<0> never knew so much things about my pc as tonight
<1> you'll learn more
<0> it was like compenetrating
<2> SJr|nx: It's like that for a lot of distros today
<2> cocaine_eyes: CD iso?
<2> Or DVD?
<0> cd
<2> 4690451806967ff5050a8bff11544456 debian-31r2-i386-binary-1.iso
<0> thats the file
<2> That's the md5 checksum for the first ISO
<2> The 4690blahblah
<0> ok
<0> i should check it with the txt file on the cd
<0> no no no ... hey ..
<2> No, you check the iso you downloaded with an md5sum check program
<0> yes thats what i was about to say
<1> who really md5's there downloads
<0> thats the number rite next to the file
<0> ..
<0> yep . thats the number
<2> So it all checks out?
<0> so is there another way of installing debian if the debian doesnt recognize the cd ?
<0> (dvdrw)
<0> could i install it with the installation cd from the iso file located in a fat32 partition ?
<2> cocaine_eyes: Try Ubuntu
<3> Hello
<0> ubuntu it is then
<0> ..
<0> 6.06 is the latest
<0> ?
<4> yo.
<0> lol .. written over the ubuntu distr. on their web page : linux for human beings
<2> cocaine_eyes: It's debian for the m***es
<2> cocaine_eyes: And has excellent hardware detection
<0> you think ubuntu would manage better in detectin my hw if debian didnt ?
<4> yes.
<2> Yep
<0> omg .. i should print screen cus im never going to have a download rate like this ever
<4> Redragon^: you around
<5> someone there to helpp me?
<6> hi all, really unfamiliar with windows networking and samba for that matter
<6> still learning but hoping that i can get some insight here
<2> LadyByte: Tell mARCOS-_^ about smart questions
<2> gregg--: Ask away
<5> ok...i download firefox...i descompressed...but i cant ejecute
<2> mARCOS-_^: Distro?
<5> in mandrake 8.0
<6> if there is an existing samba server on a windows network with its shares mapped to drive letters on the windows workstations - would it possible to set up a new samba server, copy all the data over, create the same samba config, turn off the old samba server and give the new one the old IP address? would that cause any problems or would the workstations just start using the new server automatically?
<2> mARCOS-_^: No
<2> mARCOS-_^: You are not using Mandrake 8.0
<5> not now ;)
<7> stupid freaking bot
<2> mARCOS-_^: Go download something made this decade
<5> so?
<2> mARCOS-_^: It's not secure
<2> gregg--: It shouldn't be a problem
<5> dont matter...is to learn a bit..then i have to install ubuntu to test
<2> gregg--: That would basically be mirroring
<2> mARCOS-_^: It matters to us
<2> mARCOS-_^: And since we are the people "helping" you, you'll either do as we say or you won't get any help here.
<5> ok dont help me..thats ok.. go ****
<8> heh
<4> I just might.
<4> UNF
<2> mARCOS-_^: Clue up
<5> so someone who explain me?
<4> no one can explain you. however, someone might be able to explain things -to- you.
<2> mARCOS-_^: Nobody is going to help you with an antiquated, insecure, unsupported distro
<4> mARCOS-_^: unless you've got a very good reason not to, you should upgrade.
<4> it's like running Windows 98 then complaining about missing features.
<5> is for a job ..i have to test some distros
<2> BS
<8> bronaugh: think i've still got 3.1 lying around here somewhere
<5> so?
<2> so upgrade
<5> ok go **** anyway...so what distro do you use?
<2> Ubuntu
<4> debian unstable
<2> And Debian
<4> and uhh. debian unstable. and some more debian unstable.
<8> no comment
<5> reality I have Ubuntu 64 version to install ...but the pc that hace mandrake is to old so i have to install mandrake 8.0
<6> mirroring?
<4> mARCOS-_^: and quit swearing.
<2> mARCOS-_^: Define old
<6> only mirroring that i deal with right now is raid1
<6> didnt know there was such a thing for windows file serving
<2> mARCOS-_^: The 64 bit version only goes on 64 bit processors.
<5> reality pentium III 450Mhz 64Mb
<4> mARCOS-_^: err. why are you installing on that?
<4> it'll be fine if you don't try and run a GUI - in fact, it'll be great.
<4> but unless you intend on upgrading the amount of RAM -- don't try anything graphical.
<4> it'll work but it'll be slow.
<2> mARCOS-_^: Xubuntu will easily run on that
<5> reality read well! i said mandrake in the old PC .... UBUNtu 64 in AMD 64
<2> mARCOS-_^: Read yourself. You never said anything about an AMD 64
<4> mARCOS-_^: and he's saying, download xubuntu for ia32 and run that on the Pentium 3.
<2> mARCOS-_^: And again, read again, Xubuntu will run on a Pentium 3
<5> reality oki I will do that...its free ? where can i get?
<2> xubuntu.com
<2> 64 megs of ram required...128 recommended
<5> ok tnks ...but i will lose a lot of time...cause i live in argentina
<2> You'll lose more time if your system is compromised and you have to reinstall it all
<5> they send me the CD no?
<4> download the image and burn the CD.
<1> How can I check the link speed and duplex of a ethernet adapter again?
<5> mmmm i preffer debian could be?
