Fedora Core 6 - CIFS Problems RESOLVED
This week the Fedora folks released A LOT of updates for Core 6. Among them was an updated kernel and thankfully, it addressed one of the problems I blogged about in this post.
I can now mount CIFS shares to a genuine mount point and access them via the GUI or the command line. This REALLY makes my day. Its now possible to transfer files to my home machine, update them and send em’ back. Hallelujah!
The annoying SATA startup probe hasn’t been resolved. I suppose I’ll suffer with this a while longer. I should probably take some initiative and register a bug report.
In other news, I finally know how to view the changelogs on a Fedora box. I should have read a little more on the rpm command, I might have known about it sooner…
Entering rpm -q kernel-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6 –changelog |less displayed the changelog for the current kernel. Seems the CIFS fix was implemented on November 9th.
