I have been unable to get to the other tar files.
I cannot move past the position the tape was at when it was powered off in the
hope that it would not write an EOD.
Any other ideas?.

There was a web site somewhere that tells you how to change one of
the files in the OEM install disk so that it would behave as an upgrade.
(ie. not fail on installing over existing Win98) I don't remember how
to do it any more, but I found that info initially by doing a web
search.

Some of the graphics cards implements the higher resolutions differently
than others. Most of the PCI/AGP graphics have linear addressing to the
graphics vs the bank switching of the older ISA card (anyone using them
these day ??).

Those are handled by display drivers... All of the graphic cards these
days
have graphics accelerations (ie. blitter). As long as you have installed
the Windoze drivers, it will use these hardware features.

Then why do they use Linux... I really don't see why we are dragging
the old baggage from the old Unix days. ;) ;) ;)
I don't really like the unified file system not having to logon to

Then you mounted it as iso9660, not Joliet. Linux can read Joliet cd's
just fine. (Though it would much rather deal with rockridge disks, since
they support things like symlinks, ownership and permissions.)

I don't know about USWest, but I do this with BellSouth. Do you know the
protocol they use to assign IPs? Good chance its DHCP. Is there a static
IP instead? Which distro?
DHCP is pretty easy to setup. On RH6, all I had to do was start
'netcfg', select interface 'eth0', select protocol 'dhcp', and 'start on
boot', then hit 'activate' button. DHCP does all the negotiation based
on the MAC address of the NIC which they already have. If you use RH6,
get the 'pump' update first.

Well, I solved my problem. From what I can tell, X uses the FontPath as
defined in /etc/X11/XF86Config, this regardless of what is in
/etc/X11/fs/config or whatever font server config file there is. When I
upgraded, my FontPath was the same from previous version. Once I changed
it to 'unix/:-1' and commented out the old FontPath, restarted xfs and
then restarted X, I finally had true type. This may be documented
somewhere, but it's sure hard to find.

I know where you might be able to get maybe 1000+ non-Y2K compliant 486-50
PCs w/200MB HDD, and also a smaller number of Pentium90s w/1gig HDDs real
cheap. Maybe free if you come get 'em...

The 486s ran win3.1 very well - they might be ok with Linux...

Not the same thing. Languages come and go. Get killed in the next step of
evolution. But unix as a OS will be around for a long time. Even if you
have a completely graphical intuitive OS in a couple of decades from now,
someone will still be typing up these cryptic, complex commands and getting
stuff done efficiently.
Granted, it is difficult to understand, learn and retain. But once you get
the hang of it, it makes you feel that using GUI's are very inefficeint. The
more you put in , the more you get. Please dont tell me these Unix shells
and the assorted programs are going away anytime soon.
Whats with GNU/Cygnus stuff, even Windows is getting more usable nowadays.

Beside xcdroast and cdrtoast, which have been already mentioned, there's
also gcombust and BurnIt. You can also find these on freshmeat. So. you

Oh - and THIS is a GOOD suggestion - THE QNX CHALLENGE. Not much help on
the apps you are describing, but if you are *REALLY* talking about a
Stanley/Livingstone scenario in deepest darkest Africa, armed with an ISP,
electricity, and little money, you could maybe turn a tired old 486 into a
"web TV" - you just make the floppy as directed, pop it into the box, boot
the PC, and you get the Voyager HTML 3.2 compliant browser, and can surf the
net (but you can't print). You'd get email through Yahoo or whatever.
I am *NOT* dogging QNX by any means - I think anyone who takes the
"Challenge" will be astounded!
The URL is www.qnx.com.
I haven't pursued this, but if you want to enhance the browser, you can buy
their SDK for a few hundred bucks, go through the learning curve, and
rewrite it any way you want...
I'm still trying to learn Linux - and don't have time to dig that far.
But I'd *STRONGLY ENCOURAGE* everyone to take the challenge - it really had
an impact on me!
If you've got your ISP info handy, 15 minutes of time, and a blank floppy,
check it out...
Sorry for the bizarre post - if you check it out you will understand my
