Some Linux distributions (such as Debian, and - it would seem -
Slackware) are setup to ask for the root password before a single-user
shell.
The way round this is to do:
boot: linux init=/bin/bash (or any other shell-of-choice)
Then you'll have to remount / rw, and edit your /etc/passwd.

I don't.
You would have to provide more details.

If you install 4 primary positions, you can't put any more on
that disk. However, you could install Linux in two partitions,
one for / and one for swap. This assumes you don't encounter
the 1024 cylinder limit for /. Otherwise, you could create
one extended partition and three logical partitions in it and
install linux in the logical partitions. For your purposes you
would want to leave part of the disk unpartitioned. Then
after Linux was installed you should be able to use the Linux
fdisk to add additional partitions either as logical partitions
inside your extended partition or as additional partitions
extended or not outside it.
But I don't think the partitioning into seven partitions
(presumably one primary and one extended with six logical
partitions) was the source of the problem. It was most likely
something you did after that, perhaps trying to mount something
in the wrong place or not creating a Linux file system on
some partition you were trying to mount something on.

Finally! Somebody says what needs to be said!
Of course, the original poster is free to choose their OS as he/she
pleases, but Brad is spot on. The original poster is basically looking for
OS/2, but with more hype.
Warp 3 came waaaay back before Win95 came out and it is _still_ being
supported. Linux, I'm sure will continue to be "supported" in its own
fashion. Linux is great if you're a hot-shot programmer, but RIGHT NOW it
is not good enough for even technically literate masses (i.e. me :)
I've had an on-again off-again relationship with Linux. I keep trying it
every few months, but so far it is not up to snuff. It is not as easy to
use as OS/2, it is not as easy to configure or maintain as OS/2. I gripe
about lack of applications for OS/2, but Linux is even worse. (Yes, it
might have 10x more, say text editors, than OS/2, but 95% of them are as
easy to use as vi, which is NOT fun!)
I don't buy the "light on resources" argument either. With X and GNOME or
KDE going, and a full suite of apps running, it runs no faster than OS/2
on the same machine. And if you run out of swap space...you're hosed. It
doesn't help that it goes on a separate partition which can't be
dynamically grown.
I have no doubts about using OS/2 for at least the next 5 years. No
questions about support. I choose to use OS/2 not to be different, but
because it works better.

anything definitive on installing any flavor of
linux on an IBM PS/2 with an MCA bus. All the

Subject: problem minimizing windows
Date: 18 Aug 1999 11:46:24 PST
Sometimes while in X (I think it is called Fvwm) I have trouble
minimizing windows. This problem coincides with an inability
to minimize or maximize windows through the x and - at the top left
of a given window.
When this occurs to maximize a window I have to click on it down
in the taskbar at the bottum of the screen, and must use file -->
exit to close a window. I would appreciate any suggestions or advice
on how to deal with this problem.
Also, sometimes when I press a key it creates more than one letter
very quickly, like soooo. Perhaps I am holding the key down for a
split second too long occasionally.
Thanks for your help.

Is there a small distribution of linux (that fits into possibly a few
floppies) that can act as a server for HTTP, POP3, SMP, and FTP? There is
really for light work, so it need not have heavy-duty servers like Apache,
but the whole distribution needs to be compact and easy to install.
Any insight into this would be most appreciated.

(Sorry I forgot to attache the sample files sorry about that ;-)
I have created a logonscript.pl wich creates Windows logonscripts on the
fly on a per user bases. This means that there are virtualy no problems
anymore for creating complex inlog scripts based upon group memberships.
You can also extend this logonscript.pl to create even more complex
tasks (like I have done such as starting the X-server on the windows
machine and starting sever X application during the inlog process). You
can do anything aslong as the Client can start those applications from a
batch file ;-)
This is done by the use of the
root preexec method in the [netlogon] service wich is started first.
To use this script you should add these changes to your smb.conf file
[global]
logon script = %U.bat
[netlogon]
; This first statement runs de logonscript.pl file with de username as
paramter
root prexec = /usr/local/netlogon/logonscript.pl %U
;This second statement removes the %U.bat file after the user has
disconnected from this share/service
root postexec = rm /usr/local/netlogon/%U.bat
I have attached my own smb.conf and the logonscript.pl
You should alter the $server="PHONAX" constant in to your own server
such as
$server="MYSERVER"; whatever ;-)
Perhaps you should edit the logonscript.pl file to alter the paths of
the group file and the destination path of the %U.bat file. I always use
/usr/local/netlogon

Subject: TCP/IP disable - monitoring Internet traffic
Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 16:34:34 +0200
How can I disable TCP/IP Internet connectivity selectively? What I have in
mind is something like a shell program, let's call it notcpip.exe for want
of a better name, which will disable all internet communications to a
program when invoked. The syntax should be something like:
notcpip -options myprogram.exe -program_options,
with -options some command line options to the notcpip program (e.g. whether
to monitor internet traffice, ask before allowing traffic etc.)
and -program_options would be the normal command line options associated
with the program myprogram.exe (which could be any valid program). The
notcpip program should intercept (with the option to disable) all internet
traffic which can go to myprogram.exe.
It would be nice if one could e.g. enable Internet support for myprogram.exe
via the command line again and could monitor a program for all Internet
communications. Ideally I would like to mark all programs (that I know of)
with some identification, so I can keep track of any possibly irregular
communications via TCP/IP. Do you perhaps know of a command or program which
can provide one with a detailed audit of Internet communications?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Go to http://www.unix-vs-nt.org/kirch/ and you'll have _more_ than enough
ammunition for your next discussion.
As an aside, there is a little-known deal that Microsoft has with some
instructors at institutions of higher learning that the instructors receive
$200 "awards" when they mention Microsoft products in a positive light.
This makes me wonder if your instructor is a participant or merely ignorant!
