I had Tried to install FC2T2 and failed miserably
(Another failed install - both video and ide hard drives not detected -
posted 04-08-04)
This time EVERYTHING so far is beautiful!! Excellent job guys !!!

Previous attempt I had trouble with video
from anaconda on, and was forced to
use the i386 version to even get it to load.
This time the x86_64 went flawlessly and
I even have the NVIDIA accelerated drivers working
using the suggestion pointing to minion.de but had to put a
"modprobe nvidia" into the etc/rc.d/rc.local to get it to work.
WINE installed ok straight from new download.
NTFS turned on and recompiled the kernel fine and working.
I haven't gotten around to trying the SATA yet, I'm scared though
because the spell checker tries to re-name it SATAN ;-).
but so far I'm totally stoked (sorry the old surfer in me).
Overall clean and looking very good.

My hardware:
Brand new AMD 64 3000+ CPU
Brand new GigaByte K8n Pro MOBO
DDR330 512m RAM
older Ide hda 80G
new sata-150 120G
new ide hdb 133 160G

Again, great job guys it is obvious that you are all working
hard on this. If I could send you a virtual 6 pack, I would!!

If there is anything in particular someone wants me to testout,
let me know...
