I recently bought a copy of Upgrading and Repairing PCs (Linux Edition) by Scott Mueller (with the Linux General Store).
The book comes with a bootable CDROM with utilities such like. It is very interesting! This CDROM is designed as a utility disk that can rescue disks or create disk images and so on. What I found interesting: 1. The ability to create Disk Images - TomsRtBt disk, LRP 2.9.4, Trinux, and a few others (but not Matterhorn or Eigerstein or Eigerstein2Beta, which would have been contemporaries of LRP 2.9.4). 2. Almost no diagnostics style information, but rather big text-based ANSI visuals and instructions. 3. Using alternate video displays for other than just another tty - FreeSCO does this too. 4. The use of /usr - /usr is a CDROM based directory - a Live Filesystem. Something along this order would be perfect for the Oxygen/LEAF Resource CDROM. An aside: apparently the sites mentioned - www.linuxgeneral.net and www.linuxgeneralstore.com - are both gone. Perhaps the Linux General Store went belly up? The domains are still registered. -- David Douthitt UNIX Systems Administrator HP-UX, Unixware, Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
