You can't access *any* file system - cd-rom, floppy, or even on the hard
drive(s) - until they're mounted. At the command prompt type:
man mount
and
man fstab
to get started. Not knowing what Linux you're running - and thus what
the default setup of your fstab is - it's tough to give more info. If
it's a stock RH 5.2 system, you can just type:
mount /dev/cdrom
And.....don't forget to unmount it 'cause it usually locks the drive
drawer 'till you do - you can't change cd's unless you type:
umount /mnt/cdrom (again, this is for red hat)
Pop into a library and look for a book on basic Unix commands. There are
more basic Unix books than Linux books at this point, and the basic
commands are the same. After looking through one of those, you can
select a Linux book with a little better idea of what kind of info you
want in a book to learn from.

Check your settings in /etc/apsfilter. You probably have the wrong
"FEATURE= " setting. The following explains the FEATUREs:
The following is a copy of the apsfilter used with an HP Deskjet520.
You may find the explanation re the staircase effect useful:
##To set the formats you use when you send ascii documents through
a2ps. This also #controls all the files
#you print with the command lpr <filename>:
#FEATURE=1 To print one page on one sheet with a header
#FEATURE=2 To print two pages on one sheet with a header.
#FEATURE=1n To print one page on one sheet without a header.
#FEATURE=2n To print two pages on one sheet without a header
#FEATURE=1l To print one page in landscape mode with a header.
#FEATURE=2ln To print one page in landscape mode without a header.
##The default and the one I use is :
FEATURE=2n
#A2PS_OPTS="FEATURE=1 -f -s1 -t5 -1 -l66 -p -nc -d -r -m -ns -nl
##The following explains these settings:
##FEATURE=1 =To print one page on one sheet with a header
##-f = line wrap
##-s1 =oneside printing
##-t5 =use a five-space tab
## -1 =one page per sheet
##-l66 =sets 66 lines of printing

The remarks about the missing module 'FvwmConfig' brought me to the
idea to start this thread (you might remember - the rpm --verify
question). As a Newbie I'm not concerned this module is really a file,
at least I cannot find a file named 'FvwmConfig' anywhere on the
HDD's.
Since these problems started as my RAM refused to work properly and
now I even have the feeling the mainboard is defective too - I think I
should better replace all of my hardware.
One thing I cannot figure out:
>missing: /usr/bin/foo
The distri I'm using did not create a dir called 'foo' - I suppose you
are using Redhat. What is ../foo for?

No, all of those are legal under "fair use" provisions.

Yes, you can refer to a copyrighted work. However, one of the criteria
of "fair use" is that the parts quoted are fairly small. This is the
same problem we discussed with the word list/number list discussion.
You can write "on page 5, 3 3, the author wrote 'Hi there'".
You cannot write "On page 1, line 1, the author wrote...., on page 1,
line 2 the author wrote..." and so on, until you covered all of the
novel.
In the paste-on example, the end result is a book in which large parts
(in fact, all) of the original are contained. Therefore, distributing
this work is illegal, and, as far as I know, distributing the "kit" to
make this work might be illegal as well.

> thankyou :)
To look at the filesystem of a CD drive, you need to mount it first. In
the file /etc/fstab is a list of all your current drives that are
readable and you need to add one for your CD player. First you need to
know which device it is, if you don't know, it should scroll by when you
boot up. Mine is /dev/hdc so I'll use that as an example.
In fstab, insert the line:
/dev/hdc /your/mount/point iso9660 ro,user 0 0
Now you should be able to access the CD by typing:
% mount /dev/hdc
from the command line and you will see the files in the directory
/your/mount/point (make sure this exists first!).
To get at other drives, the procedure is similar, looking at the man
page for fstab will give you more detail on how to do this (simple
variations on the above eg).

That is correct.
Imagine what would be possible on systems with quotas:
If you have eaten your disk qouta, you could simply move your files to
somebody else without his knowledge and hapilly continue to likvidate
free disk space ... that would be VERY SILLY.

The question is whether you want to maintain backwards compatibility
with 2.0. If you can forgo modules under 2.0 then deleting all
references to kerneld is okay. Also you may want to add a "rmmod -a" in
crontab to remove autoclean modules.
If you wish to maintain a 2.0 kernel, then I think the appropiate test
is [ -e /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe ] which (IIUI) only exists under kmod
and add it to /etc/rc.d/init.d/kerneld. (The rmmod -a in crontab will do
no harm here either). So you have the best of both worlds.
HTH and IHIGIR. ;-)

m4 is usually used to generate .cf file from .mc file.
What you should do is to rewrite the .mc file according to
your needs and use m4 to make the new sendmail.cf file.

The primary reason I use SuSe is that I can't figure out how to
change the default window manager in Red Hat 5.2.
While I can't be terribly enthusiastic about the YaST tool, I have
managed to use effectively. I don't recall anything similar in Red Hat,
but it has been a while.

I can certainly confirm that I can't read any of the ADFS format disks

Oh really, most of it's employees are heavily invested shareholders (or options
holders). Basically you're saying they don't care about themselves. Very
interesting.

As I said, Windows everywhere seems to be the best way to make cash.

I don't know everything you'll need, but you'll need /dev
and to create the devices therein - that's why your kernel
can't find your console. Hmmm, you'll need init, inittab,
the runlevel stuff from /etc, and probably other stuff in
/etc. If you want to do anything with your system, you'll
need utilities like ls, cat, echo, etc. Look in /bin and
/sbin for a starting point on the minimum you could get
away with. Your trial and error approach seems like a good
way to go, although you'll probably have to do a lot of
system resets. Don't mount your production linux partition
from your experimental linux system to avoid mucking up
the filesystem when things go wrong. Also, did you run
lilo after copying vmlinuz to the new partition?

Date: Wed, 10 Mar 1999 13:37:01 GMT
Hi all,
I am a unix user that will buy a pc and run only linux on it.
I have SuSe 6.0 dist. and thought I start out with that.
I don't like graphical filemanagers and I don't really see the
point with them since I feel I am much faster and more flexible
with a simple dtterm running korn shell. Add some awk,sed,perl,vi
to that and many many things can be done quickly.
I do want a windowmanager that can handle my icnonified shells and
programs and stuff like that though . From the specs and looks WM
and Enlightenment seems to be very nice. VM for looks and
functionality and E mostly for looks (at the moment).
So now to my questions:
SuSe seems to be KDE equiped as default, maybe to get microsoft users
to feel more at home.
So how does it work, do I run WM and KDE at the same time?
If I want GNOME/VM instead of KDE/WM what will be the difference ?
Thanks if anyone can sort this out for me.

I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has installed SuSE

other
distros like RedHat 5.2 and so forth.
