Hey folks, posting here because this is about an ill-fated Fedora Core 2 install on my spare linux partition. (see other post here in lounge).

I had a lot of problems with the installer and though I saw my friend run through an install it was on a RedHat server. Anyhow, with the freezes and such I decided to run top when I hit the desktop to see maybe if there was something zonking out and eating memory, whatever. Top shows 3 (THREE?) users. Methinks this bad?

I don't have a sw firewall configured. The anaconda installer is an ugly piece of work for the firewall config and I let it go with none and thought I could wait until later and use like guarddog to configure the iptables (not much success in installing pkgs on FC). I am behind a router. Any ideas of what I could try to see where top is getting such an idea? A lot of commands I am used to using are missing from that installation. Shoot, I am over my head with that distro. Thoughts?
