Have you run "grub-install /dev/hdb1" from your FC3 > installation? Paul, a) you know I am green on this system , what I did regrading GRUB is simply through the installation procedure saying that I wanted to install GRUB onto hbd1 ! but I will try to execute this command and see. b) regarding what you told me for GPG-KEY : rpm --import /usr/share/doc/fedora-release-3/RPM-GPG-KEY* it worked fine and I could globally update my system but it took forever hours and hours though I have ADSL ! ; I have seen somewhere a "yum.conf" file proposed to solve this type of problem ; to stay on the positive side whom to contact to to modify the error message obtained before executing your command that is to say : .................. You have enabled checking of packages via GPG keys. This is a good thing. However, you do not have any GPG public keys installed. You need to download the keys for packages you wish to install and install them. You can do that by running the command: rpm --import /usr/share/doc/fedora-release-3/RPM-GPG-KEY* .................. instead of : .................. You have enabled checking of packages via GPG keys. This is a good thing. However, you do not have any GPG public keys installed. You need to download the keys for packages you wish to install and install them. You can do that by running the command: rpm --import public.gpg.key .................. which is more relevant ! I will keep you posted for LILO -> GRUB and launch phase 2 ; installation of kernel source to compile my Tekram SCSI pilot. -- Daniel Moyne (Nulix)---------------------------------------------------------- Distribution : Mandrake 10.0 \\|// kernel 2.4 / --- \ KDE 3.2 (' o-o ') ------------------------------------oOO-(_)-OOo-------------------------------
