pcmcia-cs vs. pcmcia-source
I am compiling my kernel and pcmcia modules from source. Do I need both pcmcia-cs and pcmcia-source. Or will the tools and gizmos that come with pcmcia-cs get built when I compile the pcmcia-source package.

BCP Postgres upgrade 6.5-->7.2
Hello, I have a database running on potato using postgres 6.5 that I'd like to upgrade to Woody running postgres 7.2. The docs seem to imply that upgrading with this big a jump from 6.5 to 7.2 is dangerous.even if I do it by hand like so: pg_dump mydatabase > dump.mydatabase destroydb mydatabase upgrade the database system to 7.2 createdb mydatabase psql < dump.mydatabase Can this large jump be made safely? If not, I don't see any other versions of postgres available for debian...so how should it be done in smaller increments? Do my steps above look reasonable? Thanks, Henry Hollenberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Install problem on laptop Toshiba T4400sxc
Would you know what is going on and how I could successfully install the system? Additional Information: - I tried booting from the RESC1440 but got a computer freeze on the following message : RAMDISK:Compressed image found at block 0 Couldn't get a free page Out of memory VFS: Mounted root (minix filesystem) - so I used the LOWMEM.bin floppy and I was able to boot and partition the hard disk: 16MB swap (type 82 from block 1 to 121) - 2MB temporary root (type 81 from block 122 to 137) - 108MB for / (type 83 from block 138 to 934). The whole disk being used for Linux only. - First strange message after initializing the 16MB swap and 2MB root and typing 4 (exit), I got "SWAP ON... failed". But the install program load nonetheless. - I then configure the keyboard without problem but during the "Configure Device Driver Modules, I get a "can't open /lib/2.0.86/modules" and another "can't open" something (too fast to read it). The install program then goes to "exit, finished with the modules" (I don't get to select any module and then go back to main menu and start "install base system and get terminal problem described in the opening of this message. Well that's it. I sure hope you can help me out. Thank you, Chris __ FREE Personalized Email at Mail.com Sign up at http://www.mail.com?sr=mc.mk.mcm.tag001

Toshiba laptop install problem
Hi, I'm trying to install Debian/Linux on a Toshiba laptop 486sx /4MG RAM. I downloaded the latest (2.1.4) lowmem, rescue, driver and base 1 to 7 disks. I get stuck in the middle of the installation process after having inserted the whole base set (7 disks), the install program give me an "file error!" message saying that something went wrong during extraction of /target/base2_1.tgz file. On tty3, I get /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.004/IO/Select.pm: File exists star: File exists >From then on the install program ask me to re-insert the base set over and over each time ending unsuccefully. Any ideas you might have on the matter would be much much appreciated. Thanks again for the help. Chris __ FREE Personalized Email at Mail.com Sign up at http://www.mail.com?sr=mc.mk.mcm.tag001
