(sorry if this is the wrong place to post this) For days I have been trying to install Fedora core 4 (ppc) on my Mini Mac I have repartitioned destroyed partitions etc and every time it errors with ignore or cancel messages about partition blocks I can press ignore and go on but it generally bombs out when it comes to the actual formatting of the new partitions I've defined and the copy of files part , on one occasion it seemed to actually install but on reboot it failed to load kernel image There is nothing wrong with the hdd I have no issues at all installing tiger back on the Mini Mac , but do what I will it actively refuses to have anything to do with Fedora. Has anyone else experienced this problem ?

You'll love it. I just removed KDE, so I can't try it, but looking at a website about it, that just looks like network browsing. Does it extend the feature to other applications though? (i.e. Beyond Konqueror.) So, for example, if you were using your word processor and wanted to open or save a file over the network, you could use a remote path that wasn't mounted somewhere onto the directory tree? It sounded like the original poster wanted to do something like that, and I know I have from time to time.

I have it working, but the AD is at another location and controlled by someone else so I don't know what options had to be set. I'd guess you either have to install matching keys or turn off the secure option. Another option is to have the AD replicate the zone to the windows DNS server that works it you are going to keep that one around, then have linux do the zone transfer from there. We just made that change as the AD went into production using a new domain name so everything else could keep using the old DNS server addresses. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx ------------------------------ Message: 7 Date: Fri, 12 Aug 2005 08:44:22 -0400 From: Gavin Li <gavinl@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: how to instal RHFC to run on i386 To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Message-ID: <11E3973D1E78D311A5B400508B4A70CE029C2E46@COMSRVR> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 I want to install RHFC to let it run on a i386, (actually it is i586), but I don't want to run installation on a Pentium PC, because it is too slow.

Does anyone know how to do > it? That's not something that can be done during the install, but you can easily change that after install is complete. For glibc, rpm -Uvh --oldpackage glibc-2.3*.i386.rpm should do the job, similarly you'll need to handle other *.i686.rpm's (at least openssl) and then install the i586 kernel.

Hi Ben, To be completely safe, there are a couple of things to do here. You need to change gdm's config to remove the menu options. Open /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf in a text editor and find the [greeter] section. Make sure there is a line like this: [greeter] ... SystemMenu=false This removes the shutdown/reboot options from the log-in screen and the log-out dialog. Alternatively run gdmconfig and provide the root password, then uncheck the 'Show action menu' option on the security tab. To prevent users opening a terminal and running poweroff or reboot, delete or move these files: /etc/security/console.apps/poweroff /etc/security/console.apps/reboot If your machines use ACPI, you will also need to disable ACPI-driven shutdowns from the power button. On more to go now, to prevent someone switching to a virtual console and hitting ctrl-alt-del, we need to edit inittab. Find the line that looks like this: # Trap CTRL-ALT-DELETE ca::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t3 -r now And change it to read: # Disallow CTRL-ALT-DELETE ca::ctrlaltdel:/bin/echo "ctrl-alt-delete has been disabled" (You can use /bin/true, or /usr/bin/logger etc. here instead if you wish - just watch out if someone tries ctrl-alt-del before /usr is mounted :) Kind regards, > -- > Ben Steeves _ bcs@xxxxxxxxxx > The ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) ben.steeves@xxxxxxxxx > against HTML e-mail X GPG ID: 0xB3EBF1D9 > http://www.metacon.ca/bcs / \ Yahoo Messenger: ben_steeves > -- Bryn M.
