I have a Dell Inspiron 7500 laptop and I am trying to set it up to dual-boot
Linux and Windows 2000 Pro. I fdisk'd the entire HD (12GB) and separated it
into 2 partitions. I installed Windows 2000 on the second partion and then
installed Linux (v.6.2) on the first partition. W2K worked fine before the
Linux install but after the Linux install, I did the only options I had at
the LILO boot was Linux. Can anyone help me with what I am doing wrong?
What do I have to do to get the boot loader to see the W2K install?

Slackware has a distro called Big Slack. Basically you pull down the zip
files, and extract them into c:\linux. Then you can either reboot and go to
a DOS prompt, and run it from there, or just do a restart into MS-DOS mode.
Be advised though, that there was no support USB, which is why I don't have
it on my machine right now.

Hello,
I would like to know how to configure the network attachment to force th

Is it possible using ifconfig or configuration files ?
I'm using RedHat 6.2

Hello.
Apologies if this is a really basic question. I have compiled a new
kernel in order to include the drivers of my new CD writer.
Unfortunately, when I run lilo to build up the system I get the message
"kernel too big". It occurs when I use zImage to compile the kernel and
also when I use bzImage. Could you help me to solve this problem?
Thanks a lot,

Dear Linux gurus!
I am having problems in trying to configure services. I have bought a book
called Red Hat Linux 6 Server and the book does not provide the information
I need.
I am familiar with Unix internal concepts. I have not been in touch with
Unix for more than 4 years already. Now I am trying to pick up Linux. I
could not find resources that could really help me to configure the system.
For instance, I need to start ftpd server which Red hat did not do it when I
install from CD. I need to set up the network. I need to configure my
internal IOMegazip and etc. All the administration stuffs.
Where can I get good documentation that can guide me? Would appreciate if
someone can point to me which book is the best for me to start.
Thanks a lot

I read something about this on a linux.redhat newsgroup. Apparently some
portion of the RAM is used for something else (store a copy of BIOS I
think). Because of this, you don't have the entire 128M. I don't
remember the exact number.

do a make mrproper; make xconfig and recheck what kernel parameters you
want; but this time, don't include so many things into the kernel; have them
load as modules. The kernel too large problem comes from having too many
things included in the kernel. I'd also check what the help says; you prolly
won't need that many things included in the kernel anyway; i think the
largest you can have it is about 1M, mine's ~ 450k; load most things as
modules (easier configurable that way anyway). make dep; make bzImage; make
modules; make modules_install.

I agree on the Abit Mobo, I got my KT7A w/ tbird 900 and it was a snap to
clock up to 1Ghz @ 133 on the bus (whats the point of 133 memory on a
100mhz bus?) I've had no problems with speed, overheating (not even
close), or compiling. I do not know how well Linux support the KT7A-Raid
but for $20 more you can get that instead. I'd read up on the Highpoint
Controller used on that Mobo before picking the raid board over the
standard KT7A.
I HIGHLY recommend an AMD approved cooling fan, even at
it's standard clock rate, a thunderbird will fry in a matter of seconds
with bad/no cooling mechanism.
I also recommend name brand memory.... cheap stuff doesn't cut the
cake....
The cost for my abit board and processor was well below the $300 mark but
I paid for it in service (first board was DOA and despite being A+
certified for 3 years, not to mention the rest of my tech background, I
had to ship all the way to CA and wait 3 weeks to get it back, no cross
ship allowed :( )

I think you will have to send some parameters during the initialization
of the driver. Probabily into the eth0-cfg file into /etc/network.conf
directory (I'm not sure about the directory name).
See also the NetX-HOWTO (where X is the last version) on

If you have installed a "workstation" you need to add inetd and ftpd to your
system. Simply install the required rpm from your distributions. After the
ftpd you will have to "awake" the inetd deamon (kill -HUP).

On www.linuxdoc.org you will found a lot of HOWTOs and other FAQs that
will be enough (I suppose) to solve your problems.

Never use just ntpdate, ntpdate sets the time 'hard' and doesn't set the

IIRC, OS/2's HPFS bootsector contains a pointer to the mini-FSD
(OS2LDR?) which in turn allows access to the kernel, BASEDEV's
etc. In linux, lilo's boot record contains a pointer to the
kernel location or initrd which in turn will load the filesystem
support. What do you see as the advantage to having a mini-FSD
for linuix?

Sounds like you blew away the W2K bootloader and replaced it with LILO. Bad.
The Windows bootloader can boot both Lose2K and Linux. You must use
it instead of LILO. (Actually, I think you don't /have/ to, but it's
dangerous and silly not to.)
> What do I have to do to get the boot loader to see the W2K install?
Read the W2K+Linux howtos on linuxdoc. Actually, the one that I found most
useful was the mini-howto for NT+Linux, since W2K is just "NT 5.0" as far
as this procedure is concerned. I boot both Lose2K and Linux all the time.
Basically, what you should have done was (going from memory):
1) Install W2K. Let it do the booting. It's very picky. Go figure.
2) Install Linux. Do not overwrite the bootloader. Install the
bootsector on one of the partitions instead of the main drive thingy.
Make a boot floppy; you will need to use the boot floppy to get to
Linux until this is all finished.
3) Extract the 512-byte bootsector to a file; copy the file to a floppy.
4) Boot Lose2K. Copy the bootsector file to the windows partition;
now you have two bootsectors sitting side by side, one per OS. Edit
the boot.ini file as described by the howto.
5) The next time you boot, the Windows bootloader menu thingy will
pop up; the choices depend on the text you used in the boot.ini. On
my machine, they are
- Windows 2000 Professional
- Linux 2001 Sortof Professional
with the default after 30 seconds going to Linux.
Once you choose Linux, then you'll get to the regular boot prompts, because
the bootsector file that you copied across will know how to look at the
Linux partitions.
I'm probably leaving something out due to lack of sleep.
Luck++;

Well, to me seems that the problem is in the "CPUID serial number",
try to recompile the kernel without this feature.
BTW, I knew that only original INTEL cpu had the CPUID...

Rene,
Try to reinstall (update) the system from the original CD-ROM, or over the net.
If it works after this, it means that you chose some wrong parameters when you
compiled the kernel, or you forgot some steps, like compiling the modules, the
image file (initrd-*.*.*.img), or to run lilo.
If it still doesn't work, I suggest you lookup the support on Red Hat's web
site. I know that RH 7.0 came out with a lot of bugs, and this may be one of
them.
Hope this helps.

I guess that your system's clock is set to GMT. Run 'setup' as root, choose
timezone configuration ,and un-check "Hardware clock set to GMT" in case
it's checked.

Subject: Can't get sound working in 2.4.2
Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2001 12:43:00 -0500
I'm stumped. I've read through the sound-HOWTO to no avail.
I have on-board sound with my Intel OR840 motherboard which uses the
AD1881 IC. My kernel configuration for the sound is:
Include "Sound card support"
Module "Intel ICH (i8xx) audio support
When the compiled 2.4.2 boots up, there are no "FAILED" messages in
regards to sound. If I run the /usr/sbin/sndconfig command, it returns:
"You don't seem to be running a kernel with modular sound enabled.
(soundcore.o was not found in the module search path). . ."
What should I do?
Thanks,
Marc
