something else that bugs me. If I upgrade from Shrike to FC4, I get the regular console startup stuff. If I install FC4 from scratch, I get a graphical thing during boot, and i have to press one of the buttons to see what's going on. when your machine only has dual P2's this doesn't work too well. Is there a way to install from scratch and get the console boot thing like there was in Shrike?
I don't know about "from scratch" but it is quite easy to get the desired behavior.
Go to your /etc/grub directory and edit the kernel lines to remove the "rhgb" parameter. rhgb=red hat graphical boot.
FWIW, it would be nice if folks would stop using this thread for "kitchen sink" items. Create a new thread with meaningful subjects! This thread is getting very boring with things that have nothing to do with Fedora. I'm just about getting ready to put this subject in a kill file as well....
