I was having a problem with running Red Hat in a virtual machine with VMware. The OS was reporting the platform as a “?86″. Which caused “wrong platform” errors with all the rpms. The fix was rather than choose the “Red Hat Linux” as the OS, choose the “Other – Kernel x.x.x”. This was on an AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000 with VMware Workstation 6.5.0 build 118166 with Red Hat Linux 5.2 (kernel 2.0.36). For this I choose the 2.2.x kernel option. Thought this might help someone along the way.
Why was I installing such an old version – I wanted to

Hunter’s All-Star T-ball team made it to sectionals this year. They all did a great job this season. He is signed up to start basketball in a few weeks and then soccer in the fall.
I just started practices for summer co-ed softball. Sooo hot out there, ha. We don’t start playing till around the 13th of July at HYBSA and then go through October. I believe our team name is going to be “backyard bruisers”. Not sure if that had anything to do with me and my dive-flips & bleeding knee at the first practice But after that and then hitting the ball up into the playground, they said I would play the hot corner and bat clean up. Not bad for only playing 2 seasons (9yrs ago) since playing in college. Made me Feel great and not so old!
Hunter is having another all-star tournament this weekend. It is the Sandlot Tournament. I believe we have a good shot at winning this one.
Why did Superfetch just freakout on me???
I noticed that my system had started slowing down a few days ago. Then it got to where the cpu was tied up so much that it took a couple of minutes to switch apps. So I checked to see who was doing it, but nothing pushing the cpu that hard from my account in task manager. So I checked the system account and there it was – svchost. So I checked the services running from that iteration of svchost and out of the 3 (Superfetch, ReadyBoost, and Windows Audio Endpoint Builder) it was Superfetch that was tying up the cpu. So a simple stop service fixed that, except I would like to use Superfetch. I don’t understand why it just started doing this. I’m not aware of any updates to the service that occured lately. I have not changed my application use habits drastically so that it would have to completely rebuild it’s database. I’ve seen others posting to boards with this same problem, but no answers. So for now I am running without the super-, just with the pre-, ha.
Hunter is playing in the PONY All-Stars Directors Tournament tonight and this weekend.
Here’s a simple way that I was able to export one category from my worpress database to a new worpress installation.
- Create a new user as an author. (I used “export-author”)
- Goto Edit Posts and Filter by chosen category.
- Bulk Edit and change the author to export-author.
- Then go to Tools and Export.
- Choose to restrict author to export-author.
- Import file into new wordpress.
- Choose to change import author to existing author of new installation.
Hunter has graduated kindegarten. And he won the MATH award! That’s my boy! I can’t believe he is growing up so fast. Now he is playing t-ball, having swimming lessons, and going to extend-a-care camp. Next year we are moving him to a different school. The one he was at just didn’t have all the opportunites we wanted for him.
