Better than the '-R' switch, LILO has a "fallback" option: it lets you
specify an alternate boot command line, in case the original boot fails. This
works in conjunction with "lilo -R" to clear out the fallback boot command,
after a successful boot.
The LILO source package has a README, with very extensive documentation of
this option.

Subject: Problems with debian & kernel
Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2001 04:56:57 GMT
Okay i'm fairly new to debian, started usign it a few weeks ago, and i did
that simple install (hoping everything i wanted, i can apt-get later).
install goes fine, except the kernel is not quite configured so i can use my
Mitsumi CDRW. So, i decided since debian comes pre-installed with 2.2.15,
it's a good idea to upgrade the kernel (i heard .15 had a few security
issues in it). So i started with 2.2.18, a fairly reliable release, and i
compile it, i believe i know enough about linux and enough about my system
that i would select the right things in menuconfig. After finishing
everyting up, editing lilo, i reboot, now, every time i've done this, first
reboot went fine, but after a while, say....a half hour, while compiling a
program, or doing anything, i get a disk i/o error saying that the
filesystem was read-only (note: this error never occured before when writing
to the system). So after exhausting all of my knowledge, i decided to
reboot and let it all remount properly, but upon reboot, i get a kernel
panic: unable to mount root fs on 03:04. This has happened many times,
sometimes it doesn't happen with the read-only filesystem error, sometimes
when i just reboot (don't ask why, just various reasons) it'll get a kernel
panic. i tried rebooting with my bootdisk made prior to the kernel
compiling (so i can get back into 2.2.15) but i still get kernel panic.
This is driving me nuts, no matter what i do, i can't compile the kernel.
i've tried 2.4.2 as well as just recompiling 2.2.15, and i always end up in
a kernel panic. Can anyone give me some suggetsions, or any idea what might
be happening, what i'm missing in the kernel or anything? Thanks a lot for
any help at all.

This may sound really really stupid, but i'm guessing that corel installed a
boot manager such as lilo to let you select which OS to boot to, however,
did you remove the corel cd on reboot? Cause if you're cdrom is bootable,
it might just be booting from the cd into the installation program again,
and starting from the begining.
If this is not the case, then don't mind me, sometimes i feel that the most
simple solution is sometimes the right one :)

Means you need to upgrade (at least) ppp. Read the "Changes"

Frank,
I think maybe diald is obsolete. Current versions of pppd
(at least the one that comes in RH6.2, and probably also RH7)
can do demand-dialing and idle-timeout disconnect all by themselves.
Well, perhaps I should say with the help of a dialer program like
chat or wvdial. wvdial seems to be better and smarter than chat
so maybe chat is now obsolete also.

Subject: If you install rpm-4.0.2 on RedHat 6.2 ...
Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2001 00:33:09 -0500
If you plan to install rpm-4.0.2 on RedHat 6.2 you may want to note this
little glitch.
Following the RHSA-2001-016, I installed the new rpm-4.0.2 rpm's.
Then I noticed that gnorpm (the gui rpm interface) didn't work anymore.
The message it gave me was:
gnorpm: error in loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/librpm.so.0:
undefined symbol: fdio
Then I noticed in the fine print
(http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHSA-2001-016.html)
a note to the effect that applications which are statically linked
against rpm libraries
should be upgraded or recompiled to use rpm-4.0.2 libraries.
To fix this I had to install the gnorpm source rpm (I found
gnorpm-0.95.1-5.6x.src.rpm)
apply a couple of patches (included), fix a line of source code
(strange) and then recompile.
After that it works fine.
Chris.

I have no excuse other than lack of inertia to learn new things (ie,
laziness!) I learned to create users about 12 years ago - before useradd
existed (afaik), and since that time have always prefered to edit
/etc/passwd directly, never bothered to learn any other way.
I'll join the 21st century and start using useradd now - sounds like it'll
make life easier for me!
Thanks for the pointers.

Clint . . .
I go a little farther than Roger. With each new release, I do the opposite
of the typical recommendation. I install absolutely every package on the
CDROM, then start about disabling things I don't need. This has nearly
always worked wonderfully for me. I still haven't got all the packages and
dependencies down pat, but this nearly always gets everything working. Then
I go about killing off packages. :) I seemed to learn more this way.
Depending on what you intend to expose the machine to, immediately or
eventually, this can be just perfect. There are dozens of sites that
discuss security issues with various packages in Linux versions, used in
various applications. You can read for months on this issue alone. I keep
reloading the packages, kill them , then repair or reload them again. This
how I figured out what had to be there and I liked doing it.
If this is going to be a production machine, and has to go on line right
away, still do this at least once to be sure all the things you need are
there and will work on that machine. Linux is far from an exact science on
the multitude of different machines out there.
-- /etc/xinetd.conf does not have to be modified in any way to have TELNET
sessions work.
-- make sure the Telnet damon is running (ps -ax | grep telnet) you should
get something that looks like the following:
xxxxx (process number) S 0:00 in.telnetd: <name>
-- I usually always again, start with a "custom install" and install
everything the first time you install it
I've had some horrible experiences with RED HAT 7.0, right up until I
installed it for the 40th time! <grin> I find RED 7.0 very stable as a
server, but I don't ever use it for much else. I have only one relatively
minor issue that I haven't overcome yet that deals with backing up 100+mb
files to Linux. They do fine to a WIN2000 server, but fail approx. 30
minutes into copying these large files to a Linux server. I'll figure it
out, but that is about the only issue I've run into.
The MAN and INFO pages pretty much sucked for me when I started. I found
much easier reading at RED Hat's site and the numerous "newsier" type Linux
sites. (I still refer to these sites)
Once you basically understand a specific command, the MAN and INFO pages are
fine.
You obviously understand more than any beginner and shouldn't have a really
hard time getting this running. It's my opinion though, just do a custom
install and install everything once and make sure it all works with your
hardware.

assuming they employed a buffer overrun concerning ftp and assuming that

obviously, if u cant tell already your way of thinking is not the best

I just installed glib 1.2.8 and gtk 1.2.8 and fixed the above errors
(when ./configuring Pan) with very little trouble.
the glib-config that ./configure is finding doesn't know how to find its
associated libraries that you installed.
if you run /sbin/ldconfig the libs that were just installed should be
loaded into memory (i believe that's how it works). I think that is
what i did to fix the above error. It seemed to work for both glib and gtk.

Are you using a network printer box with the lpd protocol? This setup
often runs into trouble because the printer box can't handle status
