Post Fedora Core 2 and LimeWIre test is successful

OK, I finished the FC2 project:

I took an old Dell box with a 80GB HD and 1.2 Ghz processor, 1GB of RAM and low level formatted the hard drive (yes, I do know what "low level formatting means, so don't ask if I "really did that")

I used a set of Fedora Core 2 CD's which I downloaded and burned some time ago to boot up and install to the machine as a single boot, Fedora Core 2 box.

I used the "minimum installation" option and selected KDE as the X GUI.

I went to the Sun web site and downloaded the Java Run Environment (JRE) package which is named: "J2SE v 1.4.2_08 JRE includes the JVM technology" from the Sun web site
( http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html )

I used the rpm installer to install the JRE and after installation I used a user terminal to do the check. Java installed correctly.

Then I went to the Limewire web site and downloaded the LimeWire free edition from
http://www.limewire.com/english/cont...loadfree.shtml

Using the rpm installer again, LimeWIre was installed.

I went to the desktop gui and looked for either in icon or a LimeWire command in the pop=up menu. I found LimeWire in the area labeled "Internet"

I clicked on that line and LimeWire's gui began on screen and opened the application.

I configured my personal preferences and immediately began downloading successfully.

I placed the CD with LimeWIrePro in it and installed using the rpm installer and it installed over the existing fre LimeWire.

LimeWIre Pro now works as well.

This test proves to me that the LimeWire installation for Fedora Core 3 with SELinux is hosed.

HTH
