I need to install F15 without Gnome, KDE, XFCE, or LXDE. The target has 1 GB of flash for the filesystem. So how can I install F15 with X, but without a DE?
Thanks,
John
Absolutely!
You will probably need to get either the installation DVD or the Network install CD, I don't recall seeing package options when installing from live media.
http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-all
I would opt for the minimum install and then select "Customize now". From there you can select X and any other packages you may require.
Note that when you install Fedora with no DE, it defaults to runlevel 3 at bootup.
Do you need to do anything special with X?

Thanks very much for the reply. I've haven't install from a DVD in a long time, I've just used the live cds that don't let you choose packages. Nothing special require, just a very small install.

John

I would suggest 2 things:
1. febootstrap - # yum install febootstrap 2. use kickstart files to install, you can start here: https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/browser

I always do my installs off the DVD. There's also a "minimal" install that I use on my servers. It works well.
Then, you'd just "yum install" whatever to get X.

Another question on this. If I default to runlevel 3, will removable media like CDs, DVDs and USB drives still be mounted automatically upon insertion?

AFAIK, by default no, they won't. This is typically done by the graphical DE. Namely, if there is no user currently logged in the desktop GUI, it is not obvious which user should be set as owner of the files in the mount point.
However, I think this can be configured so that things get automounted with a pre-specified owner etc. Google is your friend. ;-)

man fstab As Marko already remarked - google is your friend. I would search for udev rules.

No, and more fun will come when you want to connect to a wireless network.

nmcli does a pretty good job.
Has anyone noticed that even if you use two network cards that only one nic is really doing all the traffic. I noticed this with many different types of network cards and nics. I even setup snmp monitoring, cacti, etc and noticed that both IP's and one interface is doing all the work. Even setup bonding and still does the same thing.
Is this a driver issue or am I simply not using enterprise hardware?

Don't hijack threads. When you have a new topic, compose a new message instead of replying to an existing one. Changing the Subject line is not enough.

Both interfaces won't be used.
Packets will travel out of which ever interface has a route to their destination.
If both interfaces have the same route, then it'll use the route with the lower metric.
With bonding, it depends on the mode you are using.
If you are using 802.3ad, then from what I understand (someone correct me if I'm wrong here!), you won't get the speed of both interfaces (ie, 2x gigabit ports bonded together won't mean you can transfer a single file at 2 gigabits/s) but rather you can have two separate transfers that together are going at 2 gigabits/s.

I don't have any problem with two nic's, first one is for internal traffic (LAN) and the other ones is dedicated for WAN traffic (Internet)
both nic's work at differents subnet
