f7t1 ate my data dragging it to k3b data project window
by Gerry Tool
I just installed k3b in f7t1 and opened it to a new data project. I
selected a directory I wanted to backup to CD and dragged it to the
d3b window.
The directory completely disappeared from the hard drive! Fortunately
my backup server backed this directory (59.8MB) up to its harddrive
last night and I was able to restore it from FC6.
If anyone wants me to repeat this test with a non-important data
directory for troubleshooting, or knows what I should bugzilla this
to, let me know.

How to use rawhide boot iso?
by Bruno Wolff III
Because I have a problem with the F7T1 spin not recognizing my hard drives,
I am trying to use the current boot.iso in development to do an install.
The current boot iso does seem to see my hard drives, but I still couldn't
do a hard drive install. I think this is because the partitions are tagged
as software raid partitions and the install seems to be trying to mount
them as vfat file systems. I bugzilla'd this case.
I also tried using the cdrom (using DVDs) install, but it doesn't like
switching to either the original F7T1 install DVD or a nonbootable DVD with
rawhide images and rpms layed out with the same directory structure as
the F7T1 DVD. Both DVDs are mountable under FC5 and verified successfully
when I burned them. Unfortunately the error message is not very specific
about what has gone wrong. I can't tell if the mounts are failing, the
directory layout isn't what is expected or if there is something else going
wrong.
What I am hoping someone can tell me is whether or not I am doing things the
way I am supposed to for the CD install. If I am I'll bugzilla it, if not
some hint as to what I need to change would be appreciated.

fc7t1- gdm crash and keep getting blank screen
by Yonas Abraham
I installed fc7t1 on my dell dimension 4300 with 17 in flat screen,
and randomly I got a black/blank screen after boot or after I log out
instead of the nice gdm greater. I have to hit Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to
restart it. Some times it works after just one try but some times I
have to try it several time. should I file a bug report against xorg
or gdm?
lspci report the graphics as:
Display controller: Intel Corporation 82915G Integrated Graphics
Controller (rev 04)
any help?

I hadn't considered that, but the alternate route sounds just as bad.
Server, Desktop, and KDE? All maybe 2GB. That's almost as bad as one 4.7
and one partial DVD image. And what about the CD collections for them. How
many CD's total is that going to be per platform? Sounds like angry mirrors
either way. You can always give me their email addresses I guess; I like
arguiing with people; but on second thought that I might be a bad idea, as
you may end up with far less mirrors than you have now. ;)
But the question I asked before that still hasn't been answered, is how big
is Extras right now? It looks (probably quite desceptively) relatively
small when looking at the directory on download.fedora.redhat.com. Does the
sum total for Core and Extras really add up to more than the 4.7 GB that a
DVD would provide? Do you really even need two DVD images to get a complete
install?

kpdf missing from f7t1?
by Gerry Tool
I tried to install kpdf, my favorite pdf reader and the result is:
[root@localhost yum.repos.d]# yum install kpdf
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Parsing package install arguments
No Match for argument: kpdf
Nothing to do
Do I need to enable some other repo, or is it not available?

torrent very quick, why? (not complaining) - also desktop, upgradeable?
by Jim Cornette
Is there a technical reason why the torrent was as quick as it way? I
never got 700k transfers before with the torrent. Usually I only get 20k
to 40k transfers.
Upload is only 20k to feed the torrent on my machine though.
Switching to the desktop version DVD, are upgrades workable? I have a
lot of applications that are from all classes. Since I'm seeding the
torrent (very little speed though) I have not tried to install yet.
I will probably do an install on fresh computers but was wondering how
much of a problem will limited models inflict on "everything
installations" if upgrades were attempted.
