It didn't work out well at all. While I had no installation problems, many other things were a mess. The PCMCIA card was not detected. The onboard ethernet was detected, but did not work when set up via DHCP or static IP. I could not get on the network no matter what I tried. My USB mouse would not function. The LCD was not detected by the installer, but worked ok when I set it up manually. It was exteremly slow. The results of a simple ps command took over 2 minutes to run. Some applications just didn't do anything at all. While I didn't have any error messages, it was still unusable for me. After trying to get things going after a couple hours, I finally gave in, and just re-installed FC1, which works perfectly by the way. I would like to have been able to spend more time trying to figure out the problems, but I had to have it working by the time I went back to work.
