Almost Easy

Following up on the Fedora 9 adventure I mentioned yesterday… In a leap of faith I went ahead and installed Fedora 9 Linux on my laptop last night, replacing Windows Vista (No need for a dual boot on this machine).

The installation went very smoothly. Surprisingly, Fedora correctly identified most of my hardware and installed the associated drivers.

The only thing it missed was the wireless network card. If I can find the correct Linux driver for this without spending too much time or effort on it, I’ll be happy. Otherwise, I will quickly lose interest in this project and use a different OS. (Very short attention span here).
