Hello Giles,
you could mute some of your sound-sources (micro, line-in, video) with
alsamixer. I am getting strange noises from my TV-Card through line-in.

FDISK:
Which fdisk are you using, Microsofts, or the Linux one?
I use Ranish Partition Manager, works really well. Better than fdisk.
http://www.users.intercom.com/~ranish/part/
LILO:
Lilo can be setup from within Linux, use 'man lilo' and 'man lilo.conf' from
command line to find out how it works. You have to specify where lilo will
be installed (what boot record) by using the setting 'boot = /dev/hd?', for
mine I wanted lilo in the Master Boot Record, so I used: 'boot = /dev/hda'.
I also recommend you use 'prompt' as one of the settings also and 'default =
???' and 'image = ???' and 'name = ???' and 'root = ???' - see 'man
lilo.conf'.
1. Edit lilo.conf
2. Run from command line 'lilo' to install it.
3. Reboot to see if you get the 'LILO boot:' prompt.
BOOTING:
I think the /boot directory has be with the first 1024 cylinders (8MB) of
disk, that's all. You can have / mounting anywhere, but /boot must be within
this limit.

Subject: [LILO] "linear" - explanation
Date: Fri, 28 Jul 2000 14:10:19 +0200
Hi all
I did post a message this about a Lilo problem (LI )
It was not due to a /boot partition after cylinder 1024,
nor a MBR related problem. After few research in the old
messages I found out that adding the word "linear" in the
/etc/lilo.conf helped. And actually it did help a lot since
my box is now booting properly.
However, few questions remain.
1. Could somebody explain (more than the man page :) what
is this "linear" meaning ?
2. I noticed that "LILO boot" is (at least) displayed on
startup, but that the kernel is loading pretty slow now.
Is this "slowliness" efficient only during boot time or
will my machine run slow all the time ?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Jerome

Your problem is that Windows will only boot from what it thinks is
the C: drive (first bootable drive). It is my understanding that boot
managers like System Commander (and perhaps boot magic) will do their
own version of fdisk to allow the second Windows to boot. Your best bet
may be to verify this for a particular boot manager and purchase that
manager. SC seems to pick up more accolades, but BM comes with
Partition Magic which is a wonderful tool for reorganizing your
partitions.
BTW, Linux works much better with a swap partition, and you may want
a few other partitions as you gain experience.

pppd needs hardware access, only possible from a root account apparently.

I never fixed this because because I used pam.d to provide access to a root
script that would ( as root) run pppd , all from the command line.

I don't know. But follow the advice in glitch's post .
> B. What is the SUID bit, anyway?
It is a premission bit which indicates that a program can change it's user
and group id's,
instead of r-x you see r-s .
For example , say you just banged out a script to do something for you. now
before you execute it you have to mark it as executable by uing the command
chmod +u+x myscript.
Likewise for suid.

You have installed lilo into the /boot partition.
But the active partition is still w2k.
use fdisk or any other partitioning tool to set your /boot partition as
active.
Next, "Unhide" the w2k boot partition, if it becomes hidden, or the nt
loader will freeze half way into booting nt saying that it can't access nt
or something.

I have read and saved for future reference the original and four
responses. As my situation is somewhat similar I would like to continue
with another question or two.
I am thinking of adding a removable hard drive adapter to my Pentium 233
mmx machine and have a 212Mb hard drive that I would like to use for
learning about Linux. I have 16Mb RAM on that machine.
A friend already installed Linux (I think it was Red Hat) on a partitio of
my 540Mb hd on my main machine, (Cyrix 686 100 P120 with 64mb ram)
but it crippled the operation of some of my hardware/software so I deleted
it ALL - and therefor the reason for looking at the removable hard drive.
Also it might be moved between the two machines.
I do not want the GUI now although I *may* want it six month from now and
want to do an install that will put on the hard drive ONLY the things that
I want now - NO "someday you will want this so here it is now" files!
I already have the following CDs:
Slackware 7.0 Install disk
Slackware 7.0 Source disk
Linux Mandrake 6.1 i586 bootable
Sam's "Teach Yourself Linux in 24 Hours" which I think includes RedHat
Any suggestions on how I might install a kernel (and which one, if there
would be differences in the distros that I have) and a few learning tools
like the "manual" files - and then add from there - on the 212 hd?
All advice, including criticism, welcome - as long as it doesn't mean
spending scarce dollars.

I installed Mandrake 7.1 on my system yesterday (Asus T2P4 (HX)
motherboard, K6-3, 128M, Adaptec 29160N, 2 IBM 18G Ultra 160s,
Plextor 12/4/32 CDR, Voodoo 3 3000, Netgear Ethernet, PCI 128),
and it failed (several times) at the bootloader step - it could not
write the LILO (or Grub) boot record. I tried it in all three
modes (auto/custom/expert). There was no indication of a specific
error. Since the SCSI stuff is new, I reinstalled 7.0 just to
be sure it wasn't the new hardware, and it wasn't.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Hi,
I think i found the problem, if you remember my first post
(in comp.os.linux.setup, "how to setup CHAP for a free isp?")
when i took about an small program for w98 to login to this
free isp? I just have tested this program to figure out what
it does, since in w98 the scriptfile doesnt work, and ...
When i change my username or password to a wrong one and dial
to isp, the program then stops and asks me to correct them,
displaying :(asuming my username is myuserid in this test,
i change my "myuserid" to "myuserid00")
username: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
password: 4cb274f0830a3c4876607fbd10e0ba4
well, first, it seems like the program add the isp dns as my
"real" username; second, my password also was changed to an
unreadable string. I went to the program's folder and found
a file named trans.dat looks like this:

3B10BFCDA4850C435B2915E2BEDA99785228184FA396B69D62252802
So my guess is the username and password they gave me are
not real, but sirve as key to determine the real password
to login, and the real password is encryped in trans.dat.
opinion?
Anyway, thanks you, again :)

> Choose a name for the remote end, e.g. "my_isp" and change your entry
in

to my_isp.

help.
