Re: fschk

In Debian: The script that does the checks is /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh You can use the following options: 1. create /fastboot file, so fsck won't run at all. 2. change the value of rootcheck variable, so fsck won't run at all. 3. change the vaule of FSCKFIX variable, so fsck will get the -y optio

fschk

Hi, When a Debian (Linux in general as well) fails on the fschk during the boot up it will get "stuck" until root does the "fschk" on his own, and answers manually or "automatically" yes to fix the problem. Can the process of "stuck" until root password be overcomed by telling Linux, "try to fix

Re: Vi and UTF-8

Hi Geoff, First of all, there is no VI anymore, only vim and other programs that mimics VI. On vim, you can use UTF-8 by either doing the following: :set encoding=utf8 Or use it with a UTF-8 environment when executing it (and no other settings effect the encoding). Ido http://ik.homelinux.o
