I am looking for the boot files necessary to boot a NCD15B, a 15-inch
monochrome display producd by NCD in the early 90s, off a tftp
server. If anyone has any ideas as to how to go about this,
especially if you know where I can find the neccessary files please
let me know.

Thanks Mark, I will wait on the DNS. I do want to get into it but one
step at a time.
The windows machines can't get the IP address from the domain name I
put in the browser. I think I understand this - they would have to
know the number of the machine (the Linux server) to go and read the
hosts file and resolve the address to the IP #. Then I can assume it
is a setting on the windows side? How would I do this?
Thanks

Advice sought on practicality of a new linux user (me!) setting up HP
5100c scanner; Epson FS 200 with DTC 3181/DTC3151X SCSI Host Adaptor;
Yamaha DS-XG PCI sound card.
Hi,
I have have had Mandrake 6.5 installed on my AMD 400 dual boot system
for around 2 weeks. The installation went smoothly and after some
re-setting of jumpers I succeeded in getting the modem to work in
Linux and W95. My Epson Photo 700 printer seems to work perfectly,
as does my S3 Virge DX video card. (I had to take out a AGP card I'd
been using) My MS Intelli Mouse also works very well, with the
wheel working in Gnome applications. So overall the installlation
has been quite a success.
I want some advice on which of these devices listed above would be the
easiest to for a new user to get working. Ideally I would like to
get all three going but I'd settle for less! If I could get the HP
5100c going then I could use the Gimp graphics program. Of the
three items I've mentioned the HP 5100c would be of the most use to
me.
***Right now I'm thinking that my overall level of knowledge about
Linux is so limited that I would have trouble installing any of these
items unless I can find a very specific step by step list of what to
do.*** Perhaps I need to do some more reading up of how-tos
and buy a good book first, and come back to setting up the scanners
and sound card in a month or two?? I have not mentioned what I have
already done getting Sane and SCSI patches etc, just need some advice
first about whether I'm trying to run before being able to walk (-:

Subject: Bug in SCSI/st driver ?? (problems doing a backup to HPShureStoreDAT24e using
'tar')
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2000 08:37:48 -0000
I'm using Linux 2.2.18pre21 (now) in my system, a dual PII 350 with an
Adaptec AHA-2940U2 SCSI board, the same problem i'm reporting has been
detected in 2.2.17
While trying to make a backup of my system to an HPShureStoreDAT24e
(Model:C1537A Rev:L907), the 'tar' always aborts with errors beeing reported
to syslog. Is the SCSI bad configured ? Is a kernel bug ?? Is anyone else in
similar hardware/software situation without problems ??
TIA

Not that I'm aware of, but there may be someone out there who's
bothered to reverse engineer the thing; poke about in deja.com and
google to see if you can find anything.
This printer is clearly identified as a "GDI; Windows Printing" device
on Xerox's website, so it's pretty sure that none of the usual laser
drivers will suit.

The latest version of lilo (including that shipped with RH7.0) does not

Subject: LI hangup after upgrade from RH6.1 to 6.2
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2000 09:48:45 GMT
I upgraded my RH6.1 (woked fine since now) to RH6.2. When system boot
lilo
hangs up at LI . Lilo's User_guide.ps says that it should mean that the
first
stage boot loader was able to load the second stage boot loader but has
failed
to execute it. It also adds that this kind of error might be due to a
geometry
mismatch or to the moving of /boot/boot.b without running the map
installer.
So I tried to run lilo to fix up things, but nothing happened. What I
suppose
is that the new kernel was put beyond the 1024th cilinder even though my
disk
geometry is the following:
Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1247 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes

Try to check "/etc/services" whether you have set another service to same

If not, you can try uninstall all ftp services and re-install wu-ftp.

Right. You don't mount them, you read and write streams to them. For

For RH62 , try installing using the text based setup.
The large HD might be the problem. Try using CHS values , non LBA ,

Subject: Difficult to install Linux
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2000 10:52:07 GMT
Hi,
I am a beginner on learning Linux. In my PC, I've already installed
Win98. Now I also want to install linux 5.0 in order to dual-boot
between 2 os. But every time when i am going on the last stage of
installation-- ----"Lilo setup", whatever i do , Lilo can't be
installed. If i choose to use SCSI device, it looks like being ok.
But when the computer reboots, i can only see many blinking lines on my
screen, which means i can neither work on win98, nor Linux.
If i choose not to use SCSI device, Lilo can't be installed and SETUP
can't be finished.
Because there are some bad sectors on my hard-disk, i wonder whether
Lilo is just going to be installed on those bad sectors, which leads
the problem i get stuck in.
There is anyone to help me to point out the reason and a way to solve
this problem.
(There is no any SCSI device on my computer.)
Thanks!

I've got a system with a SCSI hard drive. I just added a second drive
this time IDE.
After tweeking my NT install, I reboot to discover I get a kernel
panic. OK no problem, I added the hard rive to get more space for
linux so instead of fixing the problenm and then shuffling files
between partitions I just reinstall linux ( Mandrake 7.1) from
scratch.
When I boot I see Li appear on the bottom then nothing.
OK, I use System Commander which was overwritten by Linux.
I reinstall System Commander. Use an emergency boot disk to boot
into linux. Change the boot to /dev/sda9 in lilo.conf reinstall.
When I boot, it prints LI then freeses ( PS hard drive 9 gigs,
last 2 gigs are an NT partition, so that I'm within 8g).
The only clue I get is that lilo prints a warning that /dev/sda9
is not on the first disk.
Any ideas?
