fedora core 3 (linux) installation: services [dhcp]
but besides the problem with the grub.conf setting that prevents the box from rebooting, the distro is very bulky and even the ascii/text based installer is slow to respond. even if you trim down the installation options as much as possible (without doing individual package selection), it still uses 600mb. you could probably squeeze it down even more if you actually sit and wait 10 to 15 minutes while the installer loads the individual package list so you can trim out the fat, but with so many other distros available that are better suited for the soekris, why bother? 【程序编程相关:linux核心源程序的文件组织】
setting up fedora core 3 on the soekris is relatively easy. unfortunately, the defaults for the grub.conf make it impossible to use after it reboots for the first time. by default, grub.conf has a splash image set which apparently causes the boot process to hang. i was able to rectify the problem by booting the soekris via nfs, mounting the fedora boot partition, modifying the /boot/grub/grub.conf file and simply comment out the offending line. that was all it took to fix it. but i still give this distro a big thumbs down for use with the soekris for that reason alone. 【推荐阅读:利用netconsole将linux的内】
my notes here are an attempt to condense all the information i have obtained so that people have a simple, single source of information that applies specifically to the soekris net4801. 【扩展信息:使用 Xen:使用虚拟 Linux 来测】
never the less, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, so ive gone ahead and documented the process in case someone is bent on running fc3 on their soekris. and if anyone knows a way to edit the grub.conf file before the installer reboots itself, e-mail me and let me know. otherwise i think this distro is a complete waste of time for use with the soekris. nfs booting it just to edit that single file is a huge pain in the neck and most people arent going to bother.
