- Unfazed, IBM pumps Power chip program.
- I hope I don’t become boozie (yes, watch One Tree Hill and you’ll understand that term). Ticked off and coffee tumbler became well, a tumbler.
- I kickstarted Fedora Marketing. Brain dump. Mailing list. Greg re-jigged Fedora LiveCD - lets try for something before FC-5.
- I can understand jwz’s switch. OS X is truly beautiful. And jbj promises RPM too. Sure I like Evolution for mail, but most of everything else simply just works on the Mac.
- Mac mini for Fedora Core 4 warning - you need to use linux video=ofonly during bootup. Using radeon (the default) will blow up in your face. This also means, for the xorg.conf, you want to use “fbdev” rather than “radeon”. Everything else, the Installing Fedora Core on the Mac mini article still apply.
- Caught Hitch and The Pacifier. Both were actually quite hilarious.
- Inconsistency detected by ld.so: rtld.c: 1192: dl_main: Assertion `(void *) ph->p_vaddr == _rtld_local._dl_sysinfo_dso’ failed! - thats what I get when trying to run scratchbox. So no Maemo on FC-4 for me, yet.

Of course IBM is unfazed. Can we say “console”? And yes, OS X is teh hotness whether it’s PPC or x86.

Aye, we can all use PS3’s for Linux/PPC

The “video=ofonly” helps alot, but I’m still unable to install Fedora Core 4 on my new Mac Mini — I get errors concerning the partition table (something like “data does not span entire partition” and “attempt to read outside the …”). I’ve reformatted/repartitioned the hard drive 5 times so far (the first time was so that I could install FC4, or at least try to), but it seems that the Mac partitioning tool completely bolluxes up the partition table to a point where FC4 can’t deal with it.
Do you know if FC4 can be run off a USB connected hard drive? I purchased this mini planning to run Linux and OS X side by side, but it seems that, at least for now, they refuse to play nice.

FC-4 can’t run on a USB connected hard drive.
If you have partitioning issues, look at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=159047 for a solution.
Try and give your free partition a name in the OS X installer, as opposed to it being nameless.
