Why not copy the contents of a card to a hard disk somewhere? That way you don't have to disturb a running machine to make a copy. DD, cpio, scp (example syntax) in a step by step)? You could dd the card to a file and use the same file every time you need a new card. Um I do not mean to be a pain, but could you provide a little bit of pseudo-syntax? Assume I have shutdown a 4 GB CF firewall card and moved it to a reader/writer on another machine. First I need to format the raw (new) 4GB CF card from a reader. /media/sdb1 shows up, but when I run 'fdisk /media/sdb1' I get: last_lba(): I don't know how to handle files with mode 40755 You will not be able to write the partition table. In the past I have formated the CF cards on the new machine being built, but I need help figuring out how to do this, from a CF reader/writer on another machine (thus avoiding a traditional install) ?

Re: [gentoo-user] [OT] suggest not-net-hungry Linux
Gentoo is only net-hungry on the install and on updates.If you can do the install before he goes net-free, then your fine, glsa-check should cover you for the updates I would assume that in most cases source tarballs will be smaller than binaries to download too :) If you can download the runtime image + portage beforehand onto a thumb drive or DVD's the Gentoo install isn't even all that net hungry. You might find that Damn Small Linux is, well, damn small and doesn't take that much bandwidth to download. -- Steven Lembark85-09 90th St. Workhorse Computing Woodhaven, NY, 11421 [EMAIL PROTECTED] +1 888 359 3508

I can download installation CD iso (or two), but the main problem is, that PC during next few months will have dialup connection (33600) only. As a result, I need to choose Linux with minimal net traffic in mind (just security updates will be sufficient). There are no any special demands (OOo, images and PDF viewer, Firefox, Thunderbird and Krusader (or other two panel file manager) will be a sufficient apps set for beginning, + booting to level 5). Suggestions? opensuse or slackware

Well, I'm not sure any other alternatives are attractive? Unless I find a way to mount those partitions off of a usb stick, or some other idea? Since they are not frequently updated and have minimal installed software (iptables on firewalls and DNS on DNS servers) accompanied by the fact that most devices have internal wear leveling; it should take many years to reach the write cycle limits? What about /var/log? The various logfiles are written very frequently. Could you NFS mount this from somewhere else? I wouldn't rely on wear levelling in a CF card, only on an SSDdrive. http://linitx.com/viewproduct.php?prodid=10448 very cool! exactly what I could not find. I used one of their adaptors to run a MythTV frontend from CF, although it netboots now. I used a variation on a live CD setup, so the card was not written to. You could dd the card to a file and use the same file every time you need a new card. Um I do not mean to be a pain, but could you provide a little bit of pseudo-syntax? Assume I have shutdown a 4 GB CF firewall card and moved it to a reader/writer on another machine. First I need to format the raw (new) 4GB CF card from a reader. /media/sdb1 shows up, but when I run 'fdisk /media/sdb1' I get: last_lba(): I don't know how to handle files with mode 40755 You will not be able to write the partition table. /media/sdb1 is the mount point, not the device node. Use dd if=/dev/sdb of=CF.img bs=4096 to read the card, switch of and if to write a new one. Of course, all the cards have to be the same size. In the past I have formated the CF cards on the new machine being built, but I need help figuring out how to do this, from a CF reader/writer on another machine (thus avoiding a traditional install) ? You don't need to format at all if you dd the whole drive, as that includes the partition table, MBR and the kitchen sink. -- Neil Bothwick Rude alert, rude alert!
