Upgrade update

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

My original prediction, of course, was a month and 4 meetings. The President got the memo yesterday, had a short meeting with my boss, and sent me 4 different emails with questions and suggestions for possible changes. My boss is now trying to schedule a meeting for us to discuss options with 3-4 other people, from which we are to make more suggestions and meet again with the President. (Neither of these meetings is likely to happen until after next week’s “event”) So we’re still on target for that prediction.

I told you this wouldn’t be simple. 🙂

No, I didn’t give Red Hat another try. After that debacle I needed to actually accomplish something, so I started work on the Job Search…

    So today, the download site is finally working, and after getting the new drivers and even getting the updated kernel (2.4.18-24) for Red Hat 8.0, the network card still doesn’t work! All I get is a “device does not seem to be present” error whenever I try to start the network on eth0. The integrated…

  • The case of the mysterious tied-up telephone lines.

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    I only thought I was going to be researching those telephone company contracts today. I was partially right. I am dealing with both our telephone equipment vendor and the local telephone company, but not about the data T1, it’s the voice T1 that’s throwing fits. Monday we had a short period of time where no…
