i was installing hamm tonight and i got a problem while doing so,here's
what i did:
1-:repartition my hard disk,i had a 400 meg partition as /dev/hda1,a 48
meg swap partition /dev/hda2 and a 1.1 gig /dev/hda3 partition,i separated
/dev/hda3 as 2 partition (hda 3 and hda4) and copied the base2_0.tg
Hello all
i'm currently considering having hamm as second OS on my production Debian
box,and if i install it,i would also need to read some document on how to
setup it (PPP networking in my case) so i could install it via ftp,here's
what i think i will need to know:
1-:does there is document on se
does exist a deltree lookalike for linux (or a good way to get rid of some
directory and their files) ???

look like you've got the same problem as me when i choose to ditch win95
and go for Linux,you need 3 files for hooking PPP to a Linux box:
rule no.1-:the PPP HOWTO say that you dont normaly have to touch (read:
edit) the file /etc/ppp/options ,but the one you wrote (King) should not
cause problem
one thing i would suggest in your case is that if you had a big enough
hard drive,you can allway copy the content of you CD to the hard disk (in
DOS) and start from that,i did it,but in my case,it was more in the
interest of speed rater than incompatibility,my HD is a 1.7 gig unit.
