Last night i installed FEDORA core on my computer. I got the fedora dvd from "red hat linux for dummies book". It was cheap and i needed a version of linux quickly so i bought the book. It was copywrited in 2004 and says the version is fedora cored 1. How outdated is that? And i ran into a problem and could not log on to my name. It SAID you may be signed on on another computer which i am not. And the message BUS falied to do what ever it does. IDK!
What the *censored* is going on?That book is shite. I've got it as well. I wouldn't worry about it being outdated, if you want a good version of Linux, go for Linux Ubuntu as soon as you finished the book.

If you can't log in, just reinstall...
Fedora Core 7 is getting ready to come out in a week or so. That's how old what you got is. I'm PARTIAL to my BackTrack/whax/whoppix live CDS..... but can't you just use the apt-get feature ( like slapt-get) in a r00t prompt to bring even that old of a version up to date?

Code: [Select]apt-get update
