  1. Re:Upgrade path on Fedora Core 4 Available · · Score: 1

    What the heck are you smoking? The only RH/Fedora releases since 7.x that's I've done "fresh" are just when I wanted to frag the hard drive partitions...

    Upgrade installs with anaconda work fine, you click one button and go. Check the release notes for new things you might want to tweak afterwards and poke around for .rpmsaves if you really want to update customized config files for new things, but that's about it.

    Try *that* with windows...

    The don't "support" upgrades from beta test releases, and that makes perfect sense. Real release upgrades work fine.

  2. Re:I must be missing something on Review: SliMP3 · · Score: 1

    Right! I have one of those little book PC's, hooked up to the TV via S-video, S/PDIF out to the ampliefer, IR keyboard+mouse.

    All the mp3's from our cd collection are on a different machine reachable by any machine in the house (including this one) via NFS.

    I'm using "otto" for the jukebox now, but it could be any one of a number of similar projects. The roll-your-own ability of this is neat too.

    Plus, you get TV web-surfing with this kind of solution.
