Quoting Easwar Hariharan:
Hi, I have had a prety bad experience with Mandriva 07.I have lost THREE luser accounts and all my docs,pics and music twice coz the third time today,I used a Knoppix 5.0 live CD.The typical error message is that the $HOME/._dmrc file or something like that is being ignored coz either i either don't own my HOME or it does not exist at all! Another paradox is that when I login to mandriva with root (/root) as my home directory,my /home is empty except for an empty lost+found folder but
An empty directory with a lost+found is generally seen for an empty partition.. perhaps the /home that you see from mandriva and the one you see from knoppix are different..
Compare the output of the "mount" and "df -h" command.. in both cases. -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
