i have jus installed FC3 on my friends comp. however there are a few small problems
1. on the GRUB boot menu there are 3 entries.... something like
1.fedora core 3 smp( ....some nos)
2.fedora core 3-up( ... some nos)
3.windows XP
GRUB is installed to the MBR.
wat are the two entries for linux??? how can i remove one of them?? is there some error in installation??
2. when linux loads up "smartd" service fails to load. what does this service do?? how to rectify it??
3. the soundcard is not detected. does this have anything to do with the smartd service??
my friends comp config is:
P4 2.8 Ghz Intel 915G chipset
Aopen motherboard,512 MB RAM, 40 GB HDD
Please help as he wants to remove linux saying it is only trouble....that after i convinced him it was as good as windows.
