Hi folks,
I'm running Redhat 6.1 with a USR sportster 33.6 internal modem. I've got
all the details on the modem and connecting to my ISP. Can someone explain
or point me to a procedure that'll help me get connected?
Thanks,

What you could do is install a minimal ("base") Linux system with floppy
disks which, of course, boots from harddisk. Then you install the
full-fledged distro from CD.
I don"t know how feasible this is with your distribution. I only know
Debian, no sweat there. At any rate you"d still have to have access to
another computer, not necessarily Linux, to create the stack of base
installation disks.

You don't need the ISAPNP-Tools if you haven't enabled PnP Support on
the 3Com-Card...

The IRQ can be read from the card when you provide the IO-Address.

Because EISA allowes auto-detection of the cards and their settings
without conflicts. you don't want to use the EISA-Mode of the 3C509 if
you don't have an EISA-Mainboard.

classic = ISA
for the EISA-Mode you can get the drivers for the 3C579 which is the
native EISA-Version of the 509.

I once had this problem. I can't remember how I solved it, though. It
was most certainly the driver for Windows that had to be a particular
one (one of those ISA/EISA/PnP-Mode drivers).
I'll tell you what: I'll go drop my 3c509 back into my Linux/Win98 box
tonight (I was going to do it anyway), and I'll come back and let you
know how it went...unless someone else out there has an answer before I

Hello, I am a fresh hand in Linux, I was using RH 6.0 and it work fine.
After I upgrade to 6.1, my lan card (3COM 3C509-TPO) cannot be detected by
the kernel any more.
I had check all the configuration like conf.modules, /sysconfig/network and
network-scripts.
IRQ and I/O addr must be OK as I am using it in RH 6.0 before without any
problem.
Please give me some suggestion ? Would this problem be solved in RH 6.2 ?

Kudzu has no use as far as I can tell, you can access the drive just
fine without it.
1) make a directory to mount the disc to, (mkdir /mnt/cdrw)
2) put a cd in the drive ;-)
3) mount it ( mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrw)
ofcourse if you want to mount a disc with another FS on it (UDF eg.),
you'll need to to load a module for it.
BTW. drives are named in standard way in linux:
1st IDE controller Master=/dev/hda
Slave =/dev/hdb
2nd IDE controller Master=/dev/hdc
Slave =/dev/hdd
And whether the drive is a HDD, CDROM, CDRW or whatsoever, this scheme
always applies.

Subject: Help getting HP SureStore Tape 6000 working under Redhat 6.2
Date: 28 Aug 2000 10:16:25 -0400
Greetings,
I have a RH 6.2 machine with an HP SureStore Tape 6000 attached to it
that I had hoped to use for backups. I had planned to use plain ol'
dump for doing this, but things seem not to work as I had hoped, and I'm
a bit stumped. I don't want to get into amanda for a single machine.
So, here's what I have:
# scsi_info /dev/nst0
SCSI_ID="0,4,0"
MODEL="HP C1533A"
FW_REV="9503"
# mt -f /dev/nst0 status
SCSI 2 tape drive:
File number=0, block number=-1, partition=0.
Tape block size 0 bytes. Density code 0x24 (DDS-2).
Soft error count since last status=0
General status bits on (1010000):
ONLINE IM_REP_EN
So, it seems to understand what's there. However, if I do a:
# tar cvf /dev/nst0c tmp
to dump something to the tape, it seems to work fine, but if I then do
# mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind
I get i/o errors, and it doesn't appear to have written anything. Then,
if I look at the status again, it's still at file 0.
Until I can get this working, I'm sure I can't do dumps since I need to
be able to do multiple file systems per tape.
I'm sure I'm doing really stupid, so I'd be very grateful for any help
you might be able to offer. All I want to do is to be able to do dumps
of this machine and a nearby Sun occasionally....
Cheers,

I assume you mean he is running Postfix on FreeBSD and not that
Postfix only runs on FreeBSD since I have Postfix running quite nicely
on Linux (and SCO OSR5).
Anyway, Postfix is awesome. Highly recommended.

I don't know of any other program that could do this, (but I thought PM
could), but I do have something else that may help you.
If your BIOS can access the secondary drive (usually it can, when it's
on the first IDE controller) you do not need to make a /boot on the
first drive.
Linux will boot just fine off the secondary drive, it's less sensitive
in this matter then Windows.

Yes their is, actually, their ARE. But before running to the bookshop,

"Securing and Optimizing Red Hat Linux" and "Linux System Administrating

How are you mounting it?

mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

Kudzu just initializes the support, but the rest you should do by
yourself. First of all, read the CD-writing-HOWTO
(http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO.html). They'll explain
how to set it up for CD-writing. In short, you have to make linux
simulate the CD-recorder as it was a SCSI-CD-writer. Why? Because then
all the software that is made for Linux to write CD's doesn't have to be
alted for SCSI or IDE: now it's all SCSI. If you find the HOWTO rather
difficult, don't hesitate to ask questions.
Oh, the scripts that the HOWTO mentions, YOU DON'T HAVE TO EXECUTE THEM
(RedHat 6.2 has all the necessary devices built-in). The only thing you
should do its coock a new kernel (with SCSI-support, scsi-ide-support,
SCSI-CD-support, ...) and update your lilo.conf. Sounds confusing? Don't
be scared, it's all easy (and in the HOWTO).

Then this really wouldn't be a Linux installer, but rather some sort
of meta installer that knows how to write native installers for
various OSes (ie, you're never going to be a part of the Windows world
unless you use InstallShield [think SMS]).

Sure it would: Just get everyone to use NeXT-style bundles.
