A few months ago, I tried to install fedora on a Dell Optiplex 320 mini-tower. After some problems and googling, I found out that this model's bios, graphics setup, and(something else I forgot) seem to resist mightily the idea of running fedora. People seemed to have problems getting grub running and the SATA disk in that model doesn't like LVM. This guy (http://wirelessness.wordpress.com/2007/02/07/installing-fedora-linux-on-a-dell-optiplex-320/) claims to have gotten fc6 running on a 320, after 19 hours of tweaking. I tried following his advice, but didn't get far. Now I am wondering whether anyone on the list can suggest either a comparable PC from Dell that will not be so annoying, or perhaps the whole issue has become moot since then (fc8?) and I should try again? The workstation 490s have given me no trouble, but they cost more. By the way, knoppix runs fine on the 320 - what's up with that? Dave
