OK, sez I, let's give it a shot. While the resultant CD passed both Brasero's verification procedure and Fedora's on-disk verification, it is the slowest live CD I've ever used -- it took 9 minutes to do the verification and then boot to the desktop. Even then, it was way too slow -- as in 14 seconds to open Konsole. The logs were loaded with avc denials; nothing about hardware problems. Odd, since F10 runs quite nicely on this box. I also downloaded the DVD and I'll install it on a spare partition this weekend. -- cmg -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
