<0> dd if=sbootmgr.dsk of=/dev/fd0
<1> birdfish: the info pages for grub are much more informative than man grub
<2> birdfish : there really is no difference. grub sees them as drive <whatever number is of the next drive>
<2> Uriel_Darling : that dumps image from file sbootmgr.dsk to the first floppy drive
<0> opps, not .dsk .img ^_^
<0> thats not the right way to to do it?
<2> Uriel_Darling : incidentaly, yes, it may be a way of creating a boot floppy.
<3> Uriel_Darling get, install, read mtools
<0> got 'em
<2> Uriel_Darling : what you asked is similar to: 'what's the exact procedure to make a picture' and then you asked if 'taking a color-me-book and using crayons' is the correct way.
<2> yes, it's one of the many ways that can lead to creating a boot disk. there is no one and only way of doing it
<0> well, i've never done it nor heard of doing it another way.
<0> I'm very sure your right, theres a million ways to do everything. I barely know one.
<2> Uriel_Darling : dd command simply takes input and dumps it on output
<2> and that's all it does.
<4> I know how to specify a source address using iptables, but how do i specify that the action should only be performed if the source address is NOT matched?
<0> ok
<2> hmm, vmware server beta for free. i just may try it...
<0> well, is there by chance a gui app that can do it?
<2> Uriel_Darling : hmm, i think there is a problem here. i don't think that either: a) you know how to say what you really want, b) you are confused as to what you want
<0> I want to try to create a boot floppy by another means, to see if it truely is my drive.
<2> Uriel_Darling : what kind of 'boot floppy'
<0> (As in the problems of it not writeing it properly)
<5> Uriel_Darling : you can make a boot floppy with grub-install
<2> see, that's the issue. boot floppy is a generic term. in windows world 'boot floppy' meant pretty much only one thing: a floppy with dos/windows basic command.com/exe
<6> how do i turn on local .htaccess suport in apache2 ?
<0> Stylish, any how to on that?
<2> Uriel_Darling : in the linux world that can mean anything from a bootloader floppy, to a floppy containing entire os, to a floppy with specialized software to provide boot access to other devices, etc
<7> vyrus001: it's in the manpage(s)
<2> vyrus001 : check in #apache
<0> Anake, it's the floppy image i got from the gentoo site
<5> first nano /boot/grub/menu.1st then grub-install /dev/fd0
<0> I'm truely not sure what it is
<0> I'm sorry
<0> I feel stupid now X_x
<7> wow
<2> Uriel_Darling : so what you're saying is essentially: 'i want to learn how to dump an image to a floppy'
<2> Uriel_Darling : dd if=somefile of=/dev/fd0 is probably the best way
<0> anake, I think thats what i'm getting at,
<2> Uriel_Darling : cat somefile > /dev/fd0 _can_ work, but in case of errors you'll never find out
<0> Stylish, I'm not sure about that.
<0> I have lilo
<8> how do i check cpu utilization?
<5> dd if=hello.img of=/dev/fd0
<0> I use**
<2> troyfrew : top
<9> anyone tried to share with nfs mounted fat disks??
<2> sett : hmm, i didn't think that was possible
<9> why?
<9> why shouldn't that be possible
<0> anake, okay i run that, any idea what this means? 1+0 records in
<0> 1+0 records out
<8> for both cpu's?
<2> just a wild guess, directly pulled from my ***
<2> troyfrew : yes
<9> need to google more
<3> Carey on abcfam now
<2> sett : well, do you have problems or are you trying to find out first if it's possible?
<2> Uriel_Darling : it means that it read X number of records, and it wrote X number of records
<9> I surely have problem
<0> Anake, so it's not an error?
<3> ok folks, i'm done
<9> I share one folder it is ok, share the mounted one it is not
<2> Uriel_Darling : no, it's not an error. it's a correct output
<0> Wow, thank you so very much
<0> I'm gonna try it now ^_^
<2> Uriel_Darling : enjoy
<3> nite
<0> Thanks for putting up with me ^_^
<10> i'm looking for a way to have the volume keyboard shortcuts in gnome control PCM rather than Master, which used to be the case in pre 2.6 when acme was around, and in gconf-editor /apps/acme/use_pcm could be set to true. ideas?
<5> i got a sick tooth
<5> its right at the back on the right top
<11> hello
<11> i would like to know which of the linux OSes has free updates and is easy to update the system
<2> sasha2 : most have free updates
<2> sasha2 : fedora and debian for example have easy to use update systems
<12> sasha2: linux is 'free' (for at least one definition of the word) .. the distros may charge for a CD or for support, but it's harder to find one that will charge than one that doesnt' :)
<12> IMHO debian is the easiest to update so long as you leave your sources.list alone after you set up your machine :)
<11> ok
<13>
<14> whats that command to trace tcp data?
<14> kinda like strace or something?
<2> trace tcp data? uhmm, like tcpdump?
<14> i think thats it
<14> yea.... htats it
<14> thanks
<8> dude!! i got multiple sound sources working (ran 5 copies of xmms playing 5 different mp3's)
<8> ^_^
<15> completely offtopic,
<15> but where is this caricature the middle east is flipping out about?
<13> uhm, ok- i launched 50 webbrowsers each with different strongbad emails... i don't know how many of them actually played their audio, but it was a lot
<2> chapium : lemme know when you find it. i kept hearing about it from my folks in europe
<15> ananke: ok. My first thought it isnt worth dieing and burning buildings over, but I need to see it now
<4> how do I allow only one specific user other than root to rwx files at certain mount point?
<16> hey
<16> has anyone ever heard of the language "R"?
<2> blz321 : yes. no.
<16> huh
<2> i've heard of R, the statistical/math software, which has something like a built in language
<16> rite
<16> well my school uses linux and i am more familiar with windows
<16> do you think i could write R scripts on windows and run them on linux?
<2> blz321 : most likely yes. as long as you don't read/write files
<2> otherwise, most of it should be platform independent
<17> hi guys, how can I switch between wired and wireless networks?
<16> cool
<16> i hope you are right
<2> blz321 : you could always check R's mailing list and documentation www.r-project.org
<17> the wired one is eth0 with gw and nameserver 192.168.1.1 and the wireless one is wlan0 on dhcp
<18> how do i have a dir listings with just the full path to eatch file and its -R
<2> ForrestF : huh?
<18> im trying to make a mplayer playlist just each file is in a differnt folder
<2> english. try using it, and describe in detail what you're trying to do
<18> so i need full path names one file on each line and just the files path+name (/theother/music/a/Abby.mp3 <CR>/theother/music/b/boobyblue.mp3)
<19> man ls
<18> did that
<18> could not find what i was looking for, somthings people know hidden commands
<19> sorry wong place ignore me
<12> ls /full/path/to/dir
<2> ForrestF : find
<18> :P
<18> YA
<18> lol dumb me
<2> ForrestF : find /theother/music
<18> ya i know
<18> i had a brain fart
<2> how about 'thank you'
<16> wats the fastest linux distrubution?
<20> blz321: LFS
<2> blz321 : no such thing
<16> wats that
<2> LFS is a cookbook, not a distro
<16> i use debian and i think i have a bunch of nonsense on there that i dont need
<2> blz321 : so remove/disable the things you don't need.
<2> no distro will make up for incompetence
<21> i just found out a way to convert flash files to video files, and its completely cross platform
<20> ananke: that is true, but there are people who don't realise that you can make it faster by removing un-necessary things
<21> and requires no extra software
<2> hatake_kakashi : the people who wouldn't know how to remove/disable things would be the LAST people who'd ever want to touch LFS
<20> ananke: heh
<16> so
<16> how do i remove stuff
<16> sorry
<21> rm <file>
<16> ignore that
<2> blz321 : you start from reading debian documentation
<16> but listen to this
<16> i like debian beacuse of the debian packages so i dont have to compile programs with headers and libraries.... isnt there a better way of installing software?
<16> if i didnt have debian?
<17> hi guys, how can I switch between wired and wireless networks?
<17> the wired one is eth0 with gw and nameserver 192.168.1.1 and the wireless one is wlan0 on dhcp
