Lab 1b - Download Fedora 15 and install on VirtualBox 4.0.8

[pierrepollo]

Hi mike, thx for your tutorials, very helpful...

I've installed F16 and tried to follow this tut... Went pretty well until trying to type the commands... there quite a lot of differents for the paths and ive been unable to locate the grub.conf for example....

Can you help me out for this part pls?

Or can i be cheeky and ask for a short fedora 16 tut? :)

Great Tutorial! =)

For me as someone, who hasn´t been in touch with Fedora yet, was this the perfect tutorial to learn some basics and how to install Fedora on a virtual machine.

Keep up the great work, thanks a lot :-)

wtf is Create new virtual machine?

[wetlinux]

@Micbuns1 In VirtualBox you can create a new virtual machine by clicking on "New" and that starts the Wizard for creating a new virtual machine. Cheers, Mike

[wetlinux]

@esterski1 Hi, In Fedora 15, lex is in /usr/bin. If it is not there, install it by typing sudo -c "yum install lex" and then give the root password. Thanks, Mike

OK, I've heard your comment about startx, so I use that to start my GUI. My question is, how can reverse what we did by changing boot to runlevel 3? I want it to boot up normally. Thanks!

[TubeScotts]

Whoa....hold on. Newbie here!!! After you say "thanks" this whole thing leaves me hanging. How do we start the program after we log in with our Login ID and Password. I just see a command line interface.

@TubeScotts Hi, The command line gives you direct access to running programs and modifying configuration files. Servers usually run in command line mode to avoid the overhead of a GUI. If you are used to Windows or MAC OS-X, the command line will seem a bit strange and you may be happier in a GUI. Cheers, Mike

@TubeScotts Don't do all the shit this guy does it's for just geeks. After the installation just finished you're good to go.

I am in a Unix class that allows you to access a virtual machine and within the virtual machine access a Linux OS (another virtual machine) for exercises. Process is ridiculously slow. Your tutorial has made my this learning experience so much easier. Thanks! I'll share with my classmates.
