No there's nothing wrong here, hda2 is the one you didn't expect, but it
just the extended partition. hda5 and hda6 are the two logicals (/ and

Since you have a linux only system, I would advise you to put lilo in
the MBR.
So just change this first line from
boot = /dev/hda1
to
boot = /dev/hda
And rerun /sbin/lilo afterwards
There should be no problem with the way it looks like right now, but
perhaps you still got at LILO remainder in the MBR, which is making the
mess you see. Overwriting it will solve the problem. (You could FDISK
/mbr in DOS, reboot linux from floppy and rerun /sbin/lilo) That should
solve it too, without changing lilo.conf Both options are equal IMHO, so
choose the one you want.
Oh, and if I were you I'd change the partition type of /dev/hda2 from 5
to 85.
As long as you're running linux only, there's no difference, but when
you install win95 too, it'll assign a drive letter to it, making it
possible to wipe out all data on that disc very easily.

I don't have Linux running at the moment but I will post the info
you request when I do.
I have Linux installed on the second disk of a three disk system.
All three disks are SCSI wide are are connected to a Symbios 83c575 based
controller. I have two SCSI controllers in my system, the other is
the narrow version but same chip.
The Linux root partition is on the sdb1 partition.

I installed lilo 21.5.1 after trying the 2.4.0-test8 kernel and
seeing it gave the "No setup signature found" error like many
of the other development kernels. It still gave the error.

I dunno why your copy of this nice dist. screws up. I installed it and
everything went fine. I didn't use lnx4win, but i installed it by booting
from cd-rom. I have also installed it from dos using autoboot.bat.
I think your problems might come from lnx4win.
Just boot from cd-rom or use autoboot.bat from dos (remember to have cd-rom
drivers loaded it u use autoboot.bat)
Only problem i encountered was that Mandrake altered my extended dos partion
to linux extended partion and i couldn't accsess to it from windows. This
had simply solution. Just change the type of extended partion from linux to
win and everything is cool.
For my opinion, Mandrake is realy good dist. to workstation computer for
generic daily use. With right piece of hardware you can do everything on
Linux that you did in windows.
For right piece of hardware i mean right display adapter with right 3D.
(3DFX works better on Linux than other OpenGL boards. correct me if im wrong

Except that it might not be /dev/hdb - those assignments are not

The ibcs2 module lets you run most SCO binaries. Often you do
have to do some sym-linking to make the app happy in the linux
directory structure, and now and then you'll find it looking for
things that have slightly different names or syntax, so you might
have to write some shell scripts to front-load things. Also,
terminal emulation can be less than fun. If your app vendor does
offer a Linux port (and you should encourage them in that
direction) you'll obviously be better off..

See http://pcunix.com/Linux/scolindiff.html
You need to be more specific about the tape drive- SCSI or IDE.
BTW, the same software you are probably used to in SCO like
Microlite Edge, Lonetar, Ctar also have Linux versions..

Great definitions.
I really appreciate your help. This is definately a lil more to get
your head around than just one /bin /sbin dir, but I can see that once I
do, it will help organization.
The main reason I was wondering is that I have to check all the dirs,
when I install an app.
Now if its an X app , Ill look in the X11R dir first, then the local/bin
etc.
Thanks Again

Thank you to everyone for your posts. Great help and definitions, I
really do appreciate it.
If I might inject one more lil follow up question. Remember, I said I
was a newbie as I am sure this is going to sound stupid.
For /usr/bin vs. /usr/local/bin.
The difference was that the program was installed locally or at that
node for /usr/local/bin, right.
Where are the programs installed that are found in /usr/bin? Is is for
running them off of a server like a dummy terminal, and if this is so,
why does my stand alone system have proggies in /usr/bin if it doesnt
connect to any other server to run them?
I know that probably sounds stupid and I appologize.
Thanks again everyone... I really understand it better now, and I am
going now to the posted FHS links to check out the info.
Thanks

kernel-linus is a compiled kernel. What he needs is the virgin kernel
source, then
apply the patches that he wants. It would be nice if Mandrake supplied
a list of
patches to be applied to the original kernel, this way a user could
pick and
choose the ones that are needed.
