Grub Duall Boot Problem
by James Black
Having a Windows XP Installed and also wanted to boot in linux I found
that this is a problem on FC4 r3 64bit when in fc3 works great... It
seems that grub starts on basic command line, and if i try from rescue
mode to : chroot /mnt/sysimage and then grub-install /dev/hda
1) Nothing Happens
2) sometimes it drives me to error 17 or error 15
It also seems to work great for grub-install /dev/fd0....
It looks like Something is really wrong with grub in this pre-release!

install freezes at performing post install configuration...
by Martin
Using today's latest rawhide, near
the end of the install, the install freezes at "
"performing post install configuration..."
Looking at dmsg output, there seems to be a NULL pointer
dereference at avc_audit+0x2b7/0xbe0. Not sure if that
had anything to do with it though. I did disable selinux
during install without any help.
This is on a Sony vaio z1ra notebook. Haven't tried on
other systems.

software(kernel)-based PCI memhole remap in FC4_test3
by Tim Taranov
here is the deal - I downloaded and installed fc4 test3 on my machine
(2x246 opterons, Tyan S2895 mobo, 4x1G ECC ram, nvidia 6600gt 16x
pci-express, SATA drive etc). Running the default kernel
...1286_FC4smp for x86_64 build.
If I enable software-based PCI mem hole remapping in my mobo's bios
then my workstation completely freezes after opening 1 or 2 web pages
in Firefox or any other bundled browser in KDE, Gnome (that the first
thing I noticed, there most likely are a bunch of other OS problems).
If this bios setting is set to disabled then no problems, however then
Linux does not see the full 4 gigs of my ram due to the PCI bus map
(linux does see the full 4gigs if I set the memhole remap to be
"software"-based). Anyone else is having the same issues with
software-based PCI memhole remap?

usb disks?? Automounting on /media once, slow writing
by René van Paassen
Inserted a usb 2.0 disk, and the thing duly shows up on /media/usbdisk
However, writing was painfully slow, order of 100 kB/s
Tried a second disk, this one would not automount. After manually
mounting it (/dev/sde1) it ran well, with normal writing speed.
Inserted the original disk again, and would not automount. After manual
mount (/dev/sde this time) it also ran well.

BTW, FC4 looks great. My only remaining concern for x86_64 is how to get
a shockwave flash and a java plugin installed

Problems starting samba ...
by Jon 780
FC4test3 x86_64
[root@nb01 ~]# service smb start
Starting SMB services: /etc/init.d/functions: line 83: 3591 Aborted
$nice $*
[FAILED]
Starting NMB services: [ OK ]
Line83 in "functions" : daemon() {
Its just the first line of the definition for the daemon function. It
actually appears to be bombing out right here (line 146):
# And start it up.
if [ -z "$user" ]; then
$nice $*
If I comment out the "$nice $*" line it starts up without a hiccup.
I'm not very famaliar with nice or shell scripting, so I'd definitely
be interested in hearing what the problem is (or more specifically,
what I'm doing wrong!).
Thanks guys, love FC4.
