Revision as of 23:18, 7 November 2010

Installation notes for Fedora 14 on my AMD Athlon64 X2 5000+. As usual, you can find more complete Howtos on the Net, so I won't repeat this here.

Download

Via one of the ftp mirrors. Burn to DVD, done.

Basic install

As with my previous installation, I did not do an update but a complete reinstall. I just scraped the FC13 installation, keeping the home-directories and manually installed software.

Installation worked nice, restore of the home-dirs and setup was more or less ok except for one BIG FAT BUG:

kmod-nvidia broken

See rpmfusion Bugzilla 1469, Fedora Bugzilla 623742, 624297, and 627720. The setup script seems to be broken preventing the nvidia kernel module from loading.

This is a mess and should not happen.
