Hi, I am a Linux Newbie just trying to learn my way around. I just installed Fedora Core 3 on an Intel Pentium III 1 GHz PC that also runs Windows 2000. I went with the reiserfs. Anyway, the install went smoothly and I ran up2date. I did the MD5 checks and the media check on all CDs. At the first boot up I was asked to create a user so I typed in the information. When I went to run Linux again the user name and pw were not accepted so I logged in as root. When I looked at the user list (in User Manager) it was empty. Now here is the strange thing. I add the user jim and input a pw in the Create New User gui. When I click on OK the hour glass just keeps going and going and going ... . I have left the house and come back over two hours later and the new user is still not created! What am I missing here? Where should I start to look? Obviously I do not want to keep running Linux as root. I would appreciate your help. Thanks, Jim __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Check out the new Yahoo! Front Page. www.yahoo.com
