I burned a dvd this morning and used it to install F10. The install went fine and this time the problem went away completely. Firstboot ran as expected. I created a regular user account, logged in, ran updates, etc... One has to wonder, what are the odds that two different people had some weird dvd. As a side note: I had created the "problem" dvd I used previously on 12/04/08 ( I dated it), and that was a few days after the mainstream release on late November. ~af -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
