughes 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

I installed FC4 t1 last night and after dinking a bit with the X configuration, I am working on getting the most out of the radeon 9200 built into the thing. some observations and a question or two. I used a graphical install with no problem other than the fact that anaconda never asked me to to configure x and left the box in a butt ugly 640X480 8 bit vga mode. I also never had a chance to add a non root user. Isn't all this a firstboot thing. I saw something in the list archives but thoutght I would mention it for another data point. I ran system-config-display and selected the 9200 and a generic LCD 1024X768 monitor and it looks fine. dmesg and Xorg.0.log report drm and dri in use. glxinfo says direct rendering is used. glx gears gets about 9 fps, And no I did not froget to put a 0 in there it reports nine frames per second. What do I need to look for? I have upgraded gcc and xorg-x11 et.al. from rawhide but I did not want to get too far into it withou asking for some guidance. Next I dl'ed MPlayer and tried to compile it. gcc 4x is not supported in the configure script so I used --disable-gcc-checking and after the warning about using a non supported complier, configure completed OK the compile fails in libavcodec with: cc -I../libvo -I../../libvo -I/usr/X11R6/include -O4 -maltivec -mabi=altivec -pipe -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer -D_REENTRANT -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DHAVE_AV_CONFIG_H -I.. -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -c -o common.o common.c In file included from avcodec.h:14, from common.c:28: common.h:69: error: array type has incomplete element type common.h:71: error: array type has incomplete element type make[1]: *** [common.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/MPlayer-1.0pre6a/libavcodec' make: *** [libavcodec/libavcodec.a] Error 2 Is there a 3.x compiler for FC4 or does anyone know the magic to get Mplayer to compile? Mplayer and hardware decoding of mpeg2 is the primary reason for this exercise. Any tips appreciated and if there is something some one want checked on this hardware let me know. It really is a neat little box. I can post any logs or info anyone needs/ wants to help me figure out what to do. Thanks in advance, Bret
