With two hard drives -- one for Debian and one for Window$ -- this is
trivial; I do it routinely.

The use of a separate cable for each drive is nice, but it is not

essential with modern motherboards.  If I recall correctly, modern
motherboards incorporate an independent controller for each drive, so
that there is no performance penalty if two drives are attached to the



same cable.<br><br>I have no experience with XP, but with W2000 it doesn&#39;t matter whether<br>you install Debian first or Window$ first.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, if you do install<br>Debian first and wish to ensure that Window$ cannot mess up the


system, simply unplug the Debian drive before you install Window$.

You need not worry about Debian messing up the Window$ installation
(apart from the fact that GRUB is going to replace whatever boot
manager Window$ may install).


Partitioning in Window$ and partitioning in Debian are independent,
UNLESS you put both operating systems on the same drive.  But
considering the pitfalls and the low price of drives, I think it
generally foolish to put both operating systems on the same drive.

Can we help you?X



If you install Window$ first and subsequently install Debian, GRUB
takes care of everything, automatically, and leaves you with a boot
menu which includes both Debian and Window$.

But if you install Debian first and then install Window$, Window$ may

install its own boot manager in place of GRUB.  But that's not a
problem; all you need to do in that event is boot Debian and, from a
command line prompt within Debian, reinstall GRUB, whereupon
everything again is taken care of automatically.  Of course, in this

event you need to use a GRUB boot CD to boot Debian.  So once Debian
is running, make it a priority to burn yourself a GRUB boot CD.

To see how to burn a GRUB boot CD and how to reinstall GRUB, take a
look at the GRUB man page or the GRUB manual.  Or just google a bit.

Can't find what you're looking for?X

Strictly speaking, those comments are wrong and (the one I read)
come from not very well informed people. But they actually have a
point, I believe that there may be far too much
concern about the security thing. The problem is that you never
know when the bad thing is going to happen. I stated before in
this list that I wouldn't have much trouble with my neighbours
connecting my network for a limited usage; I still hold this but I
changed my mind about allowing that to happen, after all we do not
live in an ideal world.

That can only happen if you leave the network completely open,
i.e. no encryption whatsoever. If, after all, you are not
concerned about security, you can just set WEP and you don't have
to hide any ssid. To be honest, when I first set my network up I
did actually hide the ssid broadcast, only to realize that it gave
me some problems and solved none. 



On the other hand, about my


comment about your neighbours' network overlapping yours because
they don't "see" it...well, in practical terms, I guess it will
always have to be yourself the one worrying with these things; I
doubt many people actually scan the ether in order to decide the
frequency channel of their wifi LAN.

This isn't a direct answer to what ails you, but is worth looking at for
those switching from 2.4.x to the 2.6 kernel.

It will work on any system with libc6 >=3D 2.3.5.  It may work with earlier
versions of libc6.

yeah, I did that, look

No fancy libraries needed, I copy the binary and voila!

hello,

i needed to update our nameserver, now maintaining my own nameserver
is fine but I don't know what procedure to follow if i need to point
our ns a new IP. Having blindly trusted our dns provider to tell me
about eventualities i just told them to update the ip address for the
nameserver and tell me about possible problems. what can i say he told
me everything is fine and now dnsreport.com tells me about mismatched
glue for our nameservers

http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?%26domain%3Dopenforce.com

Do I just have to wait for the parent servers until propagation is
finished or did something go horribly wrong?

thanks

Hello,

NTFS-3G is not listed in Aptitude for 4.0.

Its dependencies include LibC6 >=2.5, which isn't available for 4.0 through
Aptitude either (installed version was 2.3.9?). Manual install by dpkg
failed.

Now, just how exactly could NTFS-3G (and FUSE) be installed safely and
without breaking anything running that already depends on LibC? Or is there
another RW NTFS driver for Debian?

That's correct but it uses a lot of the same features as the k7 with a 
few extra so the k7 is the best fit on a 32 bit install.  There was a 
-k8 kernel on i386 ( and it was reinstated for a while so may still be 
available ) but, you can run into problems with compiling modules, for 
example, as the compiler expects a 64-bit os and bombs out.

What I did after unpacking the .deb it's took the binary from etch and
copy to my LFS based system and works good, step by step copied all the
files relative to the package and try to 'clone' this configuration to
the non-debian box, the result, finally, it's this in the two boxes:

/bin/ksh93
/bin/ksh -> /binksh93
/usr/bin/shcomp
/usr/share/doc/ksh
/usr/share/ksh/functions
/usr/share/man/man1/ksh93.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/shcomp.1.gz
/usr/share/man/fr/man1/shcomp.1.gz
/usr/share/menu/ksh

Best Regards,
Orestes.

Well, it turns out I had the same problem as some other users described 
in other threads.  Editing the 
/etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules file and removing the entries 
there and rebooting did the trick.  Thanks to everyone for their responses.
