<2> oops
<3> jahshua: running fsck anytime is a risk. running it on a mounted filesystem is a higher risk. sometimes you have no choice.
<2> ok
<2> thank you
<4> urg
<3> when you boot into single, you will still have the root filesystem mounted
<1> mount -t ntfs /dev/p38 /mnt/winodws
<1> fsck /dev/p38
<1> >:)
<3> damn straight
<4> jahshua: best method is cd boot .. :)
<4> then fsck from there
<4> either that or touch /autofsck
<4> :)
<1> mount /dev/znx /mnt/beat
<1> fsck /dev/znx
<4> HAHA
<4> Sh4dowcat++
<1> that's so quotable
<3> best method is to mount from a live filesystem and fsck from there

<6> I have a vaguely Linux related question.... Any good idea how I can install linux (Switch from win) without whiping my harddrive? (I have a 120GB hd that is filled by 95GB)
<4> qvasi: you can reparition with something like parition magic.. but BACKUP!
<2> yes
<6> would the easiest be to buy a new harddrive and use the new disk as os partition?
<4> hehe jahshua
<2> that was my moment of total *nix conversion
<4> qvasi: imho .. one os to one disk is the best option..
<4> so yes :)
<2> alot less (potential) heartache
<6> only problem is that the last time I tried to install a new harddrive (while crawling around on a carpet) I somehow managed to destroy it..(?) :)
<0> from cli how do i copy everything in one directory to another?
<0> cp *
<0> ?
<7> cp -R * /path/to/target
<7> or something along tyhose lines
<4> cp -r does it too :)
<0> ewww scarey to hear "or something"
<0> may delete the whole thing
<4> cp -r dir/ newdir
<0> ok
<8> im so damn bored
<7> won't delete it. :P



<8> znx, how are supanet?
<4> how are who?
<8> supanet

<8> im looking for a new isp
<4> dont pick supanet
<10> hahahaha
<11> This is no man pig.
<10> supposedly i made it onto the netfilter mailing list
<10> someone posted linux-noob.com
<10> the post i made about ssh connection limiting
<10> that might mean a bunch of hits to ln.com
<4> hehe
<12> hey eveyrone
<12> anyone familiar with VHCS2 hosting control panel?
<12> or spam***asin
<13> does anyweb pay to run the linux-noob site out of his pocket?
<10> yes
<4> all donations are accepted ;)

<13> opps, obscure

<3> rofl yeah the front page
<13> really.... why can't I see that
<13> ah, it's way down there... thanks
<11> ladeh_k now has reflecting shots! =)
<0> sorry to be such a ******* but I am drained in the head and i am making mistakes.. ok i know how to copy from one dir to another , but how do i remove all of whats in a single dir. rm -rf can be risky as root and I dont wanna make a mistake
<10> well
<10> dont add the -f
<10> until you get used to it
<10> otherwise rm -rf /directory
<0> i dont wanna delete the dir itself I know how to do that , just delete whats in it
<0> or i guess I can delete the dir and recreate it
<2> hmm znx do you know of a good link for how to use fluxbox themes like the ones on fluxbox.org/themes and freshmeat etc .. i dont see much about it in the docs there and i have nothing in my .fluxbox/styles
<4> jahshua: its easy enough..
<4> ~/.fluxbox/styles contains the style file.. ~/.fluxbox/backgrounds contains the bg images
<4> all the styles in your dir will show up in your menu
<4> select the new style (theme) and it will load
<4> you can also use blackbox themes.. and commonbox openbox .. there are a few based on the same material
<2> ok so if i download a theme and unzip it .. do i cp it to the style dir?
<2> decompress/unzip sorry
<4> i do .. yeah some pack differently
<2> ok
<4> jahshua: i could upload all the ones from gentoo?
<4> there is a big stash :)
<2> hehe that would be rather excellent
<2> but thats not gentoo specific or anything is it?
<4> no its not
<4> its just a big collection :)
<2> ok great :)
<2> thank you
