which shell I'm using?
docs I've read says echo $SHELL, while you remain in the system with the original login shell echo $SHELL gives the correct answer, but not in case you have executed another shell, for example: $ echo $SHELL /bin/bash $ csh % echo $SHELL /bin/bash % exit $ tcsh nahoo:~> echo $SHELL /bin/bash so, echo $SHELL seems not to be reliable, how could I now which shell I am using?

can't boot 2.4.X kernel
I need some help here, for a reason I don't know I'm unable to boot any 2.4.X kernel, including the debian's kernels. This happens since I've tried 2.6.0test4, I think, but I'm not sure that the test kernel caused the problem. When I try one of them the kernel says: VFS: Cannot open root device "hda3" or 0303 Please append a correct "root=" boot option kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root on 03:03 I'm lost and I would appreciate some hints to debug this. the relevant items in the grub menu.lst are: # this boots fine title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.0 root(hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.0 root=/dev/hda3 ro savedefault boot # this doesn't boor title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.23-1-686 root(hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.23-1-686 root=/dev/hda3 ro initrd /initrd.img-2.4.23-1-686 savedefault boot I think both are fine.

mem info interpretation
I'm trying to interpretate the memory information the file /proc/e820info, for example, the second line says: 04000 @ 0009fc00 (reserved) >From where to where are this addresses go? as I know 4000 in binary is 0100 => 2^14/8=2.048 Kb and 9fc00 is 1001 1110 1100 => (2^19+2^16+2^15+2^14+2^13+2^11+2^10)/8=81.28Kb if that is correct how can my bios has reserved the address fff0 which corresponds to a VERY VERY HIGH ADDRESS, obiously I'm doing something basic bad. 0009fc00 @ (usable) 0400 @ 0009fc00 (reserved) 0002 @ 000e (reserved) 1fec @ 0010 (usable) 00038000 @ 1ffc (ACPI data) 8000 @ 1fff8000 (ACPI NVS) 1000 @ fec0 (reserved) 1000 @ fee0 (reserved) 0008 @ ffb8 (reserved) 0010 @ fff0 (reserved)
