I want to add the new drive as a third disk so that the system will continue to boot off of sda. I'm current;y running F10 in 32 bit mode. After I add the new drive, it will be seen as sdc, and I will want to install F12 in 64 bit mode on sdc. Q0: Can I tell the install DVD to install on sdc and to leave sda alone? Yes. Customize partitions and check every item twice. Q1: Is it possible to have multiple bootable devices? And how do I do this? Yes. This is the process you should setup: a) Bios starts OS from the disk you select (in your case, sda) b) Grub chooses which disk to boot from (in your case, sda1 or, say, sdc1) If you are not so sure, you can a) Bios boot from sdc b) Grub choosing boot from sda1 or sdc1 Next, after I'm thrilled to death that sdc is how I want it to be, I want to make a cutover so that sdc will then become the primary boot device. My understanding is that the four SATA plugs I have on my motherboard are defined so that one (currently sda) is considered to be the primary device. Q2: When I do a cutover, do I have to switch the cables on the new sdc and what is now sda? Will the new drive end up being referred as sda and the now current sda become sdc? Ah, you should know hoy your bios chooses which one is sda, which sdb, etc. That depends on cabling. I believe: IDE1/Master: hda/sda IDE1/Slave: hdb/sdb IDE2/Master: hdc/sdc IDE2/Slave: hdd/sdd and so on. Q3: Is there a grub command I need to run to make the new drive become the bootable device? Or do I have to then reload from scratch to make it all work? Yes. just check your /boot/grub/menu.lst, google for grub and man grub Thanks :-) Please, tell us by the list how it went.

Re: (OT) Generate Graphical Tree (SVG / PNG) of Directory Structure
Am Dienstag, den 02.03.2010, 22:21 -0500 schrieb Armelius Cameron:
I am wondering if anyone knows any tool to generate a graphical
representation
of directory structure as a tree. Directories would be a node, files would
be
leaves. I know about the command line tree. It's similar, but not exactly
what I need. It'd be nice to be able to rotate something like the output of
tree command line 90 degree, so that the siblings are on the same
horizontal
level. Also, preferably the output is in SVG, so I can edit it using e.g.
Inkscape. But if not, I guess other formal (i.e. PNG, PS) is a possibility
too.
I know about Graphviz. So if I can't find anything I guess I can try to do
this
myself and code up something. I just didn't want to do the work if something
is already out there :) . If there are other tools similar to Graphviz (maybe
something simpler), I'd like to hear about it too.
Maybe this graphviz I used once will help, it generates a PNG. I used
some recursion, but no clue about doing it with just one command (find,
tree, may..be?)
---
#!/bin/bash
function recurse () {
SUBS=$(find $1 -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d)
for a in $SUBS
do
echo \$1\ - \$a\; $DOTFILE
recurse $a
done
}
DOTFILE=$(mktemp)
export IFS=$'\n'
echo digraph unix { $DOTFILE
echo node [color=lightblue2, style=filled]; $DOTFILE
recurse $1
echo } $DOTFILE
dot -Tpng $DOTFILE dirs.png
eog dirs.png
---
Call it with drawrecurse.bash /home/myuser/mytree. You can modify it in
many ways, and change graphviz options to get your desired output.

Re: lzma compression on official isos vs Deltaisos
Am Dienstag, den 09.03.2010, 20:35 -0800 schrieb Antonio Olivares: Yes, But I must ask again, rpm is using xz compression, but can it be recompressed again with xz, No it cannot. Recompressing something that is already compressed, normally ends in growing the final result. xz is already present in Fedora 11/Fedora 12/Fedora 13 Alpha/Fedora Rawhide and 7zip can open/extract the files too. The rpms are xz compressed but the isos are not. That is what I am asking, or is it too much compression? When is so much too much? Too much compression there is not. Best compression means getting optimal balance between spent resources (time, space) and final result (file size). Normally, you can add some additional compression, using different algorithms and techniques. But compression time grows exponentially.

Afaik, ffox bases its supposition about passwords on protocol, url, and field names. If two pages present the same environment, ffox uses the same user/password pair.

Mockup tool?
Hi. Does Fedora (16) include any mockup tool? (something like mockflow.com or mockingbird.com, but not online)...

F18: Gnome panel icons w a s t e s p a c e !
Hi. After update to F18, my gnome panel icons (20px) spacings are too wide (perhaps 1cm, fallback mode). Googled, tried modifying spacings width gconf-editor, gconftool-2 gtk-widgets.css, ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini, but no success. They are still wasting space. Am I missing something? How can I reduce this space wasting? Thanks!

No. Even when I slowly wrote it. I think this might cause nc to send one big packet with all the lines which might not be what asterisk expects. I'd also expect telnet to turn of nagling on the socket (so data is sent immediately rather than buffering). I think nc doesn't do that although it does provide a configurable send/receive delay interval (-i). I used big delays. No difference. Failing that I would try a tethereal/tcpdump to see what's different in the data going over the wire. Already tried, tcpdump -X. The process is completely different (telnet is interactive, nc don't), and I dont' get which is the precise problem. I've already used nc with asterisk, and worked fine. Maybe is my asterisk version...

Ok. Did you check you can ping? First, routing, second, transport (ISO

Instead of firefox, use telnet (from windows or linux), this way:
telnet my.ip.addr.ess 80
then write

You should see html code.
