There are several options. One of them would be to loop-mount the iso's to /cdrom and use apt-cdrom. The downside would be that you need to switch the mounted iso (though most of the needed stuff should be on DVD 1). There should be other methods, but I don't know them. Try the apt-howto.

Howto use dvd iso-images for package installation
Hello, I'm running a basic workstation etch 4.0r1, X running, installed by booting a netinst image (with installgui option) and then downloading the basic stuff the installer downloads automatically. I have complete etch 4.0r1 dvd iso-images (all three) on an another hard drive. The question is how am I able to take advantage of these isos on the hd, i.e. how can I get my hand on the packages in them. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Disk usage
Hi, I guess minor problem of mixing 1000 base and 1024 base units has been pointed but the difference is not about 3%. But 9.7GB vs 17GB used. I tried it myself :-) In my case, "du -hs /" is about 28G while "df -h" is about 18G for / and 11GB on /mnt. In your case "du..." is about 10G while "df..." is about 17G (in 18GB partition). > > Why is du telling me that I'm using 9.7G of the disk while df says I'm using > over 17G? That is strange. Can you check using command I used? Did you resize partition lately? What is the output of "mount"? Anyway, if df is correct, your system is too full.

Re: Linux Printer Sharing
Hi all. I've a Etch machine that acts also as a print server. In my laptop is installed a lenny, and in my wife laptop, win XP pro (:-(). I have 2 printers configured in my server (one usb port and one lpt port). I have NOT installed samba on my server (well, really it's installed, but not configured to share printers!). I have configured both in my laptop using CUPS and pointing the to the server (for example: http://my_server:631/printers/my_printer_name). In the XP laptop i use the Adobe Postscript Driver and configure in the way described above. Of course, in my server i have modified the cups configuration file (etc/cups/cupsd.conf) to allow the connection from other hosts. Anyway, i agree with Ron & Steve, SAMBA should be the better way to do that job. For win machine you can use also the "cupsaddsmb" utility to automagic install!! Hope it helps you! Bye

"smart" refers to resolving dependencies by installing additional packages or removing software, as opposed to simply not installing packages that would require such actions. If you are using unstable (which, given the fact that you are using update-manager "often", it would be logical to conclude you are), then you should wait a few days for missing dependencies or updated packages to be uploaded to the archive. FWIW, I have pidgin installed and there are no problems I am aware of.

Re: Best way to install second version of Debian?

The step I'm worried about is the final one: i.e. how to manage the boot subsequently without losing access to the existing partitions. Any pointers to documentation, or advice please? You will be asked if you want to install a boot manager. Don't, then at the end of the installation, boot into the 'master' OS, the one which installed the current grub bootloader, then edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to add the new OS. It should be reasonably obvious what is needed, but menu.lst will contain the list of documentation, which may not be the same in all installations. It is fairly well commented. Generally use the same options as the existing OS entries, unless you know otherwise, and avoid any section which is auto-generated. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Best way to install second version of Debian?
I want to install a second version of Debian on a spare partition of my HDD (can't have too much of a good thing ...). Currently I have /dev/sda1 as Sidux, /dev/sda3 as Ubuntu. I want to put Debian on /dev/sda8. The step I'm worried about is the final one: i.e. how to manage the boot subsequently without losing access to the existing partitions.

SOLVED: Always falling to grub prompt
Finally my problem is solved. The problem was that I had to reinstall grub in the MBR of the first disk, *telling it that /boot was in a different partition*. I booted from a LiveCD (I was using GParted's one, as it booted faster than the rescue option of Debian's LiveCD, and I had to boot quite a few times in the last hours), then typed "grub". This led to the grub prompt. I set the root device to (hd1,0), since this is the boot partition (where grub/stage1 file is): grub> root (hd1,0) And then I install grub in the MBR of *the first disk*, where Windows is installed, and quit the grub shell: grub> setup (hd0) grub> quit Then reboot, and... voila, the grub menu I was missing so much, after one week of absense. All my kernels and Windows are booting normally, and I'm very happy. Thanks to all those of you who helped. It was really difficult to be sure what to do just by browsing the web. Two particularly useful websites were the grub manual, http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Installing-GRUB-natively.html#Installing-GRUB-natively, and http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/kb/article.php?id=232 Anyway, for the record, for anyone browsing the web, here is a "short" summary of this adventure :-) 1. Initial setup: hda : cdrom hdc1 : Windows partition in first disk (10G) hdd1 : Linux bootable partition in second disk (160G) hdd2 : Linux swap in second disk 2. The problem: Some kernel upgrade left the system unbootable. Booting with the new kernel led to Error 18 (more cylinders than BIOS can manage). Old kernel booted. Subsequent kernel upgrades and playing with menu.lst completed the mess. In the end, I had two kernels (the oldest and the newest) booting, and two kernels with Error 18. None of them booted normally, though, and I always got the grub prompt. I had to manually give "root", "kernel", "initrd" and "boot" commands at the prompt, to boot. 3. The diagnostics: As someone pointed out, kernels and menu.lst must have been written beyond the zone visible by the BIOS, so after months of normal operation, suddenly I could not boot. 4. Solution (first step): Following suggestions from this list, I left a small boot partition at the beginning of /dev/hdd. I used GParted Live CD 0.3.4-8, which was able (amazingly) to move the beginning of the /dev/hdd1 partition. I left 500 M free. With GParted, I set it as ext3. After "executing pending actions", which meant 1h40m of waiting until the resize of hdd1 completed, I had a new "/dev/hdd3" partition at the beginning of the 160G disk. Then I set the bootable flag on it, also with GParted. Now open a terminal, and followed the suggestions I received: - Mounted both partitions, /dev/hdd3 as /mnt/new-part and /dev/hdd1 as /mnt/old-part. - Copy /mnt/old-part/boot/* to /mnt/new-part - Moved /mnt/old-part/boot to /mnt/old-part/old-boot, then mkdir /mnt/old-part/boot [probably not necessary?]. - Edit /mnt/old-part/fstab (see later for the final setup that works) - Umount /mnt/new-part, remount on /mnt/old-part/boot - Chroot into /mnt/old-part - Edited menu.lst (see later for the final setup that works) I rebuilt initrd's: update-initramfs -k "all" -u 5. Solution (second, probably unnecessary, step) The previous procedure didn't work, and I was still left with an unbootable system. It failed with "Error 15", and not even got a grub prompt. I thought there was a problem with partition order, and I fixed that. fstab and menu.lst were edited accordingly, and that's the setup that is working now, but I don't think this step was necessary. Anyway: fdisk /dev/hdd Used commands: m (menu), p (print partition table), x (extra functionality), f (fix partition order), w (write partition table to disk) Final /etc/fstab: /dev/hdd2/ ext3defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/hdd1/boot ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 2 /dev/hdd3none swap sw 0 0 [other lines] Final /boot/grub/device.map: (hd0) /dev/hdc (hd1) /dev/hdd Final /boot/grub/menu.lst [only relevant lines]: [...] # kopt=root=/dev/hdd2 ro [...] # groot=(hd1,0) [...] root (hd1,0) kernel /vmlinuz- root=/dev/hdd2 ro initrd /initrd.img- savedefault [...] titleWindows root (hd0,0) savedefault makeactive chainloader +1 6. Solution (third and final, and critical, step) The problem persisted, and the solution was to reinstall grub in the MBR of the first disk (hd0, hdc), with root in (hd0,1) [hdd]: After booting from LiveCD: # grub grub> root (hd0,1) grub> setup (hd0) grub> quit # Ok, that's it.

Scroll wheels not working after upgrade to etch/xorg
On doing a dist-upgrade which pulled in xorg I found my scroll wheels were no longer working. Either they did nothing at all or they simulated the press of some unknown key on the keyboard and activated all manner of keyboard shortcuts that I didn't know existed. The scroll wheels were still generating events, but not the right ones any more. Google merely turned up a few other baffled people with a similar problem. The solution turned out to be to include Option "Emulate3Buttons" "off" in xorg.conf. The existing xorg.conf simply had the Emulate3Buttons line commented out, and it seems from the log file that xorg was defaulting to enabling Emulate3Buttons. Explicitly disabling Emulate3Buttons got my scroll wheels working again. I hope someone somewhere finds this useful. -- Pigeon Be kind to pigeons- -Pigeon's Nest: http://pigeonsnest.co.uk/ GPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x21C61F7F signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I can access the page normally with AdBlock disabled and when bypassing my local filtering proxy (privoxy). It seems that the "white-out" behavior is in some way connected to the Flash ad in the page. The site breaks for me as soon as I disable the FlashBlock add-on, even with AdBlock and privoxy re-activated. However, when I use FlashBlock I can activate the ad after the page has loaded without any detrimental effect (other than having to look at their advertisement drivel). -- Regards,| http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
