I just exorcised windoze from my comp. Now, Dad uses the comp for mail and
browsing. So, I'd like to have luggers suggestions, about which
mailer/browser to suggest to my Dad. Some obvious options are Evolution,
Balsa, Kmail, Kconq, Mozilla, Opera. I'd choose a Evolution/Opera combo.
What do you say??

Dear Linuxers,
While mounting NTFS partition, mount replied NTFS module not installed in
kernel. Is there any way I can mount it without re-compiling the kernel. I
heard there are some third-party drivers for mounting NTFS partitions. Do
you know any?
Well I tried the following,
mkdir /nt
mount -t ntfs /dev/hda* /nt
Awaiting your replies,
Regards,
Mayur

Hi all,
In the installation of the RHL7.1, I found that it does not
allow me to install Workstation mode in a dual bootable system
with a lilo prompt. So I decided to give cusom setup. But I still
stucked up at the disk partitioning part.
So can somebody tell me how should I partition the disk
& mount it to the different mount points.
My present disk partitions are:
The Disk Druid shows the following chart
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Partitions
Mount Point Device Requested Actual Type
<not set> hda1 3898M 3898M win95 FAT32
<not set> hda5 3859M 3859M win95 FAT32
<not set> hda6 3859M 3859M win95 FAT32
<not set> hda7 3961M 3961M win95 FAT32
Add Edit Delete Reset Make RAID device (BTW wht is RAID)

So I have around 3.8GB for linux.
How much minimum space should I assign to these mount
points:
/
/boot
/usr
/home
/var
/opt
/tmp
/usr/local
Do I need to assign any FAT partition to any mount point
I tried this & found that only /home & /opt are allowed in the
FAT partitons. Will it be OK if I assign them to FAT partition
Thanks & Regards,
SAMEER :))

Pablo,
Check out the handshake required between ur pc and the
remote terminal(server). maybe ur handshake is not
correct or there is some spelling mistake or
something. if it is possible, for the remote host ur r
dialing to, to monitor its connections ask them to do
so. set up a time when some admin guy will sit at the
terminal there and see if u are actually talking
properly with that server there!
i dont think having an old modem is the cause of the
trouble. check out the protocol ur using. :)

Dear Friends,
Yesterday I tried to install Red Hat Linux (RHL) 7.1 on
my m/c. Everything goes fine abt detecting kbd & mouse. After
that I start with system installer with the workstation mode
for the installation. The next step was the Disk Partitioning.
Let me tell u 1st abt my disk partitioning. I have 20GB
hdd with 4 partiton of approx 4GB with FAT32 (total 16GB) for
windows & remaining 4GB is left free for Linux.
Drive Disk Space SetAS
C 4GB pri dos
D 4GB logical | In
E 4GB logical | Extended DOS
F 4GB logical |
& remaining 4GB is free for Linux.
I AM UNABLE TO INSTALL LINUX ON THIS FREE SPACE. I'm STUCK UP
AT THIS PLACE.
Here the Auto partitioning failed (in workstation mode,
other options r server, laptop & custom mode) giving the resion
that, " There is not sufficient disk space in order to automatically
partition your disk space. You will need to manually partition
your disk for RHL to install." Giving 2 options for disk partioning
1st manually partition with Disk Druid & 2nd with fdisk (expert mode)
The Disk Druid shows the following chart
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Partitions
Mount Point Device Requested Actual Type
<not set> hda1 3898M 3898M win95 FAT32
<not set> hda5 3859M 3859M win95 FAT32
<not set> hda6 3859M 3859M win95 FAT32
<not set> hda7 3961M 3961M win95 FAT32
Add Edit Delete Reset Make RAID device (BTW wht is RAID)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Drive Summery
Device Geom [c/h/s] Total(M) Free(M) Used(M) used (%)
hda [2481/255/63] 19461M 3883M 15578M 80 %
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If I try to mount the entire free disk space (3883MB)
as linux native with mount point as / (root) then the system
gives the message that, " There are currently unallocated
partition(s) in the list of requested partitions. The unallocated
partition(s) are as shown below, along with the reason they
are not allocated.
/ Not enough free space "
...& the installation get aborted & I need to reboot the system.
How can I come out of this? & make the partition for root
swap & home
2nd thing if I try to assign swap partition (let it b 1mb
or 128 mb) from the free space of hda device the Disk Druid
chart show Requested is 128MB & Actual is 2047MB & free space
remains is only 1836MB. The same happend even if i assign swap
of just 1MB. here only requested mem changes & other parameters
remains same.
Why is this happening?
Thanks & Regards,
SAMEER:))
