Buddy, I didn't set the system date to future, it WAS already set when I 
got this computer and was told to put Linux on it.
And about system being buggy. Fedora Core 1 is the FIRST stable release of 
fedora and as such, it can be buggy (and it is).
Thanks to Christoph, but I already tried that, didn't work. I'm starting to 
think, that something is wrong with the partition itself. I guess I could 
fix it, if I spent enaugh time working on it and mailing in this list, but 
it seems easier to either change the partition, or change the distro 'till 
new fedora is out. Nothing personal, it's just facts. ;)
Thanks for your help, really I didn't mean to upset anyone. ;)
