I read an article in the February issue if Linux Journal where the writer
has over half a dozen distro's of Linux and Win98, NT, etc. running on
his laptop. Go to LinuxJournal.com and check it out. The title of the
article is "Mark's Mega Multi-Boot Computer" and it gives detailed
instructions on how to do it.

Just make sure that you have a good backup and a recovery strategy if you try
to upgrade libc. I was once left with an unusable system because of a bug in

I used to have a SDT-1000(? I think- it was years ago) and a 1542B, and
that combination was *very* senstive to cabling issues. Ensure that, first.

I think you'll have to learn by doing, as I did. Here are a few pointers,
though.
With programs that use autoconf, run "./configure --help" first to find
any extra options.
Use the --prefix option to autoconf to set the installation directory.
Read the man or info pages to "make" "gcc" "autoconf" etc.
Understand the environmental variables "PATH" "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" "CFLAGS"
Read the Makefiles.
If you get an error like "no such file", you can usually fix it by editing
a path somewhere.
Keep on trying, :)

If at all possible, things you build yourself should go into /usr/local.
That location is reserved for your use: the distributor should allow you
to do anything there. If you put things in where the distributor may
take an interest (/lib, /bin, /sbin, /usr), you may have problems
upgrading.

When I try to use the mkbootdisk disk, the system seems to
load, however slow, and then has a lilo prompt and then it
reboots the system and will continue to repeat it until I take the
disk out and reset the system.
If I use the boot disk with the lilo and linux filesystem on it,
It will start to initialize and then I just getting my screen filling
with numbers, ones and zeros, if I remember correctly.

P.S. On the disk that was created with mkbootdisk, is it looking

Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2000 20:35:37 -0500
I have Redhat 6.1 and just installed wu-ftp, which seems to be
an ftp server. After I installed it, I did an ps aux and top to
see what programs were running to see if I could find the
wu-ftp daemon running and I could not find it. I then ftp-ed into
that system and then looked at the running programs and
something like in.wuftpd came up on the screen and when I
logged off the ftp client on the other machine the in.wuftpd
dissappeared from the running programs list. So it seems like
that particular daemon runs / loads on demand. A question is
what loaded the daemon origionally and what makes it come to life
and all the little details inbetween. Where can I find / see the
loaded,
but not activate wu-ftp daemon. This would imply that there are
programs in the background that top and ps aux cannot see.

Any ideas?

This is a common problem. The output plugin changes to disk writer when
you install. Go to the preferences and change the plugin.

Here is my burning setup.

When I am burning a cd image off the drive (both audio *.cda and data)
it will burn up to about 96% and give me an error:
scsi sendcmd:retryable error

warning: some drives don't like fixation in dummy mode
(this is using simulation burn, but happens in regular burn as well).
I was getting the same error using a Diamond Fireport SCSI card as well.
This is using the latest version of X-CD-Roast 96e. Does anyone have

I had a similar problem when I had first installed 6.0. I am a little
fuzzy on the details now, but I remember that it had something to do
with KDE, which I found very odd because I was running Gnome instead.
Anyway, going through the KDE menu, I found a switch for
enabling/disabling sound in KDE. I disabled the sound in KDE and,
somehow, that "freed it up" for Gnome. I am not an expert on Linux at
all, and your problem may have nothing to do with mine, but that's what
worked for me.
