Comments:
<0> cause this is a pain in the ***
<0> autofs does nothing
<1> linux2: paperclip it open,.
<1> ...and reboot if you can.
<1> that's what I do in a pinch.
<2> linux2: I found a standalone 'auto-eject-cdrom-0.2.tar.gz' that worked for me
<0> what i want wondering is why it works fine in mandriba
<1> i had this psychotic burner lock up on me during an os install
<2> linux2: polled the button state, and if it was pressed, ran a script
<1> linux2: which distro is it f***ing up on>?
<0> debian
<1> eww
<0> why?
<1> because of the same crap you're going through.
<1> and other horrible oversights.
<0> bsdirl, what do you recomment?
<1> i recommend puppy or bsd lol
<0> i mean hell, ive tried tons of distros
<1> havent tried many newer distros, but most of them have ****ed.
<1> berry linux was nice though.
<0> and well mandriva was good because it was easy but they it ****ed because it crashed every 5 seconds
<1> a FC3/4 based distro on one cd.
<0> and well debian is nice
<0> except setting it up the first time
<1> my first distro with a WM was mandrake 8.1 back in 2001.
<1> before that it was zipslack, and I used it like an hour and destoryed it.
<0> lol
<0> i used mandriva for 3 years
<3> ok
<3> what partitions should be extended
<3> everything but root?
<4> danieldg: the grub-install cmd reported success, but when I rebooted it still went straight into windows
<2> extended is just a name for 5-9
<1> i had to buy anew modem for mandrake
<2> primary is 1-4
<1> but when i got it online it was leet.
<3> it wont let me add any extended now though
<3> apparently
<5> jorvis_: set the partition that you grub-installed on as bootable
<1> it had TUXRACER *clap*
<3> you have to add them before going onto the next primary
<5> jorvis_: that or try grub-install /dev/hda
<3> 'you must delete some partition and add an extended partition first"
<2> ppj1010: IIRC, you've got to add it as partition number 4
<3> oh
<3> n
<2> the extended partition link that is
<5> actually it doesn't have to be 4, it just has to be one of the first 4
<3> you rock
<5> I'd use LVM instead of multiple partitons though
<3> stop
<5> then you can do online resize
<3> im on a roll here dont through a broom in my wheelchair spoke
<5> ok, just note that it's a pain to switch to LVM once you get installed
<3> i dont know how to make these lvm
<3> in fdisk
<5> you don't - they are made from linux
<5> you make one large partition, and make it of type LVM
<3> the distro hast o have it in the installer through right
<6> scense from a hat!
<6> woot quiznos
<3> im doing linux from scratch
<5> ppj1010: how are you running the fdisk commands?
<1> wewt
<7> hey i was wondering why directx cant be ported to linux?
<3> completely console
<3> havent even installed linux ytet
<5> ppj1010: a linux liveCD?
<3> yeah
<5> ok, then try ...
<3> tis confusing as piss
<3> i can change system name
<3> is that what it is
<3> i see LVM in there
<5> man pvcreate
<3> but i saw something that says the boot cannot be an LVM
<5> right
<5> you need one boot (or root) partition, and one LVM partition
<3> didnt do anything, i cant get out of fdisk
<8> anyone in here have any exp. with WebVCR+?
<8> sudo ./listings.pl
<8> Gettings listings for XMLTV
<8> Listings not updated in listings.pl!
<8> I do not get this....
<2> ppj1010: q is quit
<3> oh
<3> ok trying man pvcreate
<5> ppj1010: I have mine as a 2GB / and a 110GB LVM partiton
<3> does boot need to be that big
<3> my book says 200mb
<5> no, /boot can be really small
<5> I had all of / (root partition) on mine
<3> basically the MBR in windows terms sits there right
<3> thats it
<9> Does anyone know where named writes its traces?
<2> I like a 4.7G boot/root, that I drop onto a DVD occasionally.
<3> why
<5> why to who?
<1> anyone seen alllinuxcd.com?
<3> pvcreate gave me a document
<1> I don't know if those prices are real or not.
<1> if they are, I'm buyin an ***load of them.
<10> Hmm, I seem to have a lot of corrupted files...
<5> ppj1010: you'll want to use pvcreate on the LVM partition
<3> do i need to go back in fdisk and delete the other partitions
<10> A couple distfiles are corrupted.
<5> ppj1010: then vgcreate, then lvcreate
<10> Oh well, not hard to rm them and emerge --resume
<5> ppj1010: yes, and replace them with a single one for the LVM
<3> boot+lvm
<5> (don't replace /boot of course)
<5> having / on LVM is a tiny bit harder I think
<3> ok 250mb boot and 39g lvm
<3> i think i got it LVM
<3> system ID is lvm
<5> yep. then you'll need to and create the LVM itself
<11> hey... does anyone know how to boot from a FUSE file system?
<10> http://www.killersites.com/ lol
<12> aight
<12> :D
<12> tryin' out deb at tha hizouse
<3> what do i do with vgcreate
<3> i did pvcreate /dev/hda2
<3> which is my lvm
<3> oh
<3> vgcreate is just naming?
<5> bytenik: total guess: you'd need an initrd that starts the fuse process, and then pivots over to that as root
<5> ppj1010: yes
<4> danieldg: I tried "grub-install /dev/hda" and it said "Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time ....... /dev/mapper/casper-snapshot does not have any corresponding BIOS drive"
<5> ppj1010: then lvcreate is for the actual partitions
<5> jorvis_: that's fine
<11> danieldg: Hah, that's actually not bad... i hadn't thought of that at all
<3> i dont get
<4> danieldg: ok, I was just worried because the return value was 1.
<3> vgcreate, i did vgcreate /dev/hda2
<4> so just reboot then?
<5> bytenik: well, I've never done anything like that, just what I remember from howtos on encrypted root
<3> it says please enter physical volume names
<5> jorvis_: sure, try it
<3> do i have to name them all?
<5> physical volume is /dev/hda2
<5> the lvcreate needs names for your partitions, and their sizes
<4> man, I'm supposed to be preparing a cl***, not trying to get back into my OS. :)
<3> when i type vgcreate /dev/hda2 it tells me i need to enter volume names
<9> Does anyone know where named writes its traces?
<5> ppj1010: try running vgcreate lvm_vg /dev/hda2
<5> where lvm_vg is the name of the LVM group
<3> yeat hats it
<5> then, use lvcreate to put partitions on it
