That is what I tried before posting here. But that won't work. Mediaid is a number which is in file .discinfo which is hidden in the root of the dvd. I found the same and used it too. But still things don't seem to work. I have messed up with repos so much now that yum and pirut don't seem to...

I have installed Fedora 7 from Digit July 07 dvd. I want to install some more packages now. I don't want to use my expensive broadband connection to download packages which I already have on that DVD. Even the versions are also same on the net. I managed to add one repo in /etc/yum.repos.d to...

Thanks for the support, but none of the passwords worked! I've never opened any laptop, is there any resource to know how to disassemble it without breaking any pins inside (if any)? Please let me know.

Where to get that hardware tool? Cost? Reliability? Sony people say that I'll have to send the machine to them by courier and they'll solve the problem and may charge upto Rs.3000/- !!!!

Come on man... How will I get to the CMOS battery? That's the real problem. Removing the main power battery is like switching off the machine. That won't work. Simply.
