up to now i used cedega from debian. worked ok but i
wanted to check another distro. so i downloaded a fedora
core 8 because it has a dvd so i could avoid downloading
most packages to install (you have such considerations when
you only have a slow 1 mbit link). what a piece of crap. i
install it, then the update says there's updates to do. and
of course, it fails. it first crashes and asks me to report
a bug, then does not crash but is unable to resolve
dependencies, then it seems to work but asks me a cdrom that
does not exist. i installed from dvd and it asks me for cd
number 1. i insert the install dvd, and it refuses to use
it. what the fuck ? so they currently distribute an
operating system install media which if you install in the
default setting without touching anything, is unable to
update, does not even recognize its install media and asks
for a disk you dont have. yeah, sure. well after 30 min
install and 10 minutes of crashes, error and stupid way of
working, i got rid of that crap. im gonna put the debian
back where it was, and aptitude update/upgrade and basta.
