Drives will not format...
by Brian Rademacher
System is an Abit SU-2S, dual Opteron 246, 2 gigs ECC, 2 Maxtor 300 gig
SATA-II drives, Marvell 88SX-6081 SATA II controller...
I can get each drive to format on it's own and install, but when both are
connected, formatting in software RAID 0, or even leaving it as the default
"automatic" partitions results in:
Writing inode tables 980/4454 (then it stops)
Warning, had trouble writing out superblocks...Anaconda dies shortly
thereafter saying that it can't continue...
Then the drives go off line, and "Rejecting I/O to offline device" shows up
in dmesg...
I've taken out RAM, passed every kernel parameter I can think of before the
install, wiped out the HDs with DD, etc...

FC4T2: no sound on Intel motherboard sound (snd-intel8x0)
by Mary Ellen Foster
Mostly the install went fine -- the DVD iso failed mediacheck, but I
decided to ignore that and it seems to have gone fine.
However, when I ran the soundcard test in firstboot, no sound came
from the internal speakers. It seems to have thought that something
was playing, but I didn't hear anything. Same thing if I do
system-config-soundcard. I have tried un-muting everything I could
think of in alsamixer, but no dice.
Anyone else seen this with Intel motherboard sound? It worked fine in
test 1 and through all the rawhide updates ...

FC2T2 install
by John Pearson
This looks like a flawless install. The iso's failed the integrity check,
but installation was no problem. I did a personal computer installation, so
that I only needed to download 2 isos. yum update failed until I disabled
the gpgcheck, since some of the packages lacked signatures. Then the update
went without a problem.
I am adding packages and testing -- KDE for a civilized desktop
[duck/cover/snigger], and other amenities.
This looks really good.

note to vmware users
by Gene C.
On a FC4T1 systems updated to the latest kernel (2.6.11-1.1231_FC4) (and
x86_64 system in my case) with VMware workstation 5 RC3 (12888), trying to
configure/run vmware host stuff will cause a kernel panic!
It seems to work OK with the 2.6.11-1.1226_FC4 kernel.

gnome splash screen stays around
by Msquared
Hiya!
The gnome splash screen on my FC4t1 setup stays around after I log in,
until I click in it.
If it's a known problem, please let me know which packages fix it (I can't
download all 440M worth of updates through my tiny dialup). If it's not
yet a known problem, let me know what you need to know to help someone
diagnose the cause.
Regards, Msquared...

FC4 Test1 - Lock at boot loader, no keyboard active
by jery_wang
I'm getting a failure very early in the boot loader; keyboard
locks. The same thing happens with the Rescue CD. Knoppix boots
fine. Checksum of CD1 is fine.
Details;
System: Laptop: Dell Latitude CPx.
1. Waited 5 minutes w/o touching the keyboard to see if there was
some odd timing issue. Nope. Looks like a hard lock.
2. Function keys (F1...) do not work, and the cursor is flush left on
the line just below the [ character in [F1-Main].
3. Keyboard lights do not toggle. (Tried with laptop keyboard plus
plugged in both a PS/2 and a USB keyboard. Powered off the machine
each time.)
4. The files on both CD 1 and Rescue are fully readable. Under Linux
(FC3), running "sha1sum /dev/hdb" with CD 1 in the drive hands back
the correct checksum;
6891c664a917bbee2a5e8d685fd8e9797ec1b8ab
5. Knoppix 2.4 and 2.8 boot and the keyboard is fully active.
Knoppix 2.8 was burned to the same media as FC4 test1 CD 1.
6. The FC4 rescue CD was burned to a different brand of media just to
eliminate that as an issue.
7. The system bios configuration also works.
8. FC3 and a few previous versions of RHL/FCL were installed
sucessfully on the same machine previously.
9. The CD lense was cleaned as a last attempt to get it working. No
dice.
Note that I do not have a floppy drive on this machine and it is not
capable of booting from USB. If someone knows how to kick off a boot
using some other method, I'd appreciate it.

About submitting updated package
by Luya Tshimbalanga
Hello to Fedora developers,
I thank you for prociding response from my previous post "Is it possible to make Fedora boot faster?". Since then, my fellow FC3 users understand the process.
The other message is addressing to Warren Togami or any developers. It is about submitting blender 2.36 package as I am very new using the wiki configuration and cvs. I reused the 2.35 spec and brought some cleaning. Let me know how do I send spec and build source, Thanks
