This issue came up during the development of the fusion (hydrogen) bomb,
not the fission (atomic) bomb. The worry was that the fusion reaction, once
started in the heavy hydrogen in the bomb's core, would cause the fusion of
all of the hydrogen in the earth's atmosphere.

They understood the concept, but it was, as you said, based on theory and
calculation, not empirical data. What if their calculations were off on how
much represented a critical mass?

Create a dos boot diskette, place old fat16 format command
on the floppy diskette.
Use a tool to create a backup of the files (pkzip or mtools mzip).
Use fdisk to change the partition type.
Then reformat the drive using the dos boot diskette.
Restore the files. You will have to use dos format /s so that the dos system

Please! Let's stop this overgeneralization. Unless you are specifically
talking about the Linux kernel vs. the FreeBSD kernel (I don't think you
are, since Linux wins there), your argument makes zero sense.

What about Debian is harder? It pioneered the idea of the "smart" package
manager. That is the single biggest thing missing from FreeBSD, IMHO.

Well, that depends on your choice of editor.
I just tried doing what you asked about with NEdit. There is a small
problem with typing a tab character in the search and replace window,
because <TAB> just moves focus to the next gadget instead of inserting a
tab. The trick was to mark a tab with the mouse in the editor window,
and pasting it into the search gadget with the middle mouse button.
Replacing with a number of space chars is a doodle.

This is a gross overgeneralization. Remember Linux is a kernel only. To
state that all Linux distributions ship in a less secure fasion than FreeBSD
is incorrect; just look at Debian.

I don't think it is a good decision for RedHat to bundle fvwm2 as the
default window manager. It is really hard to configure. For one thing, I
spent a long time trying to make that little pager go away. I looked up all
the how-to, man pages, 2 thick books, etc, and have not succeeded yet. The
pager always stays on top, forcing my other windows to squeeze to avoid it.
When I launch netscape, it opens a window larger than the screen, the title
bar disappearing beyond the monitor and the lower 1/3 being covered by the
taskbar. So far, things look so stupid.
Can anybody recommend a simpler (easier to configure) window manager?

I have Linux box running Slackware 3.6, kernel 2.0.36. When I set up
UUCP, I found that UUCP link is very slow and have A LOT OF CRC errors!
First I've checked hardware correction on my modem, it is on. Changing
kernel to 2.0.35 and 2.1.115 hot helps.
I found that commenting out string "/bin/setterm -blank 5" in
/etc/rc.d/rc.M shots this trouble, but if someone logins or try to login
from console or network into system when UUCP link is established, CRC
errors happens and modem hangs up :-(

What distribution of Linux is the server running?
Are the LAN machines on a switch or a hub?
What is the IP address of the Server?
What is the IP address of the Laptop?
What is the Default Gateway of the Laptop?
What is the Subnet of the Laptop?
The simple answer with a pain in the ass solution is to add a static route
to all of the machines that are on the network that want to see the laptop.
The route would be to the Laptop's IP address with the Server's IP address
as the gateway and a netmask of 255.255.255.255.
The correct answer with an easier (but more technical) solution is
to enable IP Bridging on the server accross the two interfaces,
or to enable IP forwarding on the server and establish a new subnet
for the laptop and configure the routers on the network with
a route to the server for that subnet.

Subject: Re: 2 domains 1 linux ????
Date: Thu, 11 Feb 1999 21:13:12 GMT
It's pretty easy to do actualy. I would recomend against doing it in X
though. Best to know what the files are doing and all that. Here is how I
have my network setup. This explaination assumes you have all the network
portion of the system up and running properly.
Machine #1 Linux, acting as a dedicated router for my network. Machine #2
Linux, acting as a dedicated mail sever. Machine #3 Linux, acting as
web,telnet,ftp machine. Machines #2&3 are routed to the world via the NIC on
Machine #1 that is on a dedicated ISDN line. All machines have their own IP's
as well as each domain and sub-domain on Machine #1, Add the routes for all
your domains. route add -host IP.of.domain.com route add -host
IP.of.domain.com Do that for every domain/IP you have where IP.of.domains.com
is the IP of the domain. On machine #3 that hosts my domains. I have to add
aliases to the NIC for each domain. ifconfig eth0:1 my.ip.for.domain netmask
255.255.255.? broadcast ?.?.?.? ifconfig eth0:2 my.ip.for.domain netmask
255.255.255.? broadcast ?.?.?.? ifconfig eth0:3 my.ip.for.domain netmask
255.255.255.? broadcast ?.?.?.?
Do that for each domain you need to have on the same interface. where the ?
are the numbers specific for you. And my.ip.for.domain is the domains IP.
You will have to have your ISP route all your IP's to you and have them
associate the domains to whatever IP's you want. I'll send you the config for
the web access of each domain once you get to the point where you can ping
each domain by name/IP. The mail portion isn't that much harder than this.. I
don't know how much you know about all this but, If your ISP gave you 16 IP's
the odds are you realy only have 14 that are usable. You have to subtract one
IP for the the network IP You have to subtract one IP for the Broadcast IP
Generaly the first IP they give you in the block will be used as the network
IP and the last of the 16 is the broadcast. And you can subtract one more for
your router as well. So the usable IP's are actualy only 13. Let me know if
I've completely confused you here. :-) keith

None, except for the fact that you of course can't recompile the kernel

When I boot my machine in Linux its says "Starting AMD" and hangs for a long time, I

at bootup?
