Experience installing Fedora Core 4 Under Microsoft Virtual PC

1. Create a virtual PC with good enough RAM allocation to word in linux
2. Create the virtual hard disk for the linux VPC
3. Start VPC from the MS VPC window
- Either start from downloaded ISO, or
- Boot from a bootable media
4. Read the key shortcuts before you start instalation else you may be lost some where in between the installation, unable to come out of the VPC window
5. And the fedora installation crashed at end of the package selection.....

6. Started new session in text mode installation, chose basic personal computer package setting... Started the image copy at 10:03 PM
7. Its 12:51 and package installation still stuck at 78%
8. And finally after 4 hour ordeal the basic instalation is done.. but yet to do is the WLAN setup on fedora
9. Add Soundblaster 16 or Pro Sound Card using sndconfig
10. Selected the NAT configuration
11. installed KDE Separately (Since it was failing from the control panel)
12. Trying to create separate private virtual network for the virtual PC's with diffrent subnet address using the Microsft Loopback Adapters
13. Windows firewall screws the whole system... for which i had to struglle for whole of the day.

Five died for what cause?? Cause of no-reversal!!! or cause of stupidity ?

Is Google Map - Print screwed ?

For a past few days I have been noticing that the google maps does not print the maps properly in either of the print options, ie, from the Print on the map/page and, from Print of the FireFox Menu.

Earlier I used to get nicer maps on print, with complete route etc, but have lately been getting strange incomplete map images, which does not even show the complete route area. I'm not even thinking of highlighted/grayed route which used to be in the earlier prints.... It looks like WYSIWIG is no longer true for the Google Maps!!!

I have tried this on multiple systems with different settings... but this seems to be consistent, although wrong behaviuor.

Am I the only one getting this problem on FireFox .. Google seems to be supporting FireFox now???
