Is there a mirror somewhere where I can snag Fedora 18? It looks
like Fedora's download page is down.Server errorThe webpage at http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/18/Live/x86_64/Fedora-18-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso is currently

Not 100% sure about the final default filesystem. I'm still backing up my F17 hard drive before beginning the TC4 install on hardware. However, in earlier betas ext4 was still the default. I've heard there are other choices, but I can't tell you from my own knowledge quite yet. --Doc On Fri, 2013-01-11 at 22:38 -0600, Kevin Thomas wrote:I thought that someone said that RHEL would be based on Fedora 18, is that correct? How is 18 looking for those that have tried it? What is the default file system format?OK. I'm now installing from the final release F18 x86_64 DVD so I can answer your question. At the INSTALLATION DESTINATION screen, select the disk(s) you want F18 installed to and click on Done in the bottom right corner. The screen will gray out except for a white rectangle in the center titled INSTALLATION OPTIONS. Click on the [+] Partition scheme configuration. There you'll see a choice between Standard Partition, LVM, and btrfs "Partition types". Whichever one you choose, you still have the option to check "Let me customize the partitioning of the disks instead." Editorial comment: The new all-graphical anaconda is mostly black & white, and not particularly well laid out. Your gaze is not "led" smoothly around the various screens. It has very little visual appeal. Hopefully they'll hand those screens over to the graphic artists when RHEL7 branches. --Doc - To unsubscribe, send email to majordomo@silug.org with "unsubscribe silug-discuss" in the body. |
