Members please check and correct any spelling


mistakes


or wrong email address.

Listadmin kindly note if there is any new email


here.


You may add it in the list.

The turnout was large considering the late
announcement. 5:30 pm was the
scheduled time but since there were some official
formalities required
we were delayed by an hour. Moreover finding the


hall


was difficult for some people.
The arrangement was excellent. An LCD projector
would have completed our wish list. Otherwise we


got


just everything we wnated -
enough seats, AC room, Good atmosphere, white


board,


etc.
First each member gave a short self-introduction


one


by one.
After that Indra gave his talk on building rpm
packages.
Demonstrated how to build a ".src.rpm" file and a
".rpm" (binary) file
once you have a source tree that complies and ready
for deployment.
He promised to put some of the slides online. 

On his box we also had a first look of the Bangla
Gnome and the Bangla KDE
desktops in Mandrake.

The meeting ended at about 8:30 pm.

Please add if I have missed any piont.

Hi All:

Got a laptop with Win XP Home, and considering to




add RH 8.0 as a second OS, eventually migrating to
Linux, since there are plenty of data in my laptop


I


do not want to lose (as opposed to freshly start
with Linux as the sole OS and blow away the


current


OS).




That said, I want a dual boot. I think, (and




please advise on this), I need a disk partitioning
software to begin with. The primary partition in


my


machine is NTFS containing 15 GB (10 GB free


space)


and a second partition is FAT 32 (5 GB). I use


DIAS


for accessing the Internet. The machine runs on


AMD


Duron with 128 MB RAM.




I tried to download Partition Magic software but




it was not a freeware. Would greatly appreciate if
you can advise on:




(a) A reliable freeware for partitioning the disk




(without losing data) - or the best way to


partition


the disk




(b) Configuring DIAS (?threads at ilug-cal?) for




RHL




What must I know before trying to install Linux


in






this situation? A few pointers to relevant sites
would be OK, I guess. I am a rookie with Linux.




Should you want to respond to me off the list,




please use [EMAIL PROTECTED]




TIA,
Arin





try using 'Bootitng'. download it from the net.
DIAS configuration is
very much like a LAN configuration with


nameservers


and  fixed IP
address and gateway.
