Showing posts with the label upgrade

An unexpected surprise

I got a tablet pc (an LG XNote LT20) as a gift for graduation. That tablet is in very good shape and just need to upgrade both hard drive (40GB) and memory (512 MB). After doing research, it looks like the cost will be around CAD 200.00. I am planning to dual boot the system as I need Microsoft Windows for making Flash design along with Fedora 11. I would like to test tablet support on Fedora 11 as it turned out the screen uses Wacom technology. With that notebook, it appears design will be much easier.

Bad, bad preupgrade!!

Writing from Rawhide about my frustration on preupgrade when it comes for triple boot. I have Microsoft Windows XP (used for Flash development and games) on first HDD, Fedora 10 on second HDD on which Grub reside in MBR and the now upgraded Rawhide on third HDD where its grub is set at the beginning of its partition and preupgrade occured. Somehow, preupgrade also overwrite the first Grub it should not touch; it should only update the last grub from the third HDD. boot folder from the second HDD containing Fedora 10 is empty. How should I restore the boot folder from Fedora 10 now that kernel from Fedora 10 is good and practically linked with rawhide? See the image below I submitted a bug report and let hope that problem will be resolved as soon as possible.
