Like the other guys said, either boot of a rescue disk or plug the drive
into an already functioning Linux box.
I'd avoid booting off the disk itself or using any executables from it,
in case the developer left some booby traps....

You do want to unmount /usr. Something is using it even after all
processes have been killed. Suggestions:
1) You've moved umount to /usr/something.
2) You've just upgraded to glibc2, following the HOWTO, which leaves the
main C library, used by umount, on /usr.
3) You have some bizarre unkillable process.
My guess is one of the first two. Try "which umount" as root, and check
it's not in a subdirectory of /usr. Then try "ldd umount" and make sure
none of its libraries is in a subdirectory of /usr.
That should solve your problem.

Have a look at /proc/sys and the related documentation (in

Easiest way would be to do a copy with NFS, which does support hard
and symbolic links. Otherwise, System V/Coherent should do the trick.
Can SCO OS5 be mollycoddled into mounting and read-writing UFS? If so,
you could always try that too.

Check that the ~user/cgi-bin/ directory is readable and the scripts

Cute thought, but, that would just encourage companies to power
cycle the server until it falls over *grin*.
A better idea would be to start up a company that supports Linux boxes,
perhaps on a contract basis. Support structures could be varied so that
regular maintenance is more favourable than after-hours emergency repairs.

Huh... The clones were killing Apple, the market wasn't expanding (i.e.
new people weren't buying the cheaper clones) instead they were cutting
into Apple's profits. The problem was price, not quality.

If the BeOS guys had any brains they would have figured out what to do by
now. All the info is out there, they are too lazy to go get it. And you
are stupid enough to fall for the old "It was Apples Fault" routine.

Dear All,
I would like to modify the permissions of a directory that contains
files and directories (they contain themself directories and files too)
: for instance :
toto directory contains:
-riri file
-rara file
-titi directory
roro file
riri file
-tutu directory
roro file
riri file
etc...
I would like that in same time:
- all my files in toto are "666", I mean +r+w for everybody and
- all the directories in toto are "777", I mean +r+w and we can cross
them.
(I want ot write these data on a CD-R with cdrecord)
I could do for instance : "chmod -R 666 toto" and after I have to add +x
(for everybody) ONLY for the directories and I do not know how to do
it....
Thanks

Francois
PS It is not possible to it manually, I mean file after file or

Subject: HELP: Kernel panic - Unable to mount root fs
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 1999 10:46:42 -0400
I installed SuSE Linux 6.1 a couple weeks ago and have been enjoying it
quite a bit. Unfortunately, when I originally partitioned my hard disk, I
did not partition the whole 10 Meg. I created a couple partitions using
about half of the disk.
I attempted to use SuSE yast to set up the rest of the disk as one big
partition today and appear to have seriously messed things up.
When I first tried to create the new partition, I was in XWindows and got an
error saying that I could not repartition the disk while the partition table
was in use. I logged out of X to try again. From the console as root, yast
gave me an error message (don't remember the exact text - something about
invalid argument from mke2fs (?)).
Not really sure where to go from here, I attempted to reboot. This has
turned out to be a mistake as the boot process gives me a message:
hdb: INVALID GEOMETRY: 0 PHYSICAL HEADS?
and, of course, it cannot mount root so I get:
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs
and the machine is hung.
I am booting off of a floppy to even get this far.
I assume I got into this mess because I should have been in single-user mode
to do the repartition. Unfortunately, I am not sure what to do at this
point, so any advice would be appreciated.
Please respond to the newsgroup since I cannot access my mail.
Thanks

Three things:
1. swat entry in /etc/inetd.conf
2. swat entry in /etc/services (port number must correspond to
the entry
in 1, the default 901 does the job)
can't remember the syntax exactly but this is listed in one of
the doco files.
3. swat itself must be running (should be either in /usr/sbin/ or
/usr
/bin). Your config file can be optionally given as eg.
/usr/sbin/swat -s /etc/smb.conf (to make sure about the option do
'man swat')
Good Luck.

Nonononono....the most innovative and brilliant individuals are

Money is the root of all evil. It is always getting in the way, and
always will until it can be eliminated....which won't be happening until
people realise its not the sole means of survival or happyness...
or even a very good one.
To this day the rich oil companies are keeping viable replacements
for gasoline burning automobiles from getting on the market. And
they won't stop until they can make more from them then they can hiking

is it just a coincidence that the president who started that war happened to

Once again, wrong form of government. And in this country millions
were put in jail for being associated with communism at all. Hell
the US government practiced _genocide_ all through the 1800's....

It could be, it has NEVER been tested. Russia was never a true communist
country...."commune" is the root of that word, not "state". Neither
were any of the others you named off...Germany never even remotely
resembling anything like communism.

There is none. Communism didn't last 5 minutes before Stalin came in and
fucked it all up. Not even sure if "communism" was ever a goal in the first
place.
The only one I am not sure of is Cuba..I do know that they are better off
then when the US and the mob were in control.
Communism, and the form of government LABELED as communism are 2 totaly
different things. Communism would be a great way, if it could be
implemented...which it can't because it would mean greedy people would
have to stop being greedy. And powermongers would have to take a step down,
and that will never happen.
> Sick mother fuckers, all of them.
Yeah, just look at OUR history in Central America....the US government
is the direct root cause of some of the worse things ever done to humans
ever. Not only that, but Nazi scientists are probably working for the US
gov. to this day. I don't think anyone can hold a candle to what we've done,
we just do it to other people in far away places so noone realises it. Oh
and we are still up to it too....just cause it's not news anymore doesn't
mean it stopped.
I still to this day believe the US government created and distributes hard
core drugs like crack and crank to get rid of "embarrasing" individuals.
It has nothing to do with the governmental structure...those in power
are usually there because they want to be....and the fact that they
want to be leads to some serious questions to their motives. Most
the time it has nothing to do with improving the way of life of the
citizens they plan to rule.

I'm relatively new to Linux, and am enjoying many of the security benefits
that are built into it. One of the things I'd like to be able to do is
limit access to files and/or resources by time/date.
For example, I'd like to give my children access to the modem to dial-up
the internet. But I don't want them to have free reign! It would be nice
if I could set some permissions in Linux saying that they could only use
the modem from 6:00-8:00pm, and all day on weekends, for example. This
would keep them from surfing the web when they should be doing homework!
Is this possible under Linux? If not, is there a 3rd party utility or
program that would allow this?
Thanks for any help you can offer!
