Slackware CD won't boot
Hi gang, My little 'ole linux box has been going thru come changes. As a result of an apparant hack to my eD2.4 I decided to reinstall, but alass my Caldera CD's were all at work. The only thing I had laying around here at home was RH7.0 so I gave it a whirl and it installed no problem. It is very similar to eD2.4 but different too in a number of ways, some I would call an improvement, some not. Recently, and partly because of this list, upon which I have been lurking for a while, I came across Linux System Labs website and saw that I could get numerous linux distros and other goodies for dirt cheap prices. Sooo I invested all of $32us including shipping and got 13 cds which I have been trying out on a 2.4 gig spare hd I had. I just pull the one with RH on it and reset the bios and plug in the test drive. My test system is an old p133 with 48megs, a scsi CD, a Sony CD-RW as the primary drive on the second ide cable, a lousy Mach 32 2 meg video card and my trusty old HP 855c printer. I tried Caldera W3.1 but it hangs real quick and tells me I shoulda had a pII. Redmond Linux Beta 3 does the same thing. I knew it was based on Caldera but I was hoping for better. I must say I was suprised to see the Caldera logo still on the lilo boot screen. I mean come on, if you're going to have your own distro at least you can do is to replace the logo of the company you stole... ahem, borrowed it from. The most successful installation so far goes to EasyLinux, another german product which has done a lot of good things with KDE but unfortunately I have been unable to get their eXs program to successfully create an X config file for my old video card. I had high hopes for Slackware 8.0 but I can't get past square one. The cd won't boot. Here's the uniquely linux error messages I get: isolinux 1.62 Loading spec packet failed, trying to wing it isolinux: Found something at drive = 9F isolinux: Failed to access CD-ROM device; boot failed at this point it just hangs. I'm stumped. Is this a bad CD or what? I can read the cd when I've got the RH system going but I don't want to dump the RH until I'm sure I can replace it with something else that at least lets me get back on the web so I can get help. My system stops now. Like my slackware message, I try to wing it. TIA, Warren _ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: The Worm: How you doin'?
I am still getting 100 to 200 hits per day. I have assumed these are just the same old infected machines, pounding away day after day. Not true. The majority of machines hitting me in September only did it once. That seems to say the majority are new infections, or at least they are new around here. Most of them seem in be in the @HOME network, too. This doesn't seem so surprising when you realize that anyone who hooks up his windows box for the first time with a web page on the internet will be infected within minutes, before he/she might think to install the patches. And, despite @HOME's assurance of a proactive approach, nothing has changed for several weeks here.

NFS / network performance
I spent much of this afternoon enabling NFS between my son's PC (Mandrak 8.0, K6-2-500, 128MB RAM, kernel 2.4.3-mdk) and mine (Caldera 3.1, Athlon 950, 384MB RAM, kernel 2.4.9) and performance is slow, at best. We have 10 Megabit ethernet with only the 2 PCs and our gateway router (freesco -- connected to @Home) connected to a 4 port hub. From his PC, he can mount the NFS shares and navigate the direcotries, even play some of the MP3s I have on my box. Directory navigation with Konqueror is WAY slow, though, and if he tries to play one of the .WAVs I have, performance is choppy at best. Is this the kind of performance that I should expect on 10Mb ethernet or is it indicative of another problem? Additionally, my internet performance has been poor over the past day or 2 (I downloaded Caldera's supplemental CD ISO last night at 30MB/sec where I was getting download speeds in the high 100's not too very long ago), but my son seems to think his hasn't been bad - no hard numbers from him, though).

Additionally, my internet performance has been poor over the past day or 2 (I downloaded Caldera's supplemental CD ISO last night at 30MB/sec where I was getting download speeds in the high 100's not too very long ago), but my son seems to think his hasn't been bad - no hard numbers from him, though). It's possible my network card is going up (it's about 2 years old, SMC Ultra 32 ISA card). Any recommendations on troubleshooting network performance?

Directory navigation with Konqueror is WAY slow, though, and if he tries to play one of the .WAVs I have, performance is choppy at best. Is this the kind of performance that I should expect on 10Mb ethernet or is it indicative of another problem? I had no problems with my (rather limited) use of nfs when a 10 megabit hub was the network backbone here of course with a 100 megabit switch everything just blazes along. Additionally, my internet performance has been poor over the past day or 2 (I downloaded Caldera's supplemental CD ISO last night at 30MB/sec where I was getting download speeds in the high 100's not too very long ago), but Lol... interesting typo. Being able to download an iso in under 25 seconds would be really cool.
