I had to let you know how I passed a night of no sleep to install Fedora13.
My Configuration. disk hd0, XP on 1st half, Fedora12 on second. Disk hd1 W7 on 1st half, storage (fat32) on second half CPU memory 4 gigs, ATI video card, and Intel e7300 dual core cpu. DVD Burner, etc. I decided to wipe clean the F12 installation, or shall we say that the last set of updates prior to Fedora 13 decided that for me --- Gnome errors gallore, making F13 installation imperative Try 1 I used wgetc -c link to F13-64bit to download. I burned the DVD and in bootking from the DVD, the disk check utility indicated an error. -- Scrap the DVD and the downloaded file. Try2, Same as Try1, except that it was a new wgetc -c and a new burned DVD. Again errors reported. Try 3, Forget Wgetc as the F13 image on the host must probably be damaged. I used bit-torrent to download and burn the DVD. The DVD passed the test, no errors. Step 2 (start the installlation, tell Anaconda to reuse the linux space on hd0, I asked for customize now, selected what I wanted, and also chose to include two repros update fedora64 and Fedora64 (not the exact names). I started at 10pm, it was now 1am, and there were 2500 or so files to install. I went away after it started, and when I returned at 2am, it had crashed with a "Unable to install Samba" error. Step 3, restart, select graphics mode only, select customize later, and did not include the extra repros. Result, Anaconda missed including the XP system on hd0, but pointed to HD1 and the W7 system. Back to modify grub.conf to match the F12 values. At this time, it was 4am in the morning, I shutdown to catch some sleep and left for work at 8:30am. Fedora13 is installed, but incomplete for my needs. Today I catch up. Leslie PS total time 6 hrs, from 10 pm to 4am.
