Hello,
Is there an nfs bug in 2.2.16? When I try to mount a network drive on a
machine running RH 6.1, 2.2.16 with knfsd-1.4.7-7 from a box running RH
6.0 2.2.14 with knfsd-1.2.2-4 using 'mount -t nfs locust:/home/kim
/nfs/locust', I get an error: 'mount: RPC: Program not registered'. It
works when I try to mount another network drive running the kernel
2.2.14, RH 6.1, and knfsd-1.4.7-7. The only apparent difference is the
kernel version. Is this fixed in the released kernels, or do I need to
try 2.4?
Thanks,
Ken

Under Linux: not in detail 8-S Still seeking a capable I/O benchmark
(for the console) which measures harddisk and network performance. Any
tips?
Nevertheless, the benefit in saving harddisk seeks while scanning
through directories is easily perceivable. I suppose about 10% to 30%
higher speed (and lower noise, both depending on what kind of harddisks
you use) when trying to find files and maybe between 1% and 4% when
sequentially reading the files. (Compared to a rather fragmented
filesystem).
Some people even reported some higher values (much more than 10%), but I
wouldn't like to overstate it. In general, the values should be
comparable between all filesystems. You probably shouldn't expect
general speed improvements of 50% or more in any real-world scenario, no
matter which filesystem you use (though such a scenario could be
constructed). And don't forget the cache, which usually assists indeed.

Backups are always a great idea 8-) , but they can't really help on
file fragmentation. It used to work basically on dumb filesystems like
(V)FAT, where all new files were usually put side by side when restoring
them from a backup onto an empty disk. Nevertheless, using that way,
only the files were restored unfragmented while the directories were
usually not. Most programs didn't create them in advance but just when
they were encountered during the restore. That means, that directories
were scattered heavily across the disk.
Filesystems like ext2fs and NTFS4 use to scatter even files across the
disk when writing them one by one. This leads to file fragmentation
earlier than it would do on old, dumb filesystems. Especially when
smaller and larger files are admixed and the disk is more than about 50%
filled. This method may still alleviate file fragmentation a bit but it
can't replace the fundamental need for defrag programs. Besides,
defragmenting should still be faster than a complete backup and restore,
no matter to what extent the disk is fragmented.
Have a nice day.

Hi,
I have the strangest problem with gFTP (ver. 2.0.7.b running on a Red
Hat 7.0 PC system): when I transfer HTML files from my website to the PC
the content is corrupted. HTML tags (especially links) are partially
copied and pasted randomly, and the file size increases by a couple of
hundred bytes.
Upon starting gFTP prints the message "Opening BINARY data mode", and
in fact images do not seem to be affected. Changing to ASCII transfer
mode does not help, BTW.
Any suggestions for a solution or a link to a more stable/compatible FTP
application is appreciated.
TIA,

Is there no NS6.0 browser only? yeah, there is, I think. IIRC, when I installed
it, I could choose which components I wanted it to isntall. Not that I

When booting up LILO needs to access the disk via BIOS calls. The BIOS disk
interface can only access disk cylinders 0 - 1023. The problem is in the way
the boot-up disk access is defined in the BIOS - the loader or OS can do
little at it.
You should have a small (8 - 16 MB) partition at the very beginning of the
disk (starting from cylinder 0) which is for Linux ext2 filesystem and to be
mounted as /boot. All files LILO needs for booting up will be set up to
/boot.
There is a problem if there is already an OS (Win*** for instance) on the
disk. It is fairly probable that the other OS is occupying all of cylinders
from 0 to 1023. There are programs to move a partition. The safest way,
though, is to build the whole disk over.

There's a program called SoundStudio, available as source, compilable

This problem you are having is clearly outlined in the release notes for

Can you explain to me the benefits of low fragmentation on a
file intensive multiuser multitasking system such as any unix
is, where every x time slices for y number of different users
there is a file i/o request for a completely different file than
is being requested by any of the other users?
You do understand that the effect is *massively* fragmented file
i/o, far greater than any nominal amount of disk fragmentation
that you are speaking of.

Date: Tue, 19 Dec 2000 17:34:56 GMT
I have RH 6.0 installed running kernel v2.2.17. I want to make a boot
disk for my new 2.2.17 kernel. I have a floppy in /dev/fd0 and enter
`mkbootdisk --device /dev/fd0 2.2.17` I get an error looking for
/lib/modules/2.2.17.
That dir doesn't exist because I'm not using modules in my kernel, I
turned it off.
So I mkdir /lib/modules/2.2.17 and run the same mkbootdisk command
again and it fails again looking for /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.17
The only similar file is /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.5-15, as that is the kernel
version with RH 6.0...
I guess I need this file and probably others...
When I compiled 2.2.17 I found /usr/src/linux/System.map and put it in
the /boot dir correctly... Where can I find the vmlinuz-2.2.5-15 and
any other files needed, not sure about the /boot/vmlinux-2.2.5-15...
