Hi List
Following the sdvise of some of the people responding to my question, I
went and bought a normal IDE disk to install FC2.
I'm glad to report that I am now the prowd owner of a working FC2 on
AMD_64 platform.
I think I should also shower the developers and all involved with this
release with compliments! Well done, really, this ios the best I've ever
seen Linux! I am most impressed with the way the look and feel of the
gui has improved. The fonts are crisp and neat and I have still to find
ANY problems with regards to compatibility with MS Office docs.
It looks to me that my problems were almost 100% due to problems with
SATA disk/controllers, so I'm wondering what I can do to make my system
run off the SATA disk completely.
I have an MSI K8TNEO MoBo with the VIA VT8327 SATA controller ( which
FC2 correctly detected during install).
Are there any patches/updated drivers I can load in order to get my
installation working on my MAXTOR 120GB ( 6Y120MO)?
I've also just noticed that when I try to use gFTP to ftp to or from my
other box, it immediately crashes and exits without transferring
anything. I can however ftp from command line.
Thanks for any help.
Again, great work on this release, I LOVE IT!!!
