Ironfighter Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 I am new to linux (4 months). I tried Fedora but have recently switched to Mandrake. I had gotten used to seeing ¨myname@localhost$" in a Fedora terminal window. I now get myname@(none)$. Have I missed something in the installation or is this OK?

Ironfighter Posted May 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Did you complete your hostname when completing the network setup? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I not really sure but Ive got a feeling I did something wrong at that stage. I noticed a line when the machine is loading linux that says "setting up host big - excup FAILED Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
