most recomended distro
What distro would you recommend for the install to go the smoothest? I’m trying centOS now in my test environment and running into issues. Probably dependancies.

Damn!!
When you Nil were on vacation roberto and myself were exchanging some emails to include this manual in the wiki, but due to the amount of work I had I forgot about it :_(Sorry Roberto 🙁

In the tutorial some packages that I need to install are marked with an asterix, like
perl-XML-SAX* perl-Tie* perl-XML-Simple* perl-DateManip* perl-IO-Socket* perl-Time-modules* perl-NetAddr-IP* perl-GD* perl-DateTime* perl-ExtUtils*
Do I need to replace that with something, like my distro version or something? Just that alone did not work. (packages not found).
I got massive errors trying to compile the first perl module and its probably since I’m missing all of those. wish installing stuff in Linux was as easy as Windows. Guess in the end its worth it, since its stable and it works. 😛

Well… you have to copy and paste the yum command entirely, asterisks included.
Asterisks are very important because they tell YUM to download all the packets which begin with that name.
That command should work with every version of Fedora. I have tested it with FC6, F7 and F8.
Try to copy and paste and tell me if you have problems.That command is indispensable for unpack the CPAN modules!
I am waiting for your feedbacks…

Don’t worry.
I could be happy if someone else tells me it works!
I hope it could be added soon because I would like much more people could try Pandora!

Yeah I did not copy and paste as I could not with my environment (VM running in Windows) but copied it. Does capitalization matter with yum? that may have been my issue, just thought of that now.
I got the VM appliance to work though, but if we go with this then we’ll want to do a full install most likely so the tutorial will come in real handy for that.

Yes, I agree too. It’s case sensitive.
A trick: start your VM and, when it is up and running, use an ssh client to connect to your VM (Putty for example). It is easy copying and pasting in this way! -
