RE: creating a cd-image

You can use 'mkisofs' from the command line. This can be a bit tricky the first time, read 'man mkisofs' carefully first. There may be an easier way, using a GUI based prog like xcdroast... maybe someone else can verify. > Original Message- > From: Philipp Bliedung [mailto:[EMAIL PROT

RE: Modem isn't working

If all else fails, check out this site: http://axion.physics.ubc.ca/ppp-linux.html pppconfig didn't work for me, I had to alter the config files manually. Dunno if this is because of a peculiarity with the modem, or the ISP, or whatever... anyway, the info at the above should see you right if not

RE: HELP, caught in a login loop

Hi Karsten, Every distro I've used can be forced into runlevel 3 (ie. straight into a console) by simply typing - linux 3 - at the LILO prompt when booting. (Substitute "linux" with whatever name you have assigned to your Debian partition in /etc/lilo.conf). Then you should be able to modify co
