kernel with IPTables module
by Mahesh Gharat 05 Feb '02

05 Feb '02

Hello Everybody, I'm using Redhat Linux 7.1(kernel 2.4.2-2) and Freeswan 1.91. I recompiled the kernel for the IPSec-VPN.My IPSec module gets installed perfectly and eth0 and eth1 interface are up but I want use IPTables with it.I can see ipsec0 interface and run all the ipsec related commands that means IPSsec is working perfectly. Even though I select IPTables while configuring.Those modules didn't get loaded in the kernel.I can see the listing of those modules in the /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ directory. I tried to load those modules manualy by using insmod command #insmod ip_tables but gave the error /lib/modules/2.4.2-2 /kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: unresolved symbol nf_unregister_sockopt Can someone tell me where I went wrong. Or should I select different options from the kernel config while recompiling? Thanx in Advance. -Mahesh Gharat

Significance of 1024 cylinders during Linux installation
by Sudhir Sharma 05 Feb '02

05 Feb '02

Hai Everyone, While installing linux, I was prompted to have the primary partition within the first 1024 cylinders. What is the significance of this message? This happened when I was installing in dual OS mode with Win 2000 as the other OS. This never happened with the previous versions of windows. Is it to do anything with the partition size. If yes, then why not with other versions of windows as I could install linux having win98 with the same size partitions. Advance thanks for your answer.

Re: [ILUG-BOM] [LINK] - Animated LILO boot screen: penguins

hmm..slightly away from the topic...but yet...related to LILO :) is there any way i can change the prompt name?? like say instead of LILO: i want it MYPROMPT: linuxers(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in wrote: http://www.gamers.org/~quinet/lilo Since mid-2001, most Linux distributions include some patched versions of LILO (the LInux LOader) that support VGA or VESA graphical modes and make it possible to have a nice background image while booting.

486DX2/66 With 8MB RAM
by Vinay Pai 03 Feb '02

03 Feb '02

Hi Linuxers, I was wondering if I can reasonably run X on a 486 with 8 MB RAM, and run a GTK+ program. I don't need the whole of Gnome to run, and will need to run only a single program. It perfectly acceptible if it takes 5 minutes to load, and thrashes like crazy for a few minutes before settling down. Basically need to write some software for an event in college. I'll get at least one P-III with lots of RAM and hard disk space which I intend to use as a server, with rest of the (recycled) machines network booting. Vinay
