There is one problem with the PCQ DVD. The magazine has labeled it PCQXtreme, which under linux (FC6) gets mounted under /media, as "PCQXtreme" with root-only privileges. Only, the quotes are included in the name, and the characters used for them are not the ones I have written above. They go something like \324 and \234 (or therebouts. Check .hal-mtab on the DVD). This creates a big problem when you try to replace the baseurl in /etc/yum/yum.repos.d/fedora-core.repo with the path to the RPMS folder on the DVD. I am trying to put the whole path to the DVD as mounted under the file:// url. Results to follow. Could you elaborate. Do you mean that yum won't work?
FC6 install went a bit slow but smoothly on my p-3, i810,256mb RAM. Installed Nvidia drivers from livna without yum. All this thanks to PCQuest DVD. regards, Ranjit. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([email protected]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
