I have 128Mb in my system and still have swap, I wouldn't reccomend running a
system with out it. If you do fill up RAM and the system needs more, you crash
unless you have swap. I use 256MB swap (far more than I need) but rarely use
more than about 10MB. I would also reccomend using ext2 partitions for Linux
because windows can't read/destroy them. I have used RedHat 4.2, 5.2, and
Mandrake 5.3, 6.2, and now 7.02 and reccomend Mandrake highly, especially for
newbies. Yes Linux can mount/read/write FAT32, and FAT16 (and many other
filesystems, including NTFS)

# mkdir /cdrom /cdrw
fstab lines are:
/dev/hdc /cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0
/dev/hdd /cdrw iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0
if you're using them as IDE devices. If Mandrake is being "smart" and has
configured your system so that you can use your CD-RW to write as well as
read, both of the devices on IDE controller 1 will be seen as SCSI
devices. Then, you'd have the following in /etc/fstab:
/dev/scd0 /cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0
/dev/scd1 /cdrw iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0
http://linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO.html for info on getting that
CD-RW up and running.

Try rebuilding your kernel, and make the floppy driver compiled-in
instead of a module. That's how I fixed a similar problem.
Let us know if it works.

But, I think the original poster's problem, is the same one that
I am having. When running configure, the script has to run all the way
through, to *CREATE* the Makefiles, and it's failing even before that.
Without a autoconf'ed generated Makefile, compilation can't be done. I
have the same problem - /usr/include/gtk-xmhtml/gtk-xmhtml exists, but
configure complains about it. About to check the gnucash-devel
archives.. if nothing there, try posting to the mailing list. they
should have something for it..

In addition, I can install and/or upgrade something without incident. I can
take an upgrade or downgrade or reinstall a prior version released by the
_SAME_ people and get these errors. Weeks later I'm treated to info that
a bad disk image was released and the new one works. Sometimes just
trying enough times works, with never receiving any memory- or mobo-
related errors.
So, simple answers are sometimes simplistic instead.

The files suffixed with the ~ are backup files. Files pre- and

You can use a made-up one. Just choose one that doesn't (and
preferably, can't) exist. Then make sure it's in /etc/hosts
so that it points to itself.

Almost. xmkmf is a script that invokes imake. It really doesn't matter
whether it is an X application, although xmkmf will generally stick the
standard X libs into the library link list whether needed or not (it
doesn't hurt anything though). I think it would be unusual to invoke
imake directly.

hi,
i have a box that runs on a Motorola processor. I wanna

Since linux has html source code, I just wanna port the code

I would think there should be no problem of doing this since both
linux html server code and my OS code are written in C.
Can anyone think of any limitations of porting the linux code

It's not clear what you want to do. It sounds to me like you want to do
one of two things:
1) Take web pages (.html documents) from a Linux box and serve them
from some other OS that runs on a Motorola processor. If so, you
don't need to modify the .html documents at all. (They are NOT
programs, just document files.) You DO need a web server on the
Motorola box, but without knowing what OS that box is running,
there's no way to give you advice on what sort of server to get for
it.
2) Port Apache or some other web server to your unnamed OS running on
the unnamed Motorola CPU. This might be anywhere from unnecessary
(already done) to a major problem. Again, we can't really offer much
in the way of help without more details. I also suspect that there
might be some better newsgroup (or maybe an Apache mailing list) that
might be a better place to get help than comp.os.linux.misc.

I have seen several, very small distributions of Linux available on the
Internet.
If you go to http://www.linux.org you will find a link that say's
"Distributions".
Click on that link, and it will give you a Web page that has a section that
say's "Distribution Information", with a few links under it.
Click on those links and you will find MANY different distributions of
Linux.
While it is true there is MUCH HYPE over Red Hat Linux being a good, (IT IS
a very good distribution don't misunderstand me) if your going for small &
efficient, an "OFF THE SHELF" distribution probably won't work for you.
If your really pressed for space (12 MB is pressed for space, but more than
enough for a Linux install), and your looking to do an EMBEDDED system, then
you would probably be better off just creating a custom installation for
your project, with only the things you really need.
If you need assistance you're welcome to email me, or post to the newsgroup
as well.
It's only my opinion, and I welcome any comments or suggestions from anyone,
but I hope it helps at least.
