Just an FYI. Apparently a 1GHz AMD Duron is not in the same class processor as an Intel PII.( Minimum requirements for F-13 are PII w/ 384 MB of RAM) I tried installing all of the way back to Fedora 8 with no luck. It just kept stalling. I have successfully installed an old Mandrake 8.2 on it and it runs great. Will be upgrading to Mandrake 10.2 tomorrow. I just now got Fedora 10 installed on my old Dell laptop with a 750MHz PIII. I have concluded that Fedora doesn't like some AMD processors. I'm curious to know if anyone else has had problems with older AMD processors. Rod McCown ><> UNIX Senior Systems Admin.
