Possible Fedora Core 2 and WinXP problem …

Bug# 115980: Cannot boot to WinXP after installing Fedora Core 2.

For those of you who are interested in creating a dual-boot system running both Fedora Linux and Microsoft Windows XP should wait to ensure that the above problem has been fixed in the FC2 release before installing.

Some users of Fedora Core Test 3 have noted that they are unable to boot into their Windows partition after install, due to a problem that may be GRUB related.

Otherwise, the torrent for Fedora Core 2 (“tettnang”) is now available.

Step up to the plate …

Anyway, nothing can happen until you swing the bat.

Really, thats some of the best advice ever.

Quite often its far too easy to just stand up at home plate and let life throw pitches at you and not take a swing at it due to fear of action. Its easier, sometimes, to just take the strikes passively, not forcing yourself to take action and risk consequences, good or bad, by taking a swing.

But really, nothing can happen until you take that swing. Youre just standing there, letting lifes opportunities for change, growth and advancement fly right by you like a slow sinker.

Good or bad, youre no better off just standing there, because even if you swing and miss, youve got more chances to connect with that opportunity pitched towards you.

Thats what I need to do.

Step up to the plat and find the courage to take a swing.
