Yesterday I installed the eval version of win4lin under Mandrake 7.1.

I am still learning my way around Linux with no prior background in UNIX.
That is a true novice.
I know that under unix, one can attach dumb terminals (such as the Wyse 160)

Can that be done under Linux? H

I'm waiting for the day I can share my ReiserFS partitons between Linux
and Windows. It'd be a smart move for Microsoft to take but they are
probably to egotistical to use someone elses FS. Either that or they'd do
some lame embrace and extend shit so it still wouldn't work right.

Let's say that you need to set up systems for a group. You could go to each
system, boot off the CDROM, answer all the questions, then go to the next

You will want to ensure that you patch this vanilla kernel with all the
extras Mandrake puts on that aren't in the official kernel if you use
them:
-udma66 (available in poeple/hedrick in on kernel.org)
-reiserfs
others?
plus, you might want to add other security patches, like the openwall
patch.
I'm no expert, but here is where I would start:
1) have you run fsck ? (File Systems ChecK) If not, then do so, but besure
that you read and understand the man first.
2) after passing the fsck, try writing LILO again. Check the options. Make
a change, save, change it back, save again. N.B.:
