hi,
I ve got some problems  here lets see if some one can help me.

1). First of all, I was wondering if I run out of hardisk space on my linux
box, what do I have to do then? can i get another hard disk and mount my
/usr or /home on it? if so, I think all I have to do is copy my /usr on the
new Hard disk and thats all, now what I dont know is, how do I make the /usr
mounted on the new HDD every time Reboot? WHat i know is that I can mount
the new HDD in some directory, give the entry in fstab and then make a link
of /usr to /newDirectory/WhereHardDiskIsMounted, please tell me if this is
the right process or if there is more sophisticated ways?

2). Secondly I complied the new kernel 2.2.16, everything works very fine,
except this problem, I did enable the APM support but my computer's power
just wont shutoff when I "shutdown" it. There were about three to four
suboptions in the APM options while configuring the kernel, I enabled the
APM and let the others be default but it didnt work either, then I chose an
option which seemed more like the solution to my problem, but that didnt
work either. Now I cant go on trying all the permutations and combinations,
so if please some one could tell me what option is that which I have to
enable.

3) If please some one could tell me how can I set the "numlock" option "on"
by default? so that every time I log on the NumLock is on by default.

4). Where can I find some real good Administrator's guide on internet? I
want to learn about runing and mintaining linux boxes as server and as
workstations. I cant afford to order some books from amazon.com but I want
to learn more about administarting the systems and their security, so if
some one can refer me to some good material please.

Thanx a lot
Nauman
