Nothing. It's IDE Floppy, not Floppy. You should have new hd* entries

dmesg output.
Is this another change introduced by libata?
No. IDE floppies are a different kind of device, IOmega Zip is one example.
They are attached to an IDE controller, just like a hard disk or CDRom
drive.
RHEL still uses /dev/fd{0,1} so I imagine this is a back-port they have
done?
Dunno. The kernel driver still uses fd internally. However, here's the
relevant udev rules from Gentoo:
% grep -r floppy /etc/udev/rules.d
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules:# floppy devices
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules:KERNEL==fd[0-9]*, NAME=floppy/%k,

0660 -G floppy $root/floppy/%k
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules:KERNEL==fd[0-9]*, ACTION==remove,
RUN+=/bin/sh -c 'rm -f $root/floppy/%k?*'

ATTRS{cmos}==?*, RUN+=create_floppy_devices -c -t $attr{cmos} -m %M -M
0640 -G floppy $root/%k
But the rule for IDE floppy looks like this:
% grep -r ide-floppy /etc/udev/rules.d
/etc/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules:KERNEL==hd*[!0-9],
ATTR{removable}==1, DRIVERS==ide-cs|ide-floppy,

This will allow you to multiboot into either OS. A common data partition will allow you access to your data files, music, etc. by both OS too. HI, Can u assist me or explain more detailed how do i shrink my MSWindows and how do i create new partitions to install Gentoo so that i can do multiboot into either os? and also about the common data partition. Hi Norman, -- Try to follow accepted/expected netiquette on this mailing list please. Check (http://linux.sgms-centre.com/misc/netiquette.php) which includes avoiding html format and top-posting. -- My way of shrinking MSWIndows OS partitions: 1. Move all data files from C:\ drive, where MSWindows usually saves files as a default (e.g. from My Documents, My Music, etc.), to a CD/DVD/fileserver. 2. Delete all *.tmp files under C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Local Settings\Temp, stale image files, etc. 3. Defragment the C:\ drive, reboot and defragment once more. 4. Use Gparted to shrink the C:\ drive partition to something between 12 to 15GB. 5. Boot into MSWindows, which may well run chdisk - let it finish. Then go to Administrative Tools/ Disk Manager and create a new data partition, but leave enough space on the disk for the Gentoo partitions (min 10G). The new data partition can be formatted as ntfs or msdos. 6. Move all your data files from the CD/DVD/fileserver into the new partition. Change all MSWindows applications default paths to save their new files into your new data partition, instead of C:\ - otherwise you will soon run out of space on your C:\ drive. For getting gparted go to http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php download the iso and burn a CD image. If you would prefer using a LiveUSB and your PC can boot from a USB drive, then follow the link to the LiveUSB in the gparted website. Then follow the Gentoo installation handbook for creating the Gentoo partitions while booted into the gparted LiveCD if you wish, or boot using the Gentoo LiveCD and use fdisk to create the new partitions exactly as the handbook describes. Multibooting can be achieved in different ways. If your linux installation is to become permanent then follow the Gentoo handbook to install Grub in the MBR of the hard disk and configure your /boot/grub/grub.conf as shown in the handbook for chainloading the WinXP OS. Alternatively, if your MSWindows OS is permanent and your Linux installation is temporary, you will need to install Grub into the partition boot sector of your Linux OS (either the /boot partition, or if you do not use a separate boot partition then use your root partition) and follow the instructions under the section Getting NTLDR to Load Linux in this link: http://www.vsubhash.com/writeups/multiboot_os.asp The link describes the LiLo boot manager, but the principles are the same as far as MSWindows is concerned. You can google for chainload Grub using NTLDR or similar to find the same approach but using Grub as the linux boot manager.

[gentoo-user] Second dvd/cd device confused with K3B

as the second dvdrw device in a workstation.

upon logging in, I get this popup error message in kde:

Please make sure you have access permissions to:

The error message device (/dev/cdrom) does not exist. Should I manually
create it? Modify a udev rule? or what?
Note: when I run K3B, I do not see both devices as active
at the same time.
Yet, I can manually load a source dvd/cd into either device
and (via dbus/ivman)
a popup appears which I can use to launch K3B and the source device
is seen, but the device with the blank dvd/cd media is blanked out. If I
switch the source dvd/cd then the device with the source disk is seen
and the other is blanked out.
Ideas on fixing this so I can load a dvd/cd into one drive and copy
to the other? (yes they are both dvdrw and cdrw devices. One is sata, the
other is ide, if that matters.

It shouldn't ; you just should see in the k3b configuration what devices it sees and tell it what to use. m. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

YMMV. and i've used '(something|otherthing|whatever)' to make the 'or's work. I usually do perl, but it should be the same... Actually on reading further, Apache uses Perl Compatible Regular Expressions provided by the PCRE library. Neat. You should be viewing this with a fixed width font too :) LocationMatch '(\?.*http:\/\/|\?.*https:\/\/|\?.*ftp\/\/)' typo here==^ how about taking the common bits out of the () '\?.*(http|https|ftp)://' and it's good practise to use ^ if that's what you're expecting: '^\?.*(http|https|ftp)://' Order allow,deny Deny from all /LocationMatch is that regex correct? Will egrep use the exact same regex syntax (so i can use it to check?) I think they're essentially the same, with the exception of some classes (like [:punct:] or [\d]). egrep may need some extra escaping so as not to confuse your shell. The best way to test is to use the real program, so see if you can get info out of your logs to help. hth, -- Iain Buchanan iaindb at netspace dot net dot au I tripped over a hole that was sticking up out of the ground. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
