Hi there,
after a complete installation of FC4t3 I have the following observations:

I downloaded the DVD-iso and burne to a DVD-RW. No problem and media check resultet in PASS.

I optet for a manual partitioning as I wanted to keep the /home partition and only reinstall the OS. What I find cumbersome is that the system don't specify the which partition that used to be /boot, /home or /. The only clue is to the swap partition. Well the learning is to document the original size of each partition before reinstalling in order tell which is which.

Then, after first boot my system was named [truls@ host"-ip-address"]. However, after yum update and reboot this was back to normal [truls@localhost ~].

When checkin my network configuration I find that my wireless is configured as eth1 ethernet. It should have been eth1 wireless. I have to delete this device and recreate it as wireless to get access to the wireless variables.

All the OOo icons on the quick-start menue was replaced by a "?" after the yum update and I had to go to "properties" and set correct icons.

My setup is on a IBM TP T30 and so far everything works perfectly after above ajustments.

Regards,
Truls


    Hello,

Your observations are interesting because I installed FC4T3 on an IBM ThinkPad T-30 as well. The installation went well except for one thing: I do not seem able to be able to obtain any audio streaming and I am not able to download any music through LimeWire. In LimeWire, I continue to get the message that "it seems that there is no connection to the internet". This may be the same problem that I am having with audio streaming as well. I also have FC3 installed on another laptop and am able to do audio streaming and download music from the same sources. I am able to connect wirelessly through the internet, though. I am not sure if anyone else is having this problem nor do I know if I should report this problem in Bugzilla.

I found that, even though my network device showed active, I was still not connected to the internet. I solved this by doing a "deactivate" then "activate".
