I was just curious, why can't you use locate? Assuming you have updatedb
slocate, and locate commands on your system, but I thought those are
fairly standard. locate does spit out a lot of files if you aren't
specific, but I figure if you already know the exact file name it isn't
an issue.

Just for kicks, here's a version of the utility using Perl. It is (should
be if I didn't screw up) a simple translation of the awk code. No idea if
there's an easier way to do it.

I'm surprised there's not a generic utility that does this, a la basename
and dirname. 

--begin--
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use Cwd;

for ( @ARGV ) {
  if( !/^\// ) {
    $_ = cwd() . "/" . $_;
  }

  # Replace multiple slashes with a single slash.
  s:/{2,}:/:g;

  # Replace /./ with /
  s:/\./:/:g;

  # Remove /. from EOS
  s:/\.$::;

  # Remove any trailing slash. 
  s:/$::;

  # If I wind up with an empty string, I must have started with "/". 
  # Print / for the path and continue to the next line of input.
  if( $_ eq "" ) {
    $_ = "/";
    next;
  }

  # Remove occurences of /../ by deleting the preceding parent
  # directory from the path.
  while ( m:/[^/]+/\.\./: ) {
    s:/[^/]+/\.\./:/:g;
  }

  # Remove any trailing /.. by deleting the preceding parent
  # directory from the path.
  s:/[^/]+/\.\.$::;

  #
  # There could be more occurences of .. than parent directories.
  #
  # For example:
  #   /home/brian/../../../../../../../home
  #
  # After collapsing occurences of .. in the while loop above, I
  # am still left with:
  #   /../home
  #
  # Remove any leading /../
  #
  s:^/\.\./:/:;

  # In another example, I might start with:
  #   /home/brian/../../../../../../..
  #
  # After the while loop, I would be left with:
  #   /..
  #
  # /.. is equivalent to /
  #

  if( $_ eq "/.." ) {
    $_ = "/"
  }

} continue {
  print $_, "\n";
}

somebody correct me on this if I am wrong but there is a problem(feature? )
with some cable modems that they grab the first mac address that they see.
and will only "talk" to the first mac address that they see. so if you are
going between two machines for these test/s try and reset the modem between
them so the modem will "relearn" the correct mac address.

According to the info pages on gzip, it uses the same algorithm as PKZIP,
which is Lempel-Ziv. PKZIP calls the method it used "deflate." The file
that gunzip extracted was a text file which I opened in emacs and it was
perfectly readable.

I don't have unzip.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Under RedHat7.0 and I have two disks with partitions:

hda1 boot primary ext2 /boot    17.04MB
hda5      logical ext2 /      2027.23MB
hda6      logical swap          67.61MB

hdc1 boot primary ext2          18.07MB
hdc5      logical ext2        2029.81MB
hdc6      swap                  68.13MB
hdc7      logical ext2       28642.30MB

The idea would be to mirror hdx1,5 and 6(?) so that if hda fails I
could somehow boot from the other. If hdc fails I restore hdc7 from
tape.

It seems that it does not make sense to mirror hdx6 but it hda fails I
must have swap space (and ready to start) in the other disk.

How do I do this mirror? Does it make sense, anyway? Maybe mirror is
the wrong word and that's why I can't find faqs about it.

hdc7 will take ages to fsck. I will turn to ReiserFS soon. Any other
suggestions?

Thank you for any help.

  From the info page on gunzip:

       Files created by zip can be uncompressed by gzip  only  if
       they  have a single member compressed with the 'deflation'
       method. This feature is only intended to  help  conversion
       of  tar.zip  files  to  the  tar.gz format. To extract zip
       files with several members, use unzip instead of gunzip.

Lots of things are incompatible. The fact that bash2 uses ; as a
terminator in lists, while bash1 uses it as a separator, is the most
obvious.

       There is no mechanism for using arguments in the  replace-

That will only set text mode video when you're running something outside

I tried those, but it said

mount: fs type fat not supported by kernel

I also tried

mount -t msdos -o fat=12 /dev/fd0 /floppy

in case the floppy had a fat12 fs, but it gave the same errors as before.

Hello,

sounds like sofware RAID you are looking for, there are some HowTo
available.

You can set max. mount-count between e2fsck with tune2fs, but why does it
fsck so much? Are you booting so much, or
is your system crashing, then there is something wrong, as I have only
seen Linux crash due to hw failure?

Good luck

If you follow the instructions in the bootdisk-HOWTO, be very careful
when you get to the part of making your /dev/ entries. I copied everything
from /dev/ to the ramdisk. Then I attempted to delete uneeded devices.
I thought I was deleting them from the ramdisk, but I had deleted them from
hda1 instead! Now my system is totally trashed and I have to reinstall.

No, I can only get TWO boot configurations?! This two is from the main

pipe size (512 bytes)       8
stack size (kbytes)         unlimited
cpu time (seconds)          unlimited
max user processes          256
virtual memory (kbytes)     unlimited

seems to be no problem, but I haven't tested it....

Good luck

Hello,

#ulimit -n 4096

#ulimit -a
core file size (blocks)     0
data seg size (kbytes)      unlimited
file size (blocks)          unlimited
max locked memory (kbytes)  unlimited
max memory size (kbytes)    unlimited
open files                  4096
pipe size (512 bytes)       8
stack size (kbytes)         unlimited
cpu time (seconds)          unlimited
max user processes          256

seems to be no problem, but I haven't tested it....
