external storage for RHEL2.1 Cluster

The critical part isn't the storage but the hba/driver issue.

IMO best choice at the moment (concerning SAN), qlogic hba with
self-compiled qlogic provided (src) driver. It does redundant
multipathing directly through the driver saving you from using md
devices if you need mp and allows to rescan for new SAN LUNs
without rebooting.

Good luck

How do you reset the Master Boot Record?

You can use your Win9X bootdisk. Boot from that, fdisk /mbr. That
should clean your mbr. Use your linux bootdisk/or CD(if you can and
know how to use that as a bootdisk). Just re-install your bootloader.

http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search , group comp.os.linux.x ,
keyword "xbindkeys", and read the messages there that'll tell you how to
set it up and configure its xbindkeysrc file. If you can figure out how
to tell the computer to do something on the command line, you can make
xbindkeys do that with a key (or key combination, or mouse button)
press.
 

man showkey loadkeys
man 5 keymaps

....but really, you have X, so don't bother with the virtual terminals.
xterm/konsole is much better then a virtual terminal since it's
dynamically resizable, has persistent history, and so forth. IMHO,
virtual terminals should be used only when necessary (disaster recovery,
initial installation, machine with little RAM/CPU).
 

Doesn't exist. X is totally different from a virtual terminal.
 

This might also be useful.

As the error message says, you need to rebuild initrd, with your

$70 for a terminator? The EXB-8505 is just a regular 50-pin device, and
looking at the product manual
(http://www.mwtss.com/Reference%20Library/Exabyte/Exabyte%208505.pdf)
appears to use resistor packs for termination. Check that these are
in place, and if you have any other devices on the same cable, make sure
they come before the tape drive and are not themselves terminated.

If the tape drive doesn't have the terminators, put another deive after it
on the cable and ternminate that device. Or add a simple passive
terminator to the cable.

It was news to me when I read it, however, I was quoting from the

The manuals are in hard copy and on the distro cds, although I have not

When I came across this I concluded that as suggested in this Guide,
linux may react differently to my (previous) windowbox experiences.

From command line type:
fdisk -l (the last caracter in an "L")
and look at the name of your swap partition (eg. /dev/hda2)
then make sure it's not mounted:
swapoff /dev/hda2
next format your swap partition with:
mkswap /dev/hda2
activate your swap partition:
swapon /dev/hda2
and at last make sure you have the following line in your /etc/fstab file:
/dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0

Good luck,

Either the kernel is too old, or you need to load the driver. If you use
Woody, check what kernel is installed (uname -r). If it is 2.2.2
(-idepci), upgrade to the latest 2.4.18-1 packages from
security.debian.org. Don't forget to configure lilo to use the initrd
that comes with that kernel. If you already use 2.4.18, upgrade to
2.4.27 from <http://www.backports.org>.

Not under RedHat and a bunch of other Linux distributions.
/usr/bin/run-parts is part of the crontabs package, called by an entry in

Is there a DiVX codec for Linux?

Moz wrote: 

One often installs xine or mplayer and downloads dozens of codecs from

http://mplayerhq.hu/

The download link is here

http://mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/dload.html

The installation of the codecs is very easy: Create a directory /usr/lib/bin32
and unpack all the codecs into this directory.

The next time you you start xine or mplayer, they will both support many many
codecs including windows codecs, realplayer, quicktime and and and.

The installation of xine and mplayer is a little tricky but there are good
chances that your distributor provides packages for one of those players.

xine has the advantage, that it has a fine userinterface, mplayer is more stable
and reliable.

Trouble creating root filesystem on 1.44MB diskette

"Peter T. Breuer" <it.uc3m.es> wrote in message
news:it.uc3m.es... 

HALLELUJAH!! I did indeed have support built in. The whole problem it turns
out was that in my syslinux.cfg file, I only had:
default linux
append root=/dev/fd0

It turns out I needed to also have: load_ramdisk=1
!!

Is using rdev and a bootloader mutually exclusive? When I created the image
to go on the disk, the 'make bzdisk' also did a syslinux for me. I hadn't
realized it at the time (and I was reading the steps from an old book) and
so I also did an rdev on it: 49152, but that ruined the disk. Then I read
that rdev is obsolete and I should use either syslinux or lilo. (Syslinux
was already on the disk).
Another step I tried was removing the syslinux and then just dd'ing the
bootimage onto the disk and then doing rdev. But upon booting the system, I
got a message saying that this isn't supported anymore and that I need a
boot loader! So that was a dead-end.

So I'm just curious how I could have used rdev now...
I guess the next thing is to try a CD Rom.

Thanks for all your help! Now i know the dd command inside-out... whew. what
a workout!
