Things will be extremely slow, or will not work, etc...

Kernel 2.2.3 & Kernel Panic...
Howdy All! I've been working with installing the Kernel 2.2.3, and I have a problem... After I run the 'make menuconfig' and then 'make clean; make dep; make install'... I then make a boot file for the NT Boot Manager... When I get the NT Boot Manager to go to Linux, Everything works fine, until it comes time to mount the hard drive... I get a MSDOS FAT 12... yada yada yada... Then I get: Kernel Panic. Unable to mount the root partition on 16:05 I have DOS Fat support turned on, and the VFAT support is turned on... The MSDOS Fat is not set (It doesn't work even if it is set)I have SCSI & PPA enabled for my ZipDrive Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, Brant
Re: Kernel 2.2.3 & Kernel Panic...
Howdy All... My Linux box is running on an ext2 partition. I use 'make install' , because it automatically makes the necessary changes for me, plus the fact that the last time I tried 'make zImage', it wiped out my Hard Drive when I installed it. I just went back and looked at the setup in 'menuconfig' I see absolutely nothing about Ext2 under the FileSystems tab I do have enabled, Second extended fs... When you use zImage, what do you do after it makes the zImage?? Move the file to the /boot directory? Thanks, Brant.

What DO you lose with Linux
Howdy all... I saw a message in this thread pass by a couple of days ago... It was talking about some software called VMWare. Http://www.vmware.com Anyone that has a PC with Linux & Win 9x/NT installed needs to see this site. I've downloaded the software for Linux (still in the first beta stages), but it works,and works well. It allows you to run Linux & Win 9x/NT on the same PC at the same time! I've got a Pentium 200 MMX system, with 48 megs of ram... Linux runs the Vmware program, that runs NT 4.0... While under VMWare, NT runs a little slower, but it is still VERY usable. I reccommend this program to anyone who has Linux & Win on the same machine, and a fast computer (A Pentium II 233/266 w/32 megs of ram would be nice). See Ya, Brant

RE: Installing Debian and WinNT4.0
Hey Tom! How are you? I got NT & Linux to work like this: Boot up linux, and log in as Root get to a command prompt when you have, type the following: dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/dev/fd0/lnxboot.sec bs=512 replace /dev/hda2 with the boot partition for linux (usually hda2, I think...) Set WindowsNT to boot, and crank it up, Logon as Administrator (or with Administrator Privs...) open up a dos window, and remove all the attributes of the file C:\Boot.ini then, make a folder on your c-drive and put the file from the (lnxboot.sec) in this folder...Example... from dos window, attrib C:\Boot.ini -s -h -r md C:\LinuxBoot copy a:\lnxboot.sec C:\Linuxboot after you have done this, then edit the boot.ini file... The quickest thing to do, is add one line...It should look something like this: C:\LBOOT\LNXBOOT.SEC="Debian Linux!" then save the file... Exit the dos prompt, and reboot the computer... When the WinNT boot screen comes up, you should see a choice that says whatever you put in, like "Debian Linux!" Just select it, and press enter... If all goes well, and is done correctly, then your Linux System Will boot... Let me know if this works... Brant Wells. "Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

Re: I really need some help!
Hey Nuno! How are you? Log in to your Linux system as root. Then run the dselcect to install the packages (libs, etc..) When you get into dselect, go to the packages list, and then press the / key. Then, you can search for the libs that it is missing, like for xpm, or libg++, etc. (You don't have to use the version #, just the first few letters)...Press the \ key, to see if there are any more matches to what you are looking for... For the qt libs, you need to go to http://www.troll.no/dl and there you'll find the qt libs. >Some of the libs asked for are: xpm, libg++27, libjpegg-dev, >and >something like qp something. Hope this helps. Brant __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

What you can do, is take the firewall and map a specific port to the IP address of one of the local machines... I'm not familiar with the Linux Firewall (yet), but I'm sure you can map something like port 23 to IP address 192.168.0.110 or something like that. I ran behind a home firewall like that for a while (for incoming telnet...)... That should work under Linux as well. HTH, Brant

Make you a Dos, or Windows Boot Disk, then, from windows, copy the following files off of the install folder on the CDROM (ftpsite..) onto the floppy: boot.bat linux root.bin loadlin.exe Then boot off of your Dos/Windows boot disk, and then insert the disk that you put the listed files on... then run the boot.bat file Try that and see what happend ;) Hope This Helps, Brant Wells ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ps: Anyone reading this, please correct me, if there's an easier way to do this (grin)...

Re: Booting from floopy slow
Howdy: I installed Debian slink in a second hard drive, which is hdb1 (there are hda1 to hda4), my system does not allow booting from a slave hard drive, so I use the floppy system, but it is very slow. What can I do to accelerate it? This is what I've had to do... in your /etc/lilo.conf, edit the line that says boot=/dev/hdb1 (or whatever..) and change it to say /dev/fd0 (your first floppy disk)... Then save the file, insert a blank disk. After that, just type lilo from your command prompt. On my computer, /etc/lilo.conf looks like this... boot=/dev/fd0 root=/dev/hdb1 install=/boot/boot.b map=/boot/map vga=normal delay=20 image=/vmlinuz label=Linux read-only then, when I run the lilo command, it looks like this: LinuxBox:~# lilo If you have a blank disk in the floppy, it should say something like "Added Linux *" or something like that. Then, the next time you reboot, use the floppy you just made, to start linux...

Re: Joeseph Hartmann & Netscape
Hey Joe, I read somewhere when you get the tarball (communicator-v407...tgz) file from the netscape ftp site. Then you copy that file to /tmp and then you run dpkg -i pathname/netscape.deb (the netscape install package) and it should work... I'm trying it now :) E-mail me if I can help you, and maybe we can work through this together :) Fellow Linux Newbie, Brant Wells; "Ramdisk... not an installation procedure..." __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
Re: Network Setup Problems
Hey Chris: >I am having some problems getting my lan working. I'm trying to >connect my win95 machine to my linux machine. Both have 3c509's >connected to a hub. I've given my linux box 192.168.1.1 and windows >192.168.1.2. However, I can not ping either machine from the other. >Any ideas? Just for reference, have you checked the lights on the Cards, to see if they come on (* a light on the hub should also come on...)? Check the hub, and make sure the fan inside is working. Also, change the ports on the hub as individual ports tend to go bad from time to time... You may also want to find someone with a cable tester to check the cables to the hub. What kind of Hub are you running (3com?)? Depending on what kind of hub you have, there may be a port marked as "Uplink" or something like that... Plug your Linux box into that port (seeing as it looks like your Linux box will be the dial up for the internet)... Is any of that any help?? Let me know...
