As promised last night, I have continued the installation. Ezmlm has
successfully installed without errors, which confirms my hypothesis.
If I understood just a bit more myself about how the .spec files are
created during the build process and how to change them, I could go
in and modify them so that they would respond properly to the
identity of the machine's OS as fdr80. But simply by allowing it to
assume fdr60, the problems I was experiencing have been alleviated.
In the end, sad to say, I created my own problems by trying to be too
smart and knowledgeable.
Thanks again for everyone who did try to help. Hopefully, the saga of
my attempt in the archives will be of some use to those who follow.

Subject: Toaster on FC8
I am putting together a box for myself, rather than for my employer
this time. Because I wish to be able to use this box to also do
bittorrent downloads, and a few other things, I've decided to try
to build it as a Fedora Core 8 machine rather than CentOS. (It
doesn't hurt that CentOS wasn't able to accurately detect and deal
with the SATA RAID in the motherboard).
I picked up the FDR60 files from the website. I changed them to
reflect that this was FDR80.
Should I be concerned that each package builds - with that pretty
red and gold text - stating that the OS is CentOS 5?
I had an error with the build of the ezmlm package, so I have
carefully removed everything and I am starting again. Before I
start that process, I thought I'd ask, on the off chance that this
'misdiagnosis' of the OS might be responsible for the problem I ran
into, or may cause other issues.

I've tried again, and got the same error as previously. This time,
I was maintaining a script file of the entire process, so that I
could accurately report the error. Any insights or assistance would
be greatly appreciated.

I'll be honest enough to say: I already explained why I'm
installing FC8 instead of CentOS. I'd have preferred CentOS. It
wasn't my idea for CentOS not to be able to install on my hardware.
What I need is some guidance to getting this to work. Every other
package in the series has installed until ezlmn. I'm not installing
FC8_86_64. If there is no guidance you can offer me, where do I
look for help?

FC7 and 8 are not supported platforms yet.
The best bet would be to run on a supported platform, such as
CentOS 5.

I had the same issue when testing on Fedora 7 x86_64 on an Intel
Dual Core
Processor. I eventually switched to Fedora 7 x86; even with the
dual core
processor. It runs fast and smooth with no issues on
installation. (Also
understand that if you are using and not yet familiar with an
x86_64 distro,
you will get a workout. Be ready to search multiple list
archives.)
If you are having this issue on a Fedora 8 x86 machine, you may
want to
submit the problem to the linuxquestions.org list as well.
