Does iptables get installed automatically during installation of F13 or is it a manual option to have it installed during installation?Why do I ask because I had a friend install F13 for me on my new machine in the states.After some hair pulling when I couldn't get connected via port 80 I learned that iptables was "blocking" the port.

I am trying to install 2 or 3 versions of linux on my hardisk of 500GB capacity. The configuration of my machine is Intel Dual Core, 4 GB Ram, 3.0 Processor Windows XP is not installed on this. I tried to use a tool called GParted but was unable to use as it was not able to bring up the XServer So I booted the machine with fedora14 installation CD and chose "Custom Layout" After reading about the partitions needed by Fedora I created 3 partitions in /dev/sda /dev/sda1 the boot of 500MB formated as ext4 /dev/sda2 the swap of 6096MB formatted as swap /dev/sda3 / size 150GB formatted as ext4
The installation went well and fc14 runs well on this. However when I went to install the other linux version ....the installer was not able to recognize the unallocated space of nearly 350 GB on the hard disk.....So I am not able to create new partitions and then install the new linux on the newer partition. As a result I am unable to make use of the remaining space on the HDisk. I think I should have created /dev/sda4 /dev/sda5 etc when I installed fc14 itself....
I'm running off the most current kernel for Fedora 11 x64 and all packages are upgraded. I didn't hit the suspend button at any time but it went down to disk (black screen, soft yellow power light) and the lid had to be opened again for things to work properly.

I need to enable the statistic module in iptables.
I had Fedora 13 32 bits, iptables-1.4.7-2 and kernel 2.6.18
But kernel 2.6.18 does not support statistic module.
So, I upgraded from Fedora 13 to Fedora 14.
Now I have Fedora release 14 (Laughlin) and Kernel 2.6.18
I did this to upgrade: url
Also, I did this too.
# yum update kernel

How can I ugrade to newer kernel?
I want to install Fedora 12 on lots (>100) machines with the same system. These system is a little special:
Each has 4G to 12G memory, but no HD. So we need to install system into memory.
We want to:
1) Automatically installation through network: just power on the machines, all the machines install Fedora 12 OS into memory automatically.
2) We don't want lots network I/O after the installation finishes (it's better the whole OS is in memory). The installation may done through mounting a ISO through network.
I selected the option to have my second hard drive automatically mounted during installation, and now I would like to undo that.

sdb Fedora 14
There is a problem (I can see) with F14 install.
In the past the grub was installed during install (since Fedora 6).
Now choosing an install disk "sdb" (install target
drive) requests a drive to be chosen for
bootloader, but if the alternate drive sda is
chosen (this case the XP drive), it is formatted.
I have gone though install many times to see what I missed.
This once worked beautifully. What did I miss?
I now have XP and Fedora 14 installed but I cannot reach Fedora 14.
I had to do a fixmbr to get to XP
Since I cannot reach F14, I cannot get to grub2 and have to use .97
I have a problem with running Apache web server. I think my problem is either I can not get httpd to load automatically or it's being blocked from external unless I'm logged in, don't know which. Or, I'm completely off base. Either way, being logged in solves the problem. Now I just need to fix it. This is a brand new server running latest apache and fedora 10 (all fully patched). Loaded from source to all default (non RPM directories - apache is /usr/local/apache2/... )
I modified the existing /etc/init.d/httpd script and had it point to the /usr/local/apache2 areas.I even did a chkconfig --add httpd and show it is on for run levels 2345.The problem is that when I reboot the server httpd does not load because I can not access the website.However, the minute I login to the server as a user (non-root) it automatically loads httpd and the website works.Then, when I logout, everything is inaccessible again. I even tried to put the commands in the /etc/rc.local script (or wherever it is).Same thing happens.I know this is a simple fix. Just don't know what it is. Is it related to SElinux? However, wouldn't SElinux create access problems regardless of being logged in or not? Once I'm logged in, everything automatically fixes itself (either it's a service load or a rights filter fix).
Remember, everything works perfectly as long as I'm logged in to the server (even as a non-root user). Just the act of logging in makes the web server accessible from to the rest of the world. However, when I logout, the web server is inaccessible.
I updated Fedora 14 with the new kernel-2.6.35.12-88.fc14.i686 but when I reboot its rebooting automatically after showing the bios. What can I do now.

I have 4 HD. Primary drive has Windows Vista, Secondary no OS installed. Sata1 HD Ubuntu 10.04, Sata2 Windows 7. Prior to installing windows 7 all was perfect but once I did it, grub got all screwed up. The only way I can boot into grub is if I manually select my Sata1 which has Ubuntu on it and only then it allows me to select Linux or Windows OS. How can I change that so it can boot up normally as before? I'm assuming that grub was installed in the primary drive which has vista on it, but once I installed windows 7 it got deleted and when I tried reinstalling Ubuntu, the grub was not installed in the primary drive.
I have 6GB of RAM and I'm planning to install Fedora 14 32-bit to achieve a higher degree of compatibility. Does fedora automatically download and install a PAE enabled kernel when it detects more than 4GB of RAM (Just like Ubuntu)?

View 11 Replies View Relatedbuilding an install cd or dvd media that will automatically install the Linux software on a client pc. There is no network connectivity so the client can only be loaded with Linux from CD or DVD media. The crux of the matter is that I can not automatically install the Linux software on client WITHOUT typing linux ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg at the boot prompt.
I want to avoid any user prompts and just have the software install with the RPMS that I need for this client pc at the boot prompt. Actually, when the boot prompt commences, I would like the software install to start with no user intervention. I've tried several different methods in isolinux.cfg, but the OS always wants boot prompt for the cdrom. Can the boot prompt information be read automatically from the isolinux.cfg with out user intervention? I'm looking for the same behavior as a LIVE CD that kicks off with no boot prompts after a few seconds. Here's a copy of my isolinux.cfg

this happened after i modified the yum.repo.d files for installing softwares from DVD... i edited the files back to original.. i've triple checked my repo files and they are correct...
is there anywhere else YUM has files for handling updates and software installations? like yum.repo.d? some config file of some sort?

I tried upgrading to my linux to fedora 12 through updates and that completely screwed up my computer. Next I burned a disc with F12 and tried to a clean install but the installer stops after 823 packages. I tried an older FC9 image and that does not go through either. Now I'm stuck , I cannot get to my windows because I cannot get to GRUB . Is there a way to just install GRUB and boot into windows. I see that GRUB is around package # 600 or so in the installation and it does get upto that point.I just need it to finish instead of barfing on packages (no skip option in linux installer how clever!)

I have a CD with the Fedora 14 ISO burned. It doesn't appear to have perl installed on it. (Open a terminal, type "perl" and press Enter, and get the "Command not found." response.)Further, once I install to the hard drive and boot from it, run the updates and let them complete, and reboot, I still don't seem to have perl and I can't find a package for fc14 that would install perl.I must be the only one having this problem because I don't see any references to this and somebody would have noticed by now, but is there anyone who can tell me what I might have done wrong?

It's a pretty old laptop (P3, 256MB ram). So, is PAE kernel ok for me or should I reinstall from scratch and use some specific switches in the installer to get non-PAE kernel? I've also read that Yum doesn't recognize PAE packages dependencies and will install non-PAE kernel modules if I try to install let's say Nvidia driver or so.

After rebooting, I get thrown into grub command prompt, and have no idea what to do there.

On booting, I got a bar across the foot of the screen (shades of blue, which then changed to white with Fedora 11 on RHS); then waited ... no change, no keyboard or mouse response.

Then installed Fedora 9 and it booted OK; using Admin/Display showed a default CRT and XGI Volari Z7 video card.
I installed LinuxMint to an external hard drive and had vista on my interal drive. After doing this, the only way my computer would boot up was if I had the external drive plugged inThen I accidentaly dropped my external drive and broke it. I decided to just install Fedora 11 onto my internal drive primarily because I figured it would would still be able to choose windows from the grub screen, but now there is no option for windows in grub. My other problem is that Fedora wont recognize any liveCDs that have tried to run from other distros (eg. LinuxMint7, Open SUSE)
View 3 Replies View RelatedPrefactory note - I've also posted this question on the Ubuntu forum, but so far no solutions have been provided.
My system has several hard drives. The important ones are these:
Sata 1 - Fedora 12
Sata 3 - Windows 7
Slave 1 - Storage
Sata 1 was NOT installed with grub. When I switch OSs, I do it by rebooting and choosing the other drive as primary.
I downloaded an ISO of Ubuntu 9.10 (64 bit) and burned the DVD of it. I backed up Slave 1 and then booted off the Ubuntu DVD. I clicked on "Install Ubuntu", selected Slave 1, and installed onto it.
Subsequently I rebooted the machine, going into the BIOS to boot off Sata 1, so I could get my Fedora Firefox settings to replicate them under Ubuntu.
Instead of Fedora 12 booting, Grub 1.97 came up. It had 5 choices, Ubuntu, Ubuntu Repair, Memtest, some other Memtest, and Windows 7.
Subsequently I tried cracking the box and physically disconnecting Slave 1. When I rebooted Sata 1, it crashed to a grub command line. Apparently when Ubuntu installed, it infected Sata 1 with grub, even though it installed the rest of Ubuntu on Slave 1.
I really, really, REALLY need to get access to the Fedora 12 drive. It's got my work on it.
how I can get grub out of Sata 1 and regain access, or maybe reconfigure it so it recognizes the existence of Sata 1? Personally, I don't want it there; that's why I never installed it in the first place.
when i would install other distros it would only take up maybe 10 gigs or 5 gigs or 2 gigs of hard disk space when i installed fedora the other day i went to the home folder and it said only 90 gigs available and the file system folder says only 46 gig available are there any packages or software i can remove to free up or remove to free up hard disk space? as i have this on a netbook not that im gonna be downloading huge files ,or doing some heavy work on here i just want it to be lightweight and optimized for performance would rather remove what i did not need or use.
