Eric,
I had K12LTSP 4.1.1 (FC2 based) working on my AMD Athlon, but there's
something screwy with 4.2. Just as some high level troubleshooting, I
thought I'd try FC3 on the same box and it loads without problems.
It has trouble pulling dhcp and it locks up at the NTP server query at
boot, but didn't get too much more detail than that. Interested in
hearing if others encounter similar problems. If so, I'd very much
appreciate a copy of your post to my personal email address as well,
thanks all.
Miss my java and flash plugin wizards, can I get them for FC3?
Cheers and Happy New Years,
Brian
