Duli:
My previous two posts both unanswered has me wondering if I avoided something at sign in or my being 3 years away from 80 makes me a pariah

Seriously I love Fedora 12 but I have 3 pressing concerns.
1. How do I get yum on my desktop? I am installing programs by terminal and not having any luck with sound for my audacious audio. 2. I usually use alsa-mixer and obviously not available. What is?
3. I installed 12 to my secondary unit that only had one other partition and grub did not load to MBR.
I installed here first because my main unit is 8 partitions and did not want to get involved in recapturing. So is there a point in install where I can gain near absolute assurance that grub will load to MBR which is in XP.
Thank you so much for giving this old man your ear.
Have a great Sunday
