transition from red hat 9 to fedora
by George Alexeief 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

As a very happy RH9 user, I was also a little worried about what switching to Fedora will mean -- instability? No support? From what I gather so far, it seems that Fedora Core will fill the gap that RH9's death will create. And if Fedora doesn't cut it, then there's always SuSe -- so no matter what, us low-cost Linux users will have somewhere to go.

Fedora, grub/lilo, and software-RAID
by Troels Arvin 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

Hello, I just read that Fedora is going to ditch lilo, leaving grub. Grub is great for many systems, but it's a nightmare for people booting on software-RAID. I strongly suggest that lilo still be included in Fedora until grub becomes able to install properly on software-RAID boot-partitions.

Quite odd. Ditto. Or at least from one machine. I have two machines running test3. One works with graphical boot, the other does not. The one that does not is an OLD HP Vectra VL. It has a P2 and 128MB RAM. The one that does work is a little Compaq Presario with a Celeron and 320MB. Neither has any of the new fancy graphics cards. The fact that they differ in this relatively minor way is indeed odd.

missing RPM in desktop install -- xsri-2.1.0-6
by Alan Peery 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

I get 80%+ through installation of a default desktop installation, and the installation stops at "The package xsri-2.1.0-6 cammnot be opened. This is due to a missing file or perhaps a corrup package..." At this point the install will let me retry forever, but not skip the package and continue on. Is there any way to work around this? The md5sums of the .iso files are correct, so I don't think I've had a download problem. Detail: I happen to be installing the software under VMWare (version 3.0, running on a Windows XP host). I've swapped the .iso files by suspending the virtual machine and "swapping cdroms" by renaming the .iso files on my hard drive. I've used this technique many times, and it worked for 20 minutes following the switch, so I don't think this is likely to be the problem. Alan

up2date sources
by Chris Spencer 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

What should the sources currently be set to? /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources is using: yum rawhide http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/ Anyone that is getting updates care to tell me what they are using? I see that the rpms are available at: http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i386/Fedora/RPMS/ for manual download. Thanks -Chris "As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such twilight that we all must be most aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness." - Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas
