[ldm-users] Weather.admin.niu.edu down...and looking for ideas.

[Chris Gidley]

Hey Gilbert,

Can you give any more info on how you installed Fedora? For example, are 
you running the install off media (CD) or alternate means? What 
installation type are you using? I'm assuming since it's a new machine, 
you directly installed Fedora 7, as opposed to upgrading from any 
previous versions, correct? etc.

I believe the problem is with how you installed Fedora 7, which is a 
common problem, as opposed to hardware related issues.

Thanks,
Chris
