Subject: rebooting into windows
Date: Sun, 9 May 1999 14:09:04 -0230
Hello,
Many times, when rebooting into windows from Linux, a message appears
saying that "windows has performed an illegal operation and will be shut
down". This does not normally happen if I halt Linux, power off, then on,
the system, and then boot windows (via LILO).
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Neil Zanella

Subject: Upgrading the Kernel
Date: Sun, 09 May 1999 11:43:18 -0500
I am having trouble updating the Linux Kernel on my machine. After the
kernel is compiled and installed (I think), the system hangs on the
reboot saying that it can not mount root. It does this after it detects
the IDE devices and then tries the SCSI. I have one SCSI device, a 4.3
GB hard drive. That drive is what Linux is installed on even though my
IDE hard drive is the first boot drive.
I have a tripple boot. I have Windows 95 OSR2, Windows NT Workstation 4
(SP4), and Linux. I have Windows 95 installed on an IDE hard drive and
I have a SCSI drive shared by NT and Linux. I have BootMagic on the IDE
drive that gives me a menu for what OS to load on start up. When I pick
Linux, it goes to /dev/sda1 and loads lilo.
I want to update the Kernel from 2.0.36 to 2.2.7. I got linux from a
book called Red Hat Linux Unleashed that included Red Hat 5.2.
I have a Diamond FireGL 1000 Pro graphics card using the Permedia 2
chipset so I need the new kernel in order to use Xwindows because the
kernel I have does not support Permedia 2.
My SCSI card is a Diamond FirePort 40 Ultra Wide that is identified as a
NCR 53C8xx PCI by the initial install.
When I do a "make config" and get to the part dealing with SCSI drivers,
I say yes to the NCR 53C8xx but have been saying no to next option that
is something like SYM 53C8xx. The information given with that says
something about how those drivers can work together but you have to add
an option in lilo. I had been saying no to that driver because it
doesn't seem to use with the old Kernel and the SCSI works fine with
that.
The lilo.conf file has a line in it that says
"image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.36-0.7.img" I have been putting a "#" in front
of that to remark it (I think that remarks it) because it seems to deal
with the old kernel. But so far I have not come accross a replacement
for that line with the new Kernel. Any ideas?

Of course root cannot change the permission FAT doesn't store any

You need to set the umask, gid, or uid when you mount the partition. Look
at the mount and fstab man pages. (btw I mount mine so group `dos' can
write and add users to group 'dos' if required.

You could back up all your data onto floppys. Unless you do image

Sorry I don't understand this question. How can you install it on a drive
that does not exist? Installing on a second hard drive is the same as
installing on the first.

In terms of price per byte your better off buying a new drive. If you're

ELF supports dynamic linking much better as I understand it.

Subject: RH to Debian --easiest way?
Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 00:10:20 +0800
I knew no better when I got RH 5.2 off the front of a
magazine and installed it. Now, I like the look of Debian
more and more.
I know there's a HOWTO somewhere for changing a
system from RH to Debian, but it looked complicated.
As I only have a few wordprocessor and graphics data
files to be kept, if I back them up to floppies, is it really
simple to just erase everything and install Debian?
I've got one 4.3G hard drive, with one 2G DOS partition, one
extended partition -- which has Linux in 3 logical partitions
-- could I just use fdisk to wipe the logical partitions?
Probably a good idea to decrease the size of that DOS/Win95
partition, as I never use Win95 any more.
I suppose it would be correct to uninstall lilo from the mbr also.
Any useful pointers will be appreciated.

Barry Kauler

Thanks, that's good to know.
I don't particularly like running s/w on a UNIX box, for which I can't
get the source code, but I'm testing the v0.71 of upx anyway.
I have found at least one small bug with its signal handling, which seems
to only have cosmetic consequences:
I've upx'd the copy of the "mutt" mailer that I'm running, which I
normally have started from within a wrapper /bin/sh script.
When I fire up mutt in my usual way, and then suspend (^Z) mutt, the
suspension msg gets truncated, and the subsequent shell prompt gets
"offset" a few character positions to the right, thusly ("W: " being
my prompt):
---this would be the bottom line of mutt's display (ie, the status bar)---
Suspended
W:
However, when I run the upx'd mutt directly (w/o going thru the wrapper
script), I get the normal, expected behavior upon suspending:
---this would be the bottom line of mutt's display (ie, the status bar)---
Suspended (signal)
W:
This is using vt102 as my TERM, and with mutt built using slang (v1.2.2).
As I said above, it is a minor problem, and (probably) only cosmetic in
nature, but it still points up a signal handling problem (and thus I
wonder what *other* signal handling bugs may be lying in wait ...).
Yes, I'll send the developers a copy of this, as a bug report.
As may be, my 393044 byte copy of mutt went from a gzexe'd size of
177690 bytes (54.9%), to a upx'd size of 168235 bytes (42.81%), which
is another 12% off the uncompressed size. The upx'd binary also loads
noticably faster than the gzexe'd version. This is using the -9 level
of compression for gzexe/gzip, and the --best level for upx.
That's pretty significant ...!
Anyway, thanks again for pointing me towards the UPX package ...

Crashing is a "feature" of the Windows architecture. As is the ability to

I sysadmin 4 RedHat systems, my son's, my wife's, mine at home, and at work. I
use both of mine for C, Java, and perl programming. I have not had a single
crash on any of the 4 systems in the year that they have been running. I used
to crash Win95 two or three times a day when developing. The only problem I
remember is managing to confuse my Xserver once at work, I had to kill and
restart it. My experience is that Linux is "absolutely" stable.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Why is it that Linux keeps telling me that my floppy is read only? I mount
one floppy that is, but every other floppy after that is also RO even if it
is not. When I umount the first one, flip the tab to make it R/W, and
remount it, it still says it's R/O. As far as I can tell it has something
to do with the cache/buffers but running 'sync' doesn't seem to do
anything. Even the command 'dd' says that it's R/O, and 'mdir' (from the
mtools package) keeps spitting the same contents even though I've changed
floppies.
This is on Linux 2.2.3, on a majorly updated Red Hat 5.0 distribution.

True, but in this case UPX is an exeception for me because it's not a new
program. I've been using the earlier DOS version of it to compress files
