I would like to disagree that linux is ready for 2 of these 3 examples, and
I look forward to being educated where I am wrong.
"internet". The PC my kids use would be Linux except for 2 things,
zoogdisney.com and cartoonnetwork.com. Both of these require some sort of
Macromedia product that I just can't get working in any browser I've tried
(I'm using RH 9, by the way).
"checkbook". Is there any software that will directly connect to my bank's
website and download transactions the way Quicken does? How about the
American Express and Discover sites? Quicken does that.

severn or yarrow ?
by Hunt,Russ
When I started downloading the ISO's for fedora on Tuesday the version
listed at the fedora site was severn-i386-disc1.iso etc.
For various reasons I've only downloaded so far discs 1 + 2 and this morning
notice the ISO's listed as yarrow 1-3 rather than severn 1-3
I see there are various mirror sites from where I cane still get
severn-i386-disc3.iso but what is the difference between severn and yarrow ?

Server Install
by David Cary Hart
I could use some advice.
I have the three ISO images - now mounted on our server. If I ./autorun
I end up with the Redhat package manager. Presumably, this will allow me
to upgrade existing packages from RH9.
1. Is it perilous to upgrade or should I do a clean install?
2. At some point, it will - possibly - ask me to insert the next cd -
yes? How do I direct the install to the disc2 partition or can/should I
mount all three cds to the same partition?
3. Is this the correct method of invoking the installation?
Thanks.

what cd download ?
by Salvatore Basso
Hello all, I ask excuse for the question banal but they are not much expert
of linux, I I would want to download images ISO in order then to install on
a machine that does not have some operating system.
To the voice download they are present is files of the type
"yarrow-SRPMS-disc1.iso" that file of the type "yarrow-i386-disc1.iso"
which I must downnload (my computer with intel pentium 3) ? and moreover
they must be written to cd-rom in some different modality ? I still ask
excuse for the questions and thanks !.

Announcing Fedora Core 1
by Bill Nottingham
RALEIGH, N.C., Nov 6, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Red Hat, Inc. (NASDAQ:
RHAT), the world's premier open source software provider, today
announced the availability of Fedora(TM)Core 1, the first software
release of the Fedora Project.
The Fedora Project is a Red Hat-sponsored and community-supported open
source project that promotes rapid development of innovative open
source software through a collaborative, community effort. Fedora Core
1 provides a complete Linux platform built exclusively from open
source software. Available at no cost, the release serves the needs of
community developers, testers, and other technology enthusiasts who
wish to participate in and accelerate the technology development
process.
As a community forum for advanced development, the Fedora Project
provides early visibility to the latest open source technology and

Hat Enterprise Linux. Red Hat contributes development resources,
editorial direction and management to the Fedora Project.
Following this release, Red Hat and the community's efforts will turn
to the development of Fedora Core 2, which will focus on the next wave
of leading edge technology including the integration of the Linux 2.6
kernel. Developers and testers alike are welcome to visit
fedora.redhat.com and get directly involved with building the future
of Linux.

by Randal, Phil
yarrow-i386-disc1.iso through yarrow-i386-disc3.iso are required to install.
Download the images, and burn image from your CD recording software. If
you're a Windows user, both Nero and Roxio's CD Creator have this feature,
but you'll have to find out where yourself.

Slow shutdowns
by Ted Kaczmarek
Running Gnome/Fedora core, I have been randomly seeing very slow
shutdowns. Init 0 from a remote ssh session is fine.
Anyone else seeing this?

Upgrading RH 8.0 with Fedora RPM's
by Tarjei Knapstad
I've got a RH 8.0 development box, on which I would like to upgrade gcc
to 3.3.2.
Would it be a particularly bad idea to upgrade using the Fedora RPM's,
i.e. would this break my current distribution in any way? AFAIK the C++
ABI is now frozen (as of 3.2 and up), so theoretically there shouldn't
be any problems with upgrading libstdc++ etc., but theory and practice
are almost never the same...
Any tips/pointers appreciated!
Cheers,
