Hi all,
I am using the Iomega superdisk with my RedHat linux. It's all working
like a charm, but to fully complete my annihilation of Windblows
FuckMeDead, I would like to instal ext2 file system on these super
floppies, instead of vfat.
If anyone can offer a slightest hint, I'd be mostly gratefull.

Hi:
I am trying to determine whether there are drivers and experience with the
following
cards:
Promise FasTrak with multiple drives either as RAID or large partition.
Bay Networks Netgear 10/100BaseTX NIC FA310TX
I want to get some feedback before I commit money ;-)
Thanks in advance. Please reply direct, ISP news server seems to loose

Would appreciate a suggestions on a Linux and/or general news server.

keep things simple - if your Xserver doesn't work then
try the XFree-VGA fist that'll give you a crap
X-server but its better than nothing. That'll show
that the on-board card works. Then grab the latest X-server
rpms and install then using
rpm -U (-U is upgrade package)
then try again.

Apache is very easy to configure - most of your config is in two files. I
have never worked with IIS, but the sheer size of the beast always scared
me. You can fit all of Apache on a floppy or two.
I was up and running with the NT version in a few hours, had CGI runing in
less than a day (this was with an early beta with bad docs).
RH installs Apache by default (httpd should be running somewhere). I don't
know if that's a good idea, but it makes it easy to configure.

Subject: redhat 5.2 NIC setup problem
Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 20:44:58 +0800
I installed 3c509 in redhead 5.2
but cannot make it run. (3c509 delayed initialization during startup.)
I tried 2 methods:
A. Set the 3c509 at PNP mode.
1. pnpdump>/etc/isapnp.conf
2. vi the /etc/isapnp.conf (select the correct I/O, and irq)
3. run isapnp /etc/isapnp.config
B. in non-PNP mode.
1. modify the network setting using "setup" and "linuxconf"
2. add option for eth0 "I/O=0x240, irq=9" (in /etc/conf.modules)
But got same error?
Please advice any solutions! Thanks.

You had the right idea to use a previewer to select the pages you want
printed, but showing only the first page isn't good news. Likely
the Postscript itself isn't standard-compliant. I'd try another
previewer, such as gv, and be sure to have a recent ghostscript
installed. Another alternative is a utility called psselect,
which does what you think it does. It's in the psutils package.

I have hacked the include files by now and changed the occurences of
_IO_fpos64_t
to __off64_t. It does compile nicely now, but I don't like those hacking
of
the 'official' header files.
Is it possible, that the egcs compiler gets confused by the multiple
redefines
of the storage type? Seemingly the header files were ok.
I don't have a gcc installed to crosscheck it ;(

I have already learned that the '-p' option is used to retain permissions.
How does one make sure that _ownership_ info is preserved as well?
How does a tar archive store such info? Is it necessary to have a file,
say in /etc, that tar uses that lists id numbers and ownership names?

Well, I have /boot/System.map on my Slackware system. It's a copy of
the one in /usr/src/linux, and I update it by copying the new one
over every time I build a new kernel.
I don't know why. I just noticed it was there, and thought it would
be a good idea to update it with the new one. :-)
Never seen /boot/module-info, don't know about that.
