I just set up FC3t3 on a Toshiba p35 s609 - it went well!
I set it up as a dual boot with the oem WinXP Home SP2 and used knoppix to resize the partition and then installed FC3. NO disk geometry problems!! I didn't use any of the workarounds that were necessary with fc2, and the install was flawless.
Now I only have a couple minor problems to work through. One, is the convoluted process that I am finding to install drivers for artheros wifi - which I have gone through twice now without success. I know its a longshot, but has anyone had success with these drivers on fc3?
Also, the install failed to recognize the touchpad which windows reports to be an "alps pointing device" which is a touchpad and 2 buttons (no "stick.") It is doing well with a wireless usb mouse, though.
ALPS requires kernel patches for support, when they go upstream we'll get the support.
