Well, what about the relative entry in the logical chain? It is
calculated relative to first sector of the extended partition.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

andries,

thanks for your response - i have another question about methodology:

can i just run an sfdisk /dev/hda < new_config_file, and rerun lilo (with
the same /etc/lilo.conf) while the machine is up? and if sfdisk complains
about mounted filesystems, can i do a --force?

i ask because the mentioned disk is the only harddisk on my system. or
should i use a linux boot floppy to boot, and use another floppy with
sfdisk on it to redo the partition table? and then i have to figure out
some way of reinstalling the lilo bootloader, etc...

essentially, i'd rather be lazy about work, but not at the cost of
crashing my hard disk! :)

thanks again!
shashi

CDDA: 16-bit PCM data in big-endian format
WAV:  16-bit PCM data in little-endian format with header info at the
beginning

There's not a huge difference there!  I suppose if you wanted to rip raw
CDDA from the CD-ROM, "cdparanoia -R" would do the trick, but then the
cd-writing software you're using would have to be told a few things.
F'rinstance:

cdparanoia -B    (rip track01 ... track10.wav)
cdrecord track*.wav

vs:
cdparanoia -R -B  (rip track01 ... track10.raw)
cdrecord -swab -audio track*.raw   (YCD-RWMV on the "swab" option; mine
needs it)

More to type, therefore more potential for screwing up.  Note that this
only applies to cdrecord; no real idea about cdrdao.  HTH,

The numeral 2 in the title indicates this is a second attempt
to post this message.  My apology to the ng if people see
this twice, but news services went down hard and I have no
indication in the local spool that this made it off to
the world last time.  Spool seems to think not. 

Upgrading and Repairing PCs, Linux Edition, Scott Mueller in
conjunction with Joe Devita, the Linux General Store
ISBN 0-7897-2075-2, $59.99 USA/$89.95 CAN/�43.99 (inc of VAT)
Published by Que Books, a division of MacMillan USA, Soft
bound, 1387 pages. (c)1999, 2000, first print edition Nov 1999
Includes bootable Linux CDROM for troubleshooting.

Disclaimer: I am unconnected with Que, MacMillan, 
Scott Mueller, or the Linux General Store, or anyone else 
connected to the book, nor am I a publicist for anyone so 
connected.

I asked a question a few weeks back about my the ASUS P3C2000
motherboard and mentioned that I ran across and bought a new
hardware book that was revised for Linux.  I promised to post
the ISBN info within a few days, but I kept leaving the durn
thing on my couch before coming in to work, so I've been very
late in posting the following information.  My apologies.

This Linux version of Mueller's book is based on the 11th
edition of his PC version of U&R PCs, but appeared to
include extensive discussion of Linux specific issues.
He covers many topics and questions frequently posted
here in comp.os.linux.hardware, though some specific brand
name questions may be lacking.

The book adds coverage on Intel Socket 370 design, Pentium 
through Pentium III, AMD's K7 Athalon, Cyrix,  RDRAM, Intel 
chipsets through the 810, including recompiling your kernel 
for your specific processor, though I didn't look too closely 
there.

The CDROM includes a bootable version of Debian configured
for troubleshooting your existing installation created by the 
Linux General Store and includes installation files for a 
"wide variety of utilities to customize Linux."

For someone building their first PC or Linux box, like me,
this appears to be a worthwhile book to add to your library.

CDROM Contents:
o Que's editions of Partition Magic v4 and BootMagic (tm)

o Linux Everything Disk, this is the bootable Debian
  portion with additional docs listed below
 
o Scott Mueller's Vendor List Database

o PDF files covering many BIOS, Pentium family specs, pnp
  overdrive, modems, etc.

o Some important Linux FAQs covering AfterStep, ATAPI, BL,
  GCC-Sig1, Linux, PPP, and SMP; & including 40 HowTo docs

o Seems to include docs for included Linux programs, 
  including old UNIX standards like tin, but also GNOME 
  and some others

Hope this is of some use to someone.

I use mtx as in:

  No answers, but something you can try, make your boot floppy as a
direct boot (bzdisk) instead of LILO, and don't forget to specify the
root device.

Example:

  make bzdisk ROOT_DEV=/dev/sdb3

  I have been having problems with getting Slackware on a Netfinity

Had the same sort of problem on my AMD K6 3 400 running an AX59Pro Mobo..

It turned out that my SDRAM although it was said to be P100 its not..

Change your clock jumper to 75 Mhz  and multi speen to *5.5 (412.5 MHZ) and 
I bet the problem will go away and in fact the PC will run much better too.

I have a bjc-4200... and use the bjc-600 driver - works great.  Then
again... I never do any fancy printing (just black & white)

I don't follow Canon printer development - but since nobody ever developed

You might get a better answer in comp.compilers or something similar... but
have you tried the more 'manual' compilation, using the -L switch something
like, instead of working with LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

cc -g -o mas mas.c -L/path/to/libextLib.so -lextLib

I am by no means a linker/compiler guru... but I've done similar things with
adjusting LD_LIBRARY_PATH... without luck - at which point I just use -L
switches to 'help' find the libraries.

One other thing that comes to mind... are you 'killing' the old
LD_LIBRARY_PATH value (you mention the ipcLib error - which doesn't seem
related to the library you created)

Subject: "Best Data" PCMCIA ethernet problem
Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2000 01:28:36 GMT

Folks,

I'm having a PCMCIA hardware problem with Debian 2.1.  The card is a
Best Data Cardbus PCMCIA ethernet card.  On boot, the syslog reads:

   cardmgr[97] initializing socket 1
   cardmgr[97] unsupported card in socket 1
               product info: "Cardbus PC card", " /d Base-TX CardBus Ethernet"
               function: 6 (network)

The machine's LAN address is 192.168.168.5.  When I try to ping that
address, I get back "network unreachable".  Same message when I try to
ping other local machines by IP address, so I didn't even bother pinging
outside the LAN or by name.  Under win-98, I can access the network
correctly using using the vendor drivers.

I have added the following to /etc/pcmcia/config:

   card "Cardbus PC card /d Base-TX CardBus Ethernet"
      version "Cardbus PC card", " /d Base-TX CardBus Ethernet"
      bind "pcnet_cs"

When I restart cardmgr, I still get the same unrecognized card message.
I'm confused because the PCMCIA HOWTO says about "network unreachable":

> This message is an absolutely foolproof indication of a routing error. On
> the other hand, mis-configured cards will usually fail silently.

If that's true, then the card is being recognized, which seems unlikely.
On the other hand, I don't know what else to try to get the card recognized.

Any thoughts?
