What grub options do I need to add to grub.conf to boot F7 on an HP-dv5120us?
by Gene Heskett
I have quite a list of them that FC5 needed to boot with, on an HP-dv5120us
lappy.
Like:
kernel (version) noacpi noapic pci=assign-busses lapic
Will these still be required for F7? Its an AMD 64, running i386 stuffs.
Thanks.

installing a live cd on a server
by Scott Berry
Hello there,
I have a server here which runs fc6 but wanting it upgraded to f7. Can I
use the live cd to do this and still keep everything like my previous docs
by mounting the current partitions? from fc6? then add packages as I need
them afterwords? how do I enable ssh on that system. SSh is what I use all
the time to talk to the system.

Slow Fedora 7 downloads ? - do you already have an F7test iso ?
by Development discussions related to Fedora
To those struggling to get the Fedora 7 dvd iso image downloaded:
If you have previously downloaded Fedora 7 Test4 or earlier, you might
find my program announced in fedora-test-list very helpful.
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2007-June/msg00018.html
The program allows you to specify an iso you are trying to download {aka
Fedora 7 dvd}, and then provide the local location of the earlier test
iso {mounted}, or the actual DVD {mounted}. It then uses the iso table
of contents / directory structure gained using iso-info {from libcdio}
to insert the files from your local media into the iso image you are
downloading.
Because it is an initial proof-of-concept release, it might be a good
idea to make a copy of your .iso file first in case something goes wrong
{which I have not seen - but is likely once the "real world" starts
using it}.
Anyway, the program is command line only at this stage, and help is
provided in the text of the python program. Note that for bittorrent {I
use azureus}, you need to "Force Recheck", after you restart azureus,
but before you restart the torrent !
Let me know if it does or does not work, for you, and I'll try to help out.

F7 Install Problem (Installation DVD Not Recognized After Boot)
by Browder, Tom
I'm having the same problem as Frode Petersen had with FC 6. See May
2007 list thread:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2007-May/msg00430.html
I was able to install FC 6 OK, but I have had the DVD not recognized
(after a successful boot) in both F7 test 4 and now the real F7. (My
bad that I didn't report it, but I figured surely someone else would
have the same problem.)
As near as I can tell in the thread, no one had a solution except to try
another DVD device or maybe a new mobo.
Frode's last msg had a complicated test he was going to try, but his
first thesis (that I agree with) is that a DVD that boots Ok should be
able to be used for the rest of the installation!
The exact sequence of events for me is:
Boot the DVD for a graphical install/upgrade
select:
"English"
"US"
"Local CDROM" # shouldn't that now say CD/DVD? or one selection for
each?
then the response:
Unable to find any devices of the type
needed for this installation type.
Would you like to manually select your
driver or use a driver disk?
Selecting "select driver" gives a LONG list that I've selected all and
found none that work. The system eventually gives a failure and reboot.
My mobo is an old Gigabyte Dual Athlon with USB 1 and all IDE devices.
I'll be happy to do some more detailed logging if anyone can suggest
something meaningful to try.
Thanks for any help.
-Tom
P.S. I'm now going home and try F7 on my new home system, currently
running FC 6.

F7 torrents
by Mark Haney
I'm noticing on torrent.fedoraproject.org that there's an i386 torrent
that's 2.8GB, but it doesn't say if it's DVD or CD versions. Am I
missing something?

confused on downloads
by Jack Wallen
so i tried to get F7 today but i'm a bit confused. i go to the mirror
and navigate to:
/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/releases/7
then i find:
Everything
Fedora
Live
i assume the isos are in Fedora so i go there. i see:
i386
ppc
source
x86_64
i assume i've found it. so i go to i386 and see:
iso
os
viola! not so fast. inside of the iso folder is:
F-7-i386-rescuecd.iso
SHA1SUM
i obviously don't want the rescue cd. so i back out and go to
/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/releases/7 and then to
/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/releases/7/Everything/i386/os/Fedora
nope not it either. so instead i go to
/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/releases/7/Live/i386 which looks
promising but still it's a live cd.
this has become very confusing. if i want to download the isos for F7
where do i go? i don't use torrent so that's no use to me.
i'm sorry but if the Fedora project is hoping to get new users with F7
this is not the way to do it. a link on the main page to Get Fedora
should be very simple to understand. and i'm not a new user...
what gives with this?

Sprint Novatel Ovation U720 USB phone very slow on Fedora
by Arch Willingham
I am trying to install a Sprint Mobile Broadband USB Modem (Novatel Ovation U720) cellular USB phone on a Dell laptop running FC7 test4. I found a variety of instructions on getting it to work with FC6 and applied it to my install and it works..sort of.
I have the laptop set to dual boot with XP. I first made sure it worked under XP. It does and it extremely fast. I then did the install on FC7. After issuing "/sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0×1410 product=0×2110". Once that was done, the modem appeared as /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1 (someone said they think the latter is a management and diagnostic interface; the former is used for the PPP connection). I was then able to use KPPP to set up a dialer connection. I started the dialer and bam it connected. Once connected I see this:
# ifconfig
lo Link encap:Local Loopback

collisions:0 txqueuelen:3
RX bytes:3681723 (3.5 MiB) TX bytes:532348 (519.8 KiB)
The only problem is that it is slow as glue. When I click on a website, it takes 30 to 90 seconds to respond. Once it actually starts pulling data, it seems a little quicker but then bogs down when trying to go to the next website. I manually changed the "serial" bit rate in the configuration files to the same way it was set in XP (230400 bps) but that did not help.
In XP, the IP is set as follows:
Connected to NDIS:

Does anyone have any ideas?
