One thing this does though is prove that hardware is not only malicious, but sentient and aware of what is going on: My system disk picked Friday to die so hard that the BIOS hangs during POST attempting to identify it as a disk. Naturally, the weekend I need to restore things on a new disk, is the weekend the fedora infrastructure is shot and livna doesn't have nvidia drivers built :-). All I wanted to do for now was "yum erase" some things after the initial install, but it can't even do an erase without valid metadata which it can't download (I'm guessing it will work if I disable all the repos first :-). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
