Linux Study Notes 4: fedora, five input methods, and default Operating System

****************

The disaster of installing Fedora

****************

I used Ubuntu a few days ago, so I modified fedora 11. I couldn't think of it. During the installation process, I should have pressed ignore. I accidentally pressed re-initialize the drive, then all the information on the hard disk is lost. I was so angry that I had to go to the computer Hospital and want to recover the data. I learned that it would take 180 oceans to recover the data, so I had to discard the data. Fortunately, there was a storage disk not long ago, the loss will not be too large.

File backup is very important !!

Set the default Operating System

***********

Fedora is a very domineering operating system. After Ubuntu is installed, you can select the operating system when the computer restarts. You can also see my original WINXP system. After the fedora is installed, the system will directly go to fedora after it is started. If you want to select the operating system you want to enter, you must press the up or down key at startup, and Fedora regards other systems as "other... ", it's really overbearing.

Because I usually use WINXP, and now I want XP as my default Operating System, what should I do?

After you find the information online, follow these steps to change the mo OS:

By default, the file is executed according to the/boot/GRUB/menu. lst settings. To set the default Operating System, you must change the File Settings.

 

Just in case, take the exam first,

Menu. lst
File:

Sudo
CP/boot/GRUB/menu. lst
/Boot/GRUB/menu. lst_backup
Then open

Menu. lst
File:

Sudo
Gedit
/Boot/GRUB/menu. lst
Find:



......



Default
=
0



......



Replace the following line:

Default
= 1

Save and exit



Recovery command:

Sudo
MV/boot/GRUB/menu. lst_backup
/Boot/GRUB/menu. lstx_sequence
The number of items in your operating system entries (from

0
Start computing,

"Other
Operating System"
And so on .) For example, my

Windows XP
Is

1
,

Fedora
Yes

0
Then I will

Default 0
Change

Default 1



After restart,

Other


Is the default startup Item.

 

 

(Note: This menu. lst can be modified only by superuser or root user. Therefore, you must use the root user to log on)

Add five in Fedora

***********

1. Because from Fedora
At the beginning of November 11, the input method platform has switched to ibus (previously scim). Therefore, by default, there is no five input methods. Download and install it on your own.

Yum install ibus-table-wubi-y

In this way, you can install it.
