Very true. My IBM IntelliStations are not new (PPros with 128MB and
96MB respectively), but the 2.2.14 kernel packaged with Mandrake 6.1
can't see anything at all about 64MB unless explicitly told about it
in that manner.

cd ${i%.tar.gz}
cd to the directory whose name is found by stripping the
'tar.gz' off the original filename. And so on.

Well, not really. It's an example of a sequence of actions
which can be programmed quite easily in one little shell
script, but that would leave the average (or even above
average) GUI aficionado futzing around with the mouse for
ages.

Editing /etc/lilo.conf alone won't make the system bootable; you'll need
to re-run lilo after making the changes, and of course you can't do that
until you've booted. Once you get access to the disk, though, you can copy
your kernel file to a DOS disk and load it using LOADLIN.EXE. That'll get
you up and running. You'll still need to modify /etc/fstab, though, as you
say.

Yes. Check out Explore2fs:
http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/Explore2fs.htm
One caution: Beware of DOS-vs-Linux line ending differences. I don't
recall offhand if Explore2fs has the ability to automatically handle
this. If not, you may need to convert back and forth in Windows. I don't
know if /etc/fstab is one of those files that'll cause problems if it's
got the wrong sort of EOL characters.

Yes, you used kppp. It is a bug in kppp. They apparently used a bug in
the kernel to determine if ppp was available in the kernel. When that
bug was fixed, kppp broke. Get an upgrade to kppp (or stop using it).

fwiw, I've never used that. I just go:

Thanks for the tutorial. You're awesome! Hard to believe you've only
been playing with Linux for a year. That's about how long I've been
using it. Yeah, the command line is amazingly efficient--once you have
the syntax and the options down. You seem to be a regular among the
Linux ngs. Thanks for the GUI archiver tip, and keep up the good work. I
know I appreciate it. :-)

Hey, thanks a bunch for the solution to my problem. I posted this same
issue some time ago, but never got an answer. It's little stuff like
this that will make you crazy! I gave up and just did everything root.
You've just made life a little easier (and saner) for at least 2
people. :-)

Subject: install halts
Date: Tue, 09 May 2000 04:45:21 GMT
hello!
i had mandrake7 on my puter and removed it a few days ago. repartitioned
the hdd and reinstalled win on 4gig (hdd is total 13.5gig).
now i've tried reinstalling linux both via ftp, cdrom and hdd.
almost nothing worked.
first i tried slack but erased it due to the NIC not working.
so i tried mandrake7 again. a skeletoninstall (only bout 300meg no X),
but it just froze about 15-20% into the actual installing.
i have tried these:
mandrake7 ftp (ftp.sunet.se)
mandrake7 hdd
redhat6.2 ftp -"-
redhat6.2 hdd
bestlinux ftp -"-
(both man, rh and best bootdisks recognized my NIC properly as rtl8139)
ALL of these freeze just like that.
and i also have a cdrom with redhat6.0. when i tried that it froze when
writing the ext2 filesystem. (hdderror?)
i have also tried different ftp's.
when formatting the partitions i let it check for bad blocks.
none of the (attempted) installs reported any problems.
so where can the problem be?
funny thing is that slackware CAN be installed. it doesnt hang.
now i am also on my way to getting the NIC working (found the driver
among the experimental ones when compiling the kernel (2.2.15)).
but of course i still feel i need to know why those other installs
failed.
could it after all be a hdd problem? (since they all seem to freeze
after about the same amount of installed software)
i have slack on the rest of the hdd (4part: / /home /x +swap)
could i do a thorough hdd examination via some command? (which?)
and why didn't slack complain in that case??? (cause it seems to work
ok... but i have only had it a day so i cant really tell i guess)
and another thing:)
what's the /etc/conf.modules for?
in that file i see:
alias net-pf-4 off
alias net-pf-5 off
what's that for?
do i need to change anything here when i recompile the kernel (and
choose >=1 module)?
thanks in advance / alex

Hello everyone !
Sorry if this question has already been asked but i didn't found the
answer anywhere !
Here the problem:
What are System.map* files ? Can i remove them (since lilo only use

I'm using RedHat 6.1.

Hello,
I'm running RH 5.2 and would like to send an e-mail message to every user on
the system without having to do each one individually. Any ideas? Is there a
command on the system for this or do I have to do it with a script. Would
anyone please mail me directly at my address, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thank You
Jason
