Changing the default theme
by Manilal K M 05 Feb '06

05 Feb '06

Hello everybody, I don't know whether this query is an offtopic. However I need information regarding it. I have custom compiled the FC-4 and installed it sucessfully with the great help from anaconda-devel-list. Now I need to change the default theme clearlooks to "Simple". I edited the patch associated with redhat-artwork (redhat-artwork-0.121-clearlooks.patch) and the file "redhat-artwork-0.122/gtkrc1-skel" and changed them to "Simple". However I noticed NO change in the theme. After Logging in I still get the default Blucurve icons and Clearlooks theme. Kindly advice. regards Manilal

[PATCH] FC4 cannot load driver disk image on a disk partition
by Akinobu Mita 22 Nov '05

22 Nov '05

Hello, I tried to load driver disk image on a partition in USB storage device. (/dev/sda1:dd.img) But It failed. Steps to Reproduce: 1. create driver disk image (dd.img) 2. put dd.img on USB storage device partition (/dev/sda1) 3. start FC4 installer with "linux dd" 4. select driver disk source as /dev/sda1 and choose the file "dd.img" Actual results: anaconda went wrong stage. anaconda displays: ---| Insert Driver Disk |--- Insert your driver disk into /dev/sda and press "OK" to continue. Expected results: Successfully load from driver disk image. I think below patch fixes this problem. but it is untested. --- anaconda-10.3.0.7/loader2/driverdisk.c.orig 2005-07-27 18:25:13.000000000 +0900 +++ anaconda-10.3.0.7/loader2/driverdisk.c 2005-07-27 18:25:56.000000000 +0900 @@ -380,6 +380,7 @@ int loadDriverFromMedia(int class, modul break; } stage = DEV_LOAD; + break; } case DEV_INSERT: {

Re: Grub not getting installed
by fonteneau 31 Aug '05

Hi, I've get with the same problem one month ago. Have you make your own distro FC3 with Fedora updates or have you put first CD's RPM ? The problem was the same when i've tried to install the distro with FC3 CD directly with updated RPMs, but what is strange is that i've get the problem only on one server on not on others Vincent

Forcing a package to get installed
by Manilal K M 30 Aug '05

Hello all, I have built an rpm (nila-kbd) for incorporating malayalam keyboard layout in FC-4. But this package has a conflict with the file /usr/lib/iiim/le/unitle/MALAYALAM/data/inscript.data which belongs to another package(iiimf-le-unit). So when I tried to install it using rpm it give some conflict errors. If I use --force it will work, it will get installed. My actual pronlem is I have to integrate this package into anaconda, then how can I force this package to get installed through anaconda any thoughts ?? regards Manilal

I would like to konw if it's possible to just remove or disable the fully install process option just to have the upgrade option step. Thanks Vincent

Re: How to remove Welcome to Fedora message
by fonteneau 30 Aug '05

30 Aug '05

Hi, Just go in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/anaconda..../loader2/ and have a look in loader.c or cdinstall.c files. By the way names Fedora or Redhat are based on the product name you're going to write during the buildinstall step off the cd making. For example : ${BUILDINSTALL} \ --pkgorder ${PKGORDER_FILE} \ --version "your version number" \ --product "your product name" \ --release "your release number" \ --prodpath Fedora \ ${BASE}/i386 Sometimes the release needs to be string and numbers try this and see the .discinfo at the top of the CD Vincent

Re: anaconda language support removal
by fonteneau 30 Aug '05

30 Aug '05

Hi, It' s possible of course and i have to search a lot to find how to do. First you could have : dispatch.skipStep("languagesupport") line in your installclasses/myserver_installation.py file.Like this you're going to bypass the graphical language support screen during installation. Then go in language.py and modify as you want the lines like this : --- language.py 2004-06-08 20:52:15.000000000 +0200 +++ language.py.modif 2005-07-13 19:27:24.233931800 +0200 @@ -190,8 +190,10 @@ def __init__ (self): self.info = {} self.info["SUPPORTED"] = None - self.supported = [] - self.default = None + #self.supported = [] + self.supported = ['English (USA)'] + #self.default = None + self.default = 'English (USA)' self.allSupportedLangs = [] self.langInfoByName = {} Hope this could help you Vincent

Then, do whatever you did, but do it starting from the FC4 anaconda src.rpm instead of the development code. -- Matthew Miller mattdm(a)mattdm.org <http://www.mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>
