In the past, with the HDA setup I know how drives would be allocated. Grouping them all into SD* raises some interesting questions. I am trying to get a handle on what is going on here. The machine in questions is a test only i386. I was thinking of next cloning the FC6 install I use on a day to day basis to replace the FC3T3 and then trying an upgrade to see how that goes. Now that CentOS5 is released (my wife has the new x86_64 platform) the existing installs are just residual data. I prefer to test on a machine that does not have any valuable data. I was thinking of loading debian too just for laughs. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
