64bit Linux

I was installing FC3. I re-tried it and the thing fired up. It was the sdisk program that was seemingly causing the failure... only now it procedes past it.

I then spent the next 3 days loading the updates and rebooting on lockups as various updates did not like being installed. It was a bit frustrating.

This weekend, I'm going to see if I can get the webhosting to work.

I just installed FC4 test 3. There's still some issues, but I'm pleased overall. I decided to go with the Gnome GUI and like that, but I'm disappointed with alot of little things.

I'll eventually figure out why sendmail won't send mail from PHP. I'll eventually figure out why I can't get GD loaded with PHP. The worst thing about this is the lack of coherant instructions. Everything is so segmented that it's difficult to understand. It's also difficult to deal with re-compiling vs editing a registry setting or simply changing a config file.

I'm keeping this as my server and workhorse, but I'm already saving for the new XP system.
