Red Hat Linux upgrade bug hides Windows | |
|
||
| Time: 01:02 EST/06:02 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

Thanks Bruce. "Red Hat's newest hobbyist and developer version of Linux, Fedora Core 2, caused trouble for some who found they couldn't start Windows after installing the Linux upgrade side by side with it. The bug had cropped up in testing, but after Red Hat released Fedora Core 2 in May, many more users reported their systems no longer would boot Windows. No data on the Windows side was destroyed, and some manual hard drive reconfiguration fixed the problem " | ||

| So, this is affecting the two people on the planet that are installing Fedora side by side with Windows. Who cares? Next . . . |

Anybody installing dual-boot Windows/Linux ought to have enough knowledge to know how to setup a boot manager.
That being said, I guess I'm not surprised by this bug and the fact that Redhat shipped with it in this known state. |

| You people who insinuate that Redhat may have done this on purpose or have done it because they are sloppy need to re-think. Redhat has nothing to gain from pissed off users who can't access their windows installations, so why would they purposly leave that bug in? |

| OMG! MONOPOLY! Red Hat is using it's monopoly power to edge out the competition! They're a horrible money-grubbing corporation that feasts on the dead bodies of computer users! Down with Red Hat! |

Sorry we are just repeating the statements of you Linux zealots. If Microsoft had done it, you wouldn't be so kind. |

| Come on, guys, end this retarded contest!! You might get some more advertisers by artificially inflating your hits, but your hits were decreasing because the site was starting to suck. All of these stupid articles with Mr. Dee sure to post some completely pointless comment are just making it suck more!! |
