Well, that was way more than $0.02 worth. I follow your analogy. You were
right about not needing to put zeros on every sector. It does make the
partition unreadable in two ways. One it destroys the organization, like
you said but also like you said that can be repaired with mke2fs. But you
are also left with the rest of the partition as one file full of zeros.
There is no space left on the partition and no way as far as I know to
delete the huge file full of zeros with Linux. So the partition is
basically still unusable. mke2fs won't help now because it is passive when
it comes to data and rm -rf * won't help when the huge file IS the entire
partition.
After doing "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdxX", of which I was advised by
someone, I had to actually use the DOS format command to "clear" this
data. That required deleting the Linux partitions using Linux fdisk then
creating a DOS extended partition using DOS fdisk. Then I formatted the
partition with DOS. Went back to Linux fdisk to re-setup the Linux
partitions on this hard drive and ran mke2fs on them. Now I was back to a
"pristeen" condition with my Linux partitions.
The moral of the story is don't use /dev/zero to clear an entire
partition. You are then certainly in for more than you bargained. Whoever
gave me that advice, thanks alot .... NOT.
As I said in another post in the /misc newsgroup, as it turns out what
I was looking for was "rm -rf *". This cleared out all the partition's old
data and left the fs intact. It was ready to be filled with the new data.
I just didn't have a good enough understanding of Linux's command structure
vs. its filesystem. Based on some of the advice I got about this, I'm not
the only one :-)

True, but if you only had one OS on a system, you could use any
partition table format you like - ala BSD schemes. It's only because
people like to dual boot and be compatible with DOS/Windows that the
PC standard partition tables are used.
(One might say that PC partition tables are brain dead and illogical,
but then I'd have to counter that using partition "c" to refer to the
entire disk is pretty wacky too.)

Our computer was running Windows 98 and it was protected by Adaptecs GoBack.
My son installed another hard drive and installed Linux-Mandrake 7.2 on it
without disabling GoBack. Linux would boot up automaticaly and you could not
boot into Windows. My son then tried to remove lilo by running fdisk /mbr.
Now nothing will boot. Fdisk shows the old drive now as a non dos partition
and I can not access it.Is there anyway I can get Windows back so I can
retrieve all my data that is on the drive? I thought about reformating and
starting over from scratch but I found out that the backup cd's I made ended
up in my sons car and were warped by the sun destroying them. Needless to
say my son no longer has access to my computer. Is there any way to retrieve
my files or restore the drive to the way it was before?

To save time, I will not give you all the options. But one is to get
Findpart at http://inet.uni2.dk/~svolaf/utilities.htm, do
findpart all fp.txt
and insert the text from fp.txt in a follow-up to this message. Using
fp.sys from the same page, you can see the content of the partition in
pure DOS.

You've named it: Partition Magic. It doesn't run in Linux, but it comes
with a DOS boot floppy image that lets you run it from a DOS boot and
resize and move Linux ext2fs and swap partitions.
The native Linux utility resize2fs does part of what PM does, but
resize2fs uses a much cruder and more error-prone user interface.
Note that these tools are all potentially dangerous; don't resize a
partition unless you back it up first (or are willing to risk completely
losing it). Also, you may need an emergency boot system, like a DOS
floppy with LOADLIN and a working kernel, because when you resize or
move a partition, you may end up moving the kernel file, which will
invalidate your LILO, rendering the boot partition unbootable.

The release notes were never released with the 2.2.19
kernel. Both kernel series are being worked on. Even
the 2.0 series is being worked on.

Hi, All Friends :
My Question is :
Provide user a unix/linux shell account and a home directory, for
security reason,
after logging into the system, he can traverse no other system directories
but his own homedirectory(all the file and dirs under his HOME DIRECTORY).
What i Have done is :
1. copy /etc,/lib,/bin,/sbin,/usr/bin,/usr/sbin,/etc/skel,/lib,/usr/lib
these dirs under the "/" to
the corresponding home dir
2. running CHROOT command like:
chroot $USERHOMEDIR /bin/sh
3. then what should i do next ?
I have tried to replace the user'shell with a new one which contains
the following command:
sudo chroot $HOMEDIRECTORY /bin/sh
Is this the best effiecient way to achieve the goal ? or any other
alternative way except modifying
the linux login souce code?
Any Help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I am trying to view an NTFS (Win NT 4) partition with RedHat 7.0 with

1. The NTFS partition mounts correctly in console as root - I can cd and view
the directory structure and files in that partition.
2. When I run MC and try to view the same partition - I can't see
ANYTHING (Yes I am navigating to the right place in the filesystem)
3. When I exit MC and run X (Gnome 1.0) - I still can't see anything with
GMC.
4. When I run a console in X - no problem! I can cd and see everything
etc in the console session.
Anyone have any ideas what is going on?

Allo people,
Okay, I blew it. I admit it. I extended the root partition via partition
magic software, and somehow, I can't any longer boot the Linux 6.0 OS from
the floppy boot disk. Normally, if I modify or copy the partition, the
floppy works, but this time, no luck. Of course, LILO is on /dev/hda6, and
not hda5. I normally type: linux root=/dev/hda6 to gain access to the root
partition. No luck . I just receive: 0X10 error.
Any ideas, before I loose all my data by having to reinstall Linux 6.0. I
thought of resintalling by upgrading, but it can't locate my root partition.
The install interface only seems to want to point to hda5(of hdc? -- what's
this).

Has anyone ever done a kickstart from cdrom that worked?
(And if this is an RTFM, could some kind soul point me at the right FM
to R?)
I want to load/configure redhat 6.2 using kickstart on some systems
that don't have floppies or network connections.
I tried burning a cdrom with a ks.cfg file in the top level directory
and using it to install. At the install/rescue/recover/update prompt
I tried all sorts of things to get it to use the ks.cfg file,
including:
linux ks=hd:hdc/ks.cfg # the cdrom is hdc
linux ks=cdrom
Problem is, nothing different seems to happen from a normal
installation.
Two Questions:
1. Is there special juju needed to kickstart from a cdrom? Do
I need to build my own bootcd.img or something else non-obvious?
2. How do I debug a ks.cfg file?

First IMHO there are very, very few valid reasons that make such
eleborate chroot schemes necessary. There is little harm in allowing
users to see the layout of your system, they can't modify anything.
Just close the home directories of your users to all ut their owners
and all privacy will be assured.
Besides, you don't need to be affraid unskilled users abuse that
information, and skilled ones can, when they are determined, break out
of chroot contructions.
But instead of doing all the above, search on http://freshmeat.net for a
restricted shell, or read the documentation of the bash shell, since
when you start the bash shell with the option restricted or as rbash
(symlink to bash) you get (from the man page) :
RESTRICTED SHELL
If bash is started with the name rbash, or the -r option
is supplied at invocation, the shell becomes restricted.
A restricted shell is used to set up an environment more
controlled than the standard shell. It behaves identi-
cally to bash with the exception that the following are
disallowed or not performed:
o changing directories with cd
o setting or unsetting the values of SHELL, PATH,
ENV, or BASH_ENV
o specifying command names containing /
o specifying a file name containing a / as an argu-
ment to the . builtin command
o Specifying a filename containing a slash as an
argument to the -p option to the hash builtin com-
mand
o importing function definitions from the shell envi-
ronment at startup
o parsing the value of SHELLOPTS from the shell envi-
ronment at startup
o redirecting output using the >, >|, <>, >&, &>, and
>> redirection operators
o using the exec builtin command to replace the shell
with another command
o adding or deleting builtin commands with the -f and
-d options to the enable builtin command
o specifying the -p option to the command builtin
command
o turning off restricted mode with set +r or set +o
restricted.
These restrictions are enforced after any startup files are read.
When a command that is found to be a shell script is executed
(see COMMAND EXECUTION above), rbash turns off any restrictions
in the shell spawned to execute the script.
Simply setting some restrictive defaults for PATH and you'll get quite
far. fi PATH=/usr/bin/restricted
And /usr/bin/restricted has a number of symlinks to the only
commands/programs the unfortunate user may use. Make sure that the
partition with the home-directories is mounted with the noexec option,
that will prevent users from downloading, installing and running their
own binaries and scripts .
