To get started with QuakeSim2, I first tried to install linux; but it turned out that things just don't go smoothly.
Firstly the partition magic software failed while I tried to merge f:\ driver to e:\ to set up space for linux, and the result was just as bad as getting f:\ lost. I tried to recover some files with easy recovery, and fortunately Qi told me that there has been nothing important under that drive.
Then the dvd-rom turned out unable to read the borrowed fedora disk.
So one thing led to another, I ended up installing fedora from iso image on vmware.
The operating system course is heavy, but I get a chance to get familiar with linux and svn from the experience with the assignments. So things should be easier after this first step.
Another problem is that I always get this "301 Moved" Error from svn when trying to check out the codes from source forge, either with the svn clinet on the servers of the cs department, or on the newly installed fedora, or in the windows environment. I did some search about this, and it seems that there might be some problems with the configuration of the server. I will talk to Malon about this.
God bless us all, and God bless QuakeSim.
