View 5 RepliesI wanted to try Fedora 12 Live/KDE on a newly-bought Fujitsu Esprimo P1500. Booting with no kernel options would just freeze the machine. After some random experimentation, I added the option "nolapic" and got a seemingly working machine. However, only seemingly, as it turned out that only one of the processor cores was working (the processor is a "Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E5300").

Only I can't install CentOS 5.5 due to an Anaconda exception at the very end of the initial setup process, right before it's supposed to start copying the files.Is it true that CentOS/RHEL requires an i686 compatible processor? As far as I know the Geode LX is only i586 and Redhat's system requirements only list x86 as necessary.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI would like to install Fedora 12, but like F10 and F11 I can't run the lived CD. No video. I have a Biostar board w/ Nvidia GeForce 7100.
I have tried to add nomodeset and vga=vesa to the end of the boot command and neither of them could get the video to work.
Does anyone know another command that can get the live CD to work?
I have run Arch, Mandriva, Debian, & Ubuntu on this PC and they all can read the video. Why would it be a problem for Fedora?
I have just installed fedora12 from the Live CD couldn't get my mobile broadband to work on the Live CD, thought I would go ahead and install anyway and hoped for more success from the installation.
But nothing seems to work. I have tried just plugging it in and waiting for it to be registered, I have tried various manual set ups including enabling point to point encryption in the VPN manager and nothing seems to work at all.
The device is a Huawei K3520 USB modem.
Am I just doing something really stupid or is there some obscure method to get this working.
This is the only internet connection which i have available at the moment so anything I download will have to be done through Windows and copied across, i.e. I can't use YUM.
lsusb returns the following:
Not sure where the E620 comes from the model number on the case is k3520
i have installed ubuntu in my laptop.since i have AMD processor fedora doesnt support AMD processor..the recent version fedora 12 supprots AMD processor.i am doing my final project in ns2 hence it should support tht too!!! Which is the best choice to override ubuntu grub fedora 12 or redhat linux.

However, he realized that he accidentally downloaded the Intel version of Ubuntu, but he has an AMD processor. Does this matter for a Live session if he's not actually installing anything?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm currently using FC 9 - 2.6.27 x86_64. (In my Hp - nx6320 laptop with- Intel centrino Duo processor). I have downloaded linux-2.6.30.2. How do I install this with i386/i686 configuration set. All that I want is a 32 bit - linux-2.6.30, because NCTUns 5.0 works only with the 32-bit kernel. I have tried following:
Code:
make ARCH=i386 menuconfig
After this, I see the architecture set to "X86_32 = Y" in the .config file. But later, after I run
Code:
make bzImage
The configuration restarts asking to select Y/N for various packages and modules. I have no much idea on what to select and what not to, in order to retain X86_32 set. I end up with the new .config file with contents as below after the make bzImage command.
Code:
#X86_32 is not set
X86_64 = y
Again it is going to be built as a X86_64 bit kernel.
How to install the kernel as 32-bit along with the existing FC-9 64 bit kernel.
I am running Fedora 13 in VMWare. I tried doing a software update and I get this error message when tring to install the updated kernel:
Test Transaction Errors: installing package kernel-PAE-2.6.33.6-147.fc13.i686 needs 6MB on the /boot filesystem
how to increase the memory space required for installation.
it's the installation media or the ISO is broken because i have reburned / redownloaded the fedora14 multiple times with the same result. I even tried burning the disc on a different computer just to make sure the burner is still working. This is the error i am getting when the "Starting installation Process" dialog displayed.
"The file upstart-sysvint.0.65.9.fc14.i686.rpm cannot be opened. This is due to a missing file, a corrupt package or corrupt media. Please verify your installation source" I remember fedora 13 and below i have to use nousb command or something similar to get fedora installed properly but not for fedora 14. It just pops up with the message above.
i tried running (yum update, also yum install vlc) and i get these error
Code:

"An unrecoverable processor error has been encountered.The virtual machine will reset now."
I can't get the Ubuntu 10.4 Live CD for PPC to work on my old 800 MHz flat screen iMac G4. I believe it's supposed to work, but the installation dies with a magenta screen about a minute after selection of any boot option in the yaboot dialog.I tried all the sensible boot choices and options, all with the same result: some trundling of the CD reader, display of the messages related to the ramdisk, more trundling, then a blank magenta screen and no more trundling. The iMac becomes totally unresponsive: no more messages, can't enter any command shell. I get the impression (complicated story) that it begins to install the X server and then aborts.
This iMac has a PPC G4, 512 MB of working memory, and a GeForce2 MX video card with an nVIDIA chipset and 32 MB of video memory. There seems to be no hardware problem: OS-X 10.3 and OS-9 run just fine including wireless networking.
I am using suse for a long time but I did not yet experience this strange error:
I installed 11.2 and now 11.3RC1 on a new HW: ASUS M4N72-E with AMD Phenom2 X4 965, 8GB Memory, standard settings.
I experienced unusual errors when copying large files to the new system with scp/ssh (connection broken).
Even stranger I could not read .tgz files created on the older machine, same OS 11.2, but MB ASUS M2N32-SLI with AMD Phenom X4 9850
Testing further reveals that if I create a .gz file from the same source it produces every time a different output:

I never saw something like it, I guess it must be something with the underlying library not working on the new processor. I tried with slower memory speed, newest BIOS etc ...always the same errors. Other wise the system works absolutely stable.
When I compare the generated files with one created on the older system it looks like there are single bits missing in a random number of bites.

i have F12 with kernel 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686.PAE. But i just have 2gb ram, so im not really needing to use a PAE kernel. So i was thinking on change my kernel to a 2.6.32 generic, but the fact is that im not sure if i can do that, and i could, how??
