QUESTION #1 -> How do I uninstall Fedora Core 4 from this machine so I no longer have to use GRUB and select Windows XP everytime I boot up?

You could just configure Grub to boot XP by default after a very short time-out - then you won't have to select XP. Otherwise, if you repair your Windows installation, I _think_ it will repair the MBR with the Windows boot loader.

This is where my next problem came. I ran 'irw' as per documented to see if I could get any commands to display. IRW executed and dropped a line down, but then did nothing. It appeared to be frozen. I hit CONTROL+C to cancel, and it dropped another line before displaying the prompt. I opened up /var/log/messages and saw that the port was closed as soon as I ran IRW. I thought it might have been something wrong with access rights, but I did all the appropriate steps (chmod or whatever it is).
QUESTION #2 -> What am I doing wrong?  What am I missing?

Do you have lircd running when you run irw? I seem to recall that I came across a similar problem, and it turned out that I have lircd running when I shouldn't have had. I also had a weird thing where irw would work on the local console, but not over SSH.


This was all done Wednesday night, Thursday morning. It is now Sunday Night. I have installed, formated installed, reinstalled, repartitioned, and begged the chat room for help but nobody seems to know anything about my problem. So my last ditch effort is here on the mailing list. If nobody else can help me, I'll have to give up completely and probably got with Winblows MCE :( :( :(

There a many people here you have spent a *lot* longer than a few days to get their Myth boxes running. If you want a system that is easily set-up and requires low maintenance, and you can live without the added functionality in Myth, then MCE might be the appropriate choice for you.

Cheers,

Jon
