Well, the only potential trouble I can see with this is
having dos and ext2 partitions mixed within the extended. I
know lots of people have no trouble with it, but every time
I've ever tried it I've had Windows scandisk and defrag
stomp all over those ext2s. I have a similar layout to what
you have but I've chosen to keep the extended as all ext2
and make it type 85 (Linux extended), and to keep my dos
partitions all on primaries. (I know, some people say you
can't do this but it works great for me.) So, for me, I'd
make hda5 and 6 in that table hda3 and 4 but to each his
own, I guess. To wit:
hda1 - 1 - 153 - 1228941 - 6 - dos
hda2 - 664 - 1653 - 7952238 - 85 - Linux extended
hda3 - 154 - 408 - 2048256 - 6 - dos
hda4 - 409 - 663 - 2048256 - 6 - dos
hda5 - 664 - 676 - 104391 - 82 - Linux swap
hda6 - 677 - 680 - 32098 - 83 - Linux native
(/boot)
hda7 - 681 - 1653 - 7815591 - 83 - Linux native
(/)
In fact, I'd advise you to make a couple of more ext2s in
that extended to have /home and /usr/local on separate
partitions.

Okay - I've got Apache 1.0.0 running on my Slackware 96 Linux system - bit
of an odd one this - I run httpd -f [configpath] and httpd gets up and
running - I've told it (in srm.conf) that the document root is
/www/vhtdocs - this directory has a completely blank document in it called
index.html.
Then I go into X and launch arena web browser and point it at
http://ns.equaliser.net (me) and it serves up the following page:-
This is /usr/libs/httpd/htdocs/index.html - - a sample HTML page. You'll
probably want to replace this with the starting page for your web server.
Problem [1] this is not where I told Apache to look
Problem [2] beyond /usr/lib/, the rest of the directory path above doesn't
even exist on my machine.

Fat 16 only supports up to 2Gb. That's where you messed up.

You mean 998 free? That would make sense as fat 16 supports 2gb.

Win98 wiped out your lilo installation. It normally does that becuase
it is jealous of other operating systems. You will need to tell your
rescue disk where the root partition is by passing something like
'linux root=/dev/hda3' at the boot prompt. Then you can get in and run
lilo and you will be able to boot linux normally.
>Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?
After getting lilo fixed you can recreate the partition as a fat32 and
reinstall windows on it.

If you just want to read Japanese in Netscape, you don't need to install
anything, at least for RedHat. Got to Edit/Prefenrence, choose a font

You need to pass the -h switch to whereever rlogind is called. This is
usually /etc/inetd.conf. You should have a line like
login stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.rlogind
just add the -h switch:
login stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.rlogind -h
but it is extremely insecure. You have been warned.

Hallo,
first of all SCSI is a block oriented interface. This means that every SCSI
device only uses continously rising block numbers for adressing.
But standard PC BIOS and most OS only support a Cylinder/Head/Sector
adressing in boot-up and partition table for compatibility reasons, so the
SCSI hostadapter has to map a CHS-setting to block adress.
Unfortunately different manufacturers used different mappings, so if you
want to use one SCSI harddisk on more than one adapter, you have to format
it connected to the least flexible (in most cases the ADAPTEC one).
F.E. all NCR-Interfaces are able to use an ADAPTEC generated mapping, but
not the other way ...
Back to his problem:
As a boot message appered, I guess the Kernel was loaded correct ..
So start up the system with a recovery-disk (the should be described a way
to do this in your RedHat manuals) and set up a Kernel for your new System.

John,
I had the same thing with my adaptec aha1542 card.
The simple solution I found worked was the line
"post-install scsi_mod /sbin/insmod aha1542"
added in /etc/conf.modules
This was adapted from a 'pre-install...' line for the sound module so
I found the 'post-install' install option and thought "what the hey,
worth a shot". What it appears to do is tell the module "if loading
scsi_mod then load aha1542 afterwards".
Of course in your case the aha1542 becomes aha152x.
I reckon this'll fix you! I can now happily click on 'scan' in xscanimage
and that requires 'sg', which in turn requires 'scsi_mod' and once
scsi_mod is loaded aha1542 gets loaded. Whether aha1542 gets loaded in
between scsi_mod and sg or kinda in parallel with sg I'm not sure but it
works reliably so I have other things to do than worry too much about it
8-)
