Of course. You told it to copy everything over EXACTLY. That includes file
system size etc.
Better would have been to copy over the files, rather than to use dd.

Building 2.6.10 kernel for Debian and ncurses

Posted: 20 Jan 2005 02:58 PM PST

In comp.os.linux.setup, John Beardmore uttered these immortal words:
 

No. I don't use one on my Gentoo systems.

You must make sure that every module that's needed
before /lib/modules/$KERNEL_VERSION is available such as file system
modules are built in to the kernel rather than as a module.

You are right, and the other post repliers as well: I think the
Vectorlinux installer can manage everything itself, I just tried it out on
a test machine. So thanks to all those who replied, it is a lot easier
than I thought it would be!

I am making the switch to Vectorlinux SOHO v5 simply because it is so much
faster than Mandrake in many ways, has everything I need and has a great
community of users/developers on its forum. http://www.vectorlinux.com

Upgrade RH Linux 7.1 to 9-will it keep existing applications?

Don't do that. RPM itself, and glibc and gcc and the kernel, upgraded
significantly between RH 7.1 and RH 9. It's really a lot safer to do it as a
forklift upgrade rather than trying to recompile the SRPM's to install them
under RH 7.1.

There is a way to back down - you can specify --reinstall in apt-get

But hi statement is false. It works fine, and he doesn't. Given that
conjunction of capabilities, the best answer indeed is probably
"reinstall" or "find somebody capable who can decide what you think is
'wrong' and fix it in five minutes".
 

Hey, I'm still on potato! I have no difficulty installing anything -
I serve as the boat anchor telling package maintainers not to up their
dependency requirement statements for no flipping reason.
