Hello Jared,
I have installed FC4T3 on my IBM ThinkPad T-30 and it installed
flawlessly as well. And you right - there is still a bug with Up2Date,
as it freezes. In fact, I prefer to use YUM anyway because I can see
the results as the updates download. The only problem that I initially
had after the installation was that LimeWire did not function properly.
I corrected that situation by using a newer version of Java and it was
working again. The only difference between you and me is that I am using
the Gnome desktop environment, which works great for me.
