Do either 1) or 2)
1) Switch to a lower user level to fix your problem.
i.e. If you are on level 5 switch to level 4 or lower to fix your problem
# init 4 # service that is causing the problem is shut down at level 4.
Once it is fixed go back to the normal level
# init 5 # restore the service.
2) Shut down the service causing the problem and fix the problem and
restart the service.
# cd /etc/rc5.d # assume we are at level 5
# ./K12some_service # shut down that service
# fix_the_problem
# ./S34some_service # restart that service

In that case, the method is easy: simply unmount /cdrom before

How are you writing this CD? cdrecord, or one of its front-ends? And
do dmesg or /var/log/messages show anything odd happening when you start
to burn the CD? cdrecord may try to set itself to near-realtime
priority (nice -19 or so) when it shouldn't. (Check the output of "top"
while cdrecord is running.) Frontends like XCDRoast may have a switch
you can flip to make cdrecord run at normal priority. If cdrecord is
hogging the CPU, then said CPU will be hard-pressed to handle the
near-constant stream of IRQs that a modem generates.
Also check what "cat /proc/interrupts" says regarding the secondary IDE
scontroller. Some drives generate a lot more IRQs than others. HTH,

Oracle8i on Linux is freely downloadable. AFAIK from reading the
license agreement, you are allowed to use the downloadable version for
development and testing. If you deploy it, you have to shell out some
cash. IIRC the downloadable version is limited to 4 or 8 simultaneous
connections and the restriction is lifted when you pay money and get
some sort of magic binary that unlocks the database.
The whole thing is a bit of a pain in the arse to install. Do yourself
a favor and forget the !SHINY! graphical configuration tools; they
segfault if you look at them crosseyed. Once the install is done, you
can do almost all the configging you need to do with text files in
$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/ . Make sure to set the ORA_NLS33
environment variable for the "oracle" user to the right thing; if you
don't do that, the error messages are so misleading as to be criminal.
And make sure that Oracle starts before Apache at boot time if you wish
to run Apache+{PHP,mod_perl} with Oracle as the backend.

You need to run 'mkinitrd' to create a new boot image in the /boot

nope. been there, asked that. although sometimes breaking parts of the

Subject: I would like to register a complaint ...
Date: Tue, 03 Apr 2001 01:45:12 -0400
I realize this isn't the argument clinic, but I would like to register a
complaint.
There is a very fundemental concept in the DOS/Windows world of being
able to format a partition, after which you can begin again compiling
data into that empty but very much functional partition. WHY DOESN'T
LINUX HAVE AN EQUIVALENT COMMAND/FUNCTION???
Sorry for the big letters but I am now extremely frustrated over Linux's
apparent inability to clear a partition of all its data and to be able
to just simply begin again. Instead, it appears that you have to jump
through a bunch of hoops and all of which I have not yet found.
Without getting into the why's and what for's, formatting a partition in
the DOS/Windows world is a legimate and useful function when it is the
desired thing to do.
Is there anybody out there that knows enough about Linux/Unix
filesystems that can tell me why this function is not available and if
it is what is it?
It looks like I am going to have to use Linux's fdisk to change the what
"root sector??" of the partition to tell the DOS format function that it
is a FAT32 filesystem even when it is not but just so it will format it
in such a way that I can reuse it. After the DOS format is done
clearing the partition I will then have to change the partitions "ID"
back to Linux native and use the mke2fs to remake the ext2 filesystem.
At that point I should have clean and empty ext2 partition. So far this
is the only thing I can think of to achieve this desire goal. I tried
at the suggestion of someone in this newsgroup to use:
dd if=/dev/zero 0f=/dev/hdxX : where hdxX is a partition but this
apparently write zeros over everything including important locations
such as what makes up a superblock that Linux apparently very much
needs. This superblock needs to be recreated but the ext2 partition is
just not the same after that. Something is a miss when doing this
method.
Is there any body out there who knows enough to give me a workable
solution. I just can't understand why Linux does not perform this very
simple yet powerful function over its own filesystem.
Please, please, please. Anybody.

It did some more research, and found out that they're actually located in
the kernel header files.... I wish I could tell you guys (and girls???) what
they really are, but I'm a bit in the dark also. I think the only thing they
do is setting some parameters for the kernel, which determine the max no. of
processes, and some memory management issues, etc (shared mem stuff).
They're located in: /usr/src/linux/include/asm/ahmparam.h (for the
parameters) and /usr/src/linux/sem.h (for the semaphores). So now you know
;-) I guess I really don't have to tell you that after setting these
parameters/semaphores you need to recompile the kernel....
I'd like to thank you for all your input,
