Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
That is odd. I would restart the box and see if it continues... Sometimes work units will do that in err or will be stuck... restarting may clear it up but don't be surprised if they start from the beginning.
Didn't work for me. VM seems to be stuck at a "DHCP" line. Atlas was also failing to progress on the same box; yet a test Ubuntu LiveDVD had no issues with the network. Going to nuke and try again.
