Is there a way to "safely" do a e2fsck scan on your active and boot
partitions? I dont want to fix any problems, I just want to see if there
are any problems without booting a different partition/resq disk.
there is the -n option but I dont know if that is _safe_
Thanks!

Hallo.
I've got a really nasty problem with the Debian INN.
I've set up a crontab entry like

My friend asked this on comp.os.linux.hardware, but he got no useful
replies, so I'm asking my fellow Debianites:
Is there a motherboard with more than 8 SIMM slots? Alternatively, is
there one with more than 4 DIMM slots? Since 32MB SIMMs are much cheaper
than 64MB SIMMs, and 64MB DIMMs are

Hello !
I'm a happy Debian User and I live with unstable. I like Debian, because I
can do everything very easy (killer apps for mail, web and so on).
But I cannot find a good way to build web pages. How do you build web sites
with Debian? Via SGML (with Emacs) or with simple vi? I need something

Hey
I just installed Debian 1.3 ([stable contrib non-free]). And to me, it looks
like the adduser scripts isn't working properly.. in fact.. it doesn't act

Anyone familiar with this problem/bug?

Assuming root (/) is a single partition, and /mnt another, you can do:
