kam... hate to say it... which is why this is off list... but your suggestion to essentially blow awy work was totally f*ed up!! i'm pretty much back.. at least to getting it to a working state.. over time we'll figure out what we're missing.. but some apps that got toasted weren't being used.. others that we need, we'll discover and repair... and i'm not sure where you decided you have the ability to speak for 'the list'... but keep on, and thanks for the earlier help! peace... -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Kam Leo Sent: Saturday, April 23, 2005 8:56 PM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Subject: Re: kernel question..

You are in too much of a hurry! You totally borked your FC2 setup. Your upgrade (?) to FC3 seems to also be borked. Just start over. Insert FC3_CD1, reboot, and install over the current partitions. Do not attempt to preserve any data. That will be a waste of your time as well as the list's. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
