Well, we couldn’t move to our linux server, because it is broken…. I tried to install Fedora Core 5 on it, but I ran into numerous problems. For example, the stupid computer usually hangs at different stages of the BIOS, like “Verifying DMI Pool Data…” and “Updating ESCD…”. When it does boot into FC5, I can’t access the network card. Probably something to do with those PCI bus errors that I get at startup. I wish we could just buy a Dell server or something. Scabbing old, used PCs of people rarely seems to work. It gave the previous owner a lot of trouble (it was a really cheap machine), and when I got it, the video card was broken. I guess I will just salvage any good parts, and throw the computer away. So it looks like we’ll be on this windows box for a while longer.
Anyone got any PCs they don’t need anymore?
