Hmmm... How exactly does this spam-scam work? Does the spammer require a proof-o-faith `donation' to initiate further communication or something? Nigeria 4-1-9 They send you a counterfeit money order/ cheque, you deposit it, your bank makes the funds available, you send the bad guy the

FreeBSD Slices on a PC Compatible Logical Device

2006-09-09 Thread David Lloyd
Hi There, I partitioned my PC Compatible machine like this: /dev/hda1 - Normal partition /dev/hda2 - Normal partition /dev/hda3 - ~100 gigabyte logical partition There's no sectors left to make another normal partition. From what I can gather in the documentation, a FreeBSD slice (in this

2006-09-09 Thread David Lloyd
Jerry, Generally, FreeBSD needs a primary slice to boot and run. I assume what you are calling 'normal partition' is what is called a primary slice. Thanks - I had a mental blank as to what to call primary slices :) My suggestion is to shrink that 'logical partition' and make a 4th slice

Re: SAP DB on FreeBSD

2002-10-25 Thread David Lloyd
Mike, I would assume that SAP DB would work as well under Linux emulation, but it would be cool if a native FreeBSD port effort was underway. However, with 6000+ source files it sounds like a monster to port. The Handbook from 4.6 says that it runs under Linux; I've never tried it but it's

Jack, Can anyone explain how the DUMP levels work? I understand that 0 is a full FS dumo, but what does 1, 2, 3, 4 etc etc etc stand for? Level 0 - full dump Level 1 - dumps only the files that have changed since the last level 0 dump Level 2 - dumps only the files that have changed

Matthew, Why does linking an application such as java/javac to the /usr/local/bin/ directory make the java and javac commands global? Whereas 'kmail' is not in there, but if I type it Kmail will launch anyways. Do a which kmail. You probably need to read about how FreeBSD (and Linux and

FreeBSD File System Comparison

Is there any comparison that is easy for a non-kernel (Linux/Kernel) hacker to understand between other file systems? I've discovered that: * it's derived from something called the Fast File System * that I need to add a -o ufstype=44bsd when mounting it under linux * that it's not a
