I have a Samsung ML-1430 laser printer connected to my Fedora 12 box. I downloaded the appropriate Linux driver tar file from the Samsung website. After extracting the tar file into a directory called image, the following took place: [Downloads]# ./image/setup.sh This generates a "Linux Printer Package Setup" pop-up screen. The following error messages occur after I process the pop-up screen which specifies a default install path [/usr/local/linuxprinter] and asks me to check an "Install CUPS 1.1" box and a "Begin Install" box. Unable to find file 'cups/redhat/*.i386.rpm' Stopping cups: [ OK ] Starting cups: [ OK ] scheduler is running CUPS_BackEnd: get-printers failed: client-error-not-found CUPS_BackEnd: get-jobs failed: client-error-bad-request Warning: LPP_Init() failed!

I cloned a Fedora 12 hard drive to a new hard drive using Seagate DiscWizard. Everything appeared to go well. However the new hard drive will not boot. How do I make it bootable?

Yes, it mounts manually, but it's not as convenient. I'd still like to know why the DVD drive isn't automatically mounted and displayed when a disk is inserted as happens in F11. I'm pretty sure the problem has something to do with authorization via PolicyKit.

I just installed Fedora 12 from a DVD . The process completed without incident. I then inserted a DVD into my internal drive and nothing happened. I then logged out and logged in again as root, and tried again-same result; nothing! Could it have something to do with the new PolicyKit? I didn't have this problem with Fedora 11.
