| Uh-oh, hard drive migration snafu Posted: 25 Sep 2004 02:10 PM PDT Anonymous Sender wrote: When you started copying whole partitions with dd, you were copying them byte for byte including the filesystem metadata. IOW, your filesystems on the new disk are now the same size as the ones on the old disk. Your larger partitions won't have access to the extra space. Moreover, since you state that you mounted the new partitions, I presume you had already created filesystems on them, which were overwritten with the smaller filesystems from the older drives. Then when you shutdown with the power button, things were probably in a wildly inconsistent state. Who knows what happened with the partitions on /dev/hdb.

It could be the XP box is running a software firewall to ignore incoming pings. I am not running XP, so I can't really advise you about how to disable it. To try to debug this problem, you could connect your linux box to the Netgear switch (unplug a W98 box temporarily) and see if you can ping the W98 boxes from there. If you can ping the other boxes, then that probably means there is something that is not configured correctly on the Netgear router (or some other problem with that segment)- but you would be isolating the problem somewhat. Also, when you have restarted your linux box when connected to the network switch run these commands: # route -n # ifconfig And post the model numbers of the Netgear devices. -- Dallas: What are my chances? http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0078748/quotes |

Go for the professional version if you like suse or install another distro, you don't need to buy it, you can simply copy it from a friend. Sure you can't use the mail/phone? installation support, but all patches are available to you through online update. Perfectly legal. On the other hand you get some printed docs which might be useful in the beginning and suse, like other distro pay some Linux developer, you'd support with buying.
