OK, I need to make x86_64 cdroms (I believe that my Linksys (tulip) NIC is not recognized in 64 bit mode). I read the x86_64 FC1 faq and it says I should run /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/splittree ... OK, but how? Can enyone provide a few more hints as to how to do this? I can see that I need to run pkgorder but have no clue as to what it expects?
I am not well versed in python and don't want to spend the time to learn it just so I can get the tree split and cdroms built.
If it comes down to it I suppose I can manually split the tree but I am hoping there is a quicker way.

At this point I had not gotten 64 bit FC to install ... only 32 bit and taroon.

ok i finally made it through the http install of fc1 64 bit.. realtek card works too...mozilla opens and then closes. ok ummm i had the realtek card installed and i made a boot cd from the boot.iso file at http://fedora.linux.duke.edu/fc1_x86_64/Fedora/ then when it asks where i want the files from i chose http then it automatically found my card. then i put fedora.linux.duke.edu on the first line and directory i put fc1_x86_64/Fedora and the install went smoothly from there.. i did have to tell it that i had a dell monitor for some reason.

Please see the mozilla piece on the faq (http://www.linuxtx.org/amd64faq.html) There are issues with the 64bit mozilla, they are being worked out in the background, but as you cannot run 32bit plugins in 64bit mozilla, FC1 should only ship with 32bit. On the preview both are installed, but the FAQ will point you to the fix to default to 32bit. As for monitor detection, this is a 64bit issue as a whole, and probably will not be fixed any time soon.
