Kernel BUG in xenguest-install.py
by Dario Alcocer
Before Anaconda displays its opening screen, the following is printed on
the console:
kernel BUG at include/asm/xor.h:633!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1]
SMP
I can reproduce this every time I run this install script. I'm running
on an AMD Athlon XP 2400+ with 768MB, with the following install options:
What is the name of your virtual machine? junk
How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 256
What would you like to use as the disk (path)? /dev/stg/junk.xen
What is the install location? nfs:coyote:/mnt
I'm installing to a LVM logical volume from a FC5t3 DVD image mounted
read-only via a loopback device.
If anyone has a clue as to what I'm doing wrong, please let me know.

I've submitted a patch upstream to make strict focus approximation

Reported bugs -- yes they were
by Leslie S Satenstein
Hi Rahul,
It is till Friday in Canada, but I note the time you are responding. I complement you on your dedication.
Yes, in response to your question, I filed bugs, and yes, there are some keyboard changes coming after go live.
As for being able to shutdown from any account. It says that Core5 cannot be used as a server and also have another guest user who could issue that command.
I should not have to modify the halt / shutdown / reboot stuff to add security. If I want a guest end user to do a shutdown,
I want to extend that privledge to him.
This last point is philosophical (I have a UPS to prevent power spike generated shutdowns, and on the otherhand, any user can issue a shutdown request.)
GNOME project is saying they can control access to what is shown on a user's menu. Perhaps that is the way to do it, to prevent access to restricted software.

Beagle daemon not started
by Uno Engborg
When I do a beagle search for the first time after logging on to the system
I get the error message "Daemon not running" and a button to start it.
Shouldn't the beagle daemon be started automagically? Is there some setting
to do this somewhere that I havn't find. If not what's the best way to
start it.
Regards

floppy module not compiled for Xen0
by J M
Is there a reason that the floppy.ko module is compiled for the standard
kernel, but not for kernel-xen0? It appears to work without any problems...

Help Needed: TEST FC5 KERNELS!
by Warren Togami
http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/devel/
If you are running rawhide FC5 on any architecture, please update to the
latest kernel here often, reboot and test. We need your feedback very
quickly if a new kernel here causes regressions, because we are rapidly
approaching what will become the FC5 final kernel.
If your box is SMP or dual-core, please test booting the uniprocessor
and multi-processor kernels if your architecture has both kernel builds.
In cases where we have separate uniprocessor and SMP kernels (x86 and
ppc), we need both tested because the installer uses uniprocessor while
your yum updated system might not by default.
Please keep in mind that we are only interested in regressions in things
that would break installation and booting at this point. If issue has
always existed in past Fedora, then it would not be useful to push it
again now. PLEASE REPORT ONLY REGRESSIONS
Thank you,
Warren Togami

Install FC5test3 x86 and x86-64
by James Hubbard
I've installed FC5T3 x86 on a usb drive. I've got it working well.
When I try to install the x86-64 version. It gives me an error of
disk full.
The root and boot directory are on the 3 partition. When I attempt to
intall the x86-64, I am using usr-boot/ for the /boot directory and
usb-x86-64 for the root directory. I'm attempting to use the same
home directory.
Prior to getting this installation working with the x86. I installed
x86-64 first and it installed without any problems. When I attempted
to install x86, it wouldn't work. It gives me the same error that the
x86-64 install did. Disk full... Cannot unmount the Cdrom drive. I
can't remember the exact message. I tried to dump it to floppy but it
wouldn't work.
I'm going to attempt to do this again. I'll try to get a better error message.
Drive layout
1: usb-boot/
2: usb-x86-64/
3: usb-x86-32/
5: usb-home/
