foremost is not exactly a new tool. It was originally made by the
United States Air Force Office of Special Investigations and The
Center for Information Systems Security Studies and Research , who
have made it available as a free software. Its one of the few forensic
tools available for linux which of course is used for recovering
files.
Many distros (including Debian) provide it as part of their packages.
Their website is here: http://foremost.sourceforge.net/

[ilugd] Fwd: [FSF] FSF Settles Suit Against Cisco

[Raj Mathur]

[Good news: Cisco has agreed to comply with the licences of FOSS they 
use in their Linksys products, and now it should be easier to customise 
images for your routers -- Raju]

--  Forwarded Message  --

Subject: [FSF] FSF Settles Suit Against Cisco
Date: Wednesday 20 May 2009
From: Brett Smith 
To: info-pr...@gnu.org, info-...@gnu.org

BOSTON, Massachusetts, USA -- Wednesday, May 20, 2009 -- The Free
Software Foundation (FSF) and Cisco Systems, Inc. are pleased to
announce that they have reached a joint agreement.

Under the agreement, the FSF has agreed to dismiss its lawsuit against
Cisco.

Cisco has agreed to appoint a Free Software Director for Linksys, a
subsidiary of Cisco, to supervise Linksys' compliance with the
requirements of free software licenses such as the GPL (the GNU
General Public License). The Free Software Director will report
periodically to the FSF regarding Linksys' compliance efforts. Cisco
has further agreed to take certain steps to notify previous recipients
of Linksys products containing FSF programs of their rights under the
GPL and other applicable licenses, to publish a licensing notice on
the Linksys website, and to provide additional notices in a separate
publication. In addition, Cisco will continue to make the complete and
corresponding source code for versions of FSF programs used with
current Linksys products freely available on its website. Cisco will
also make a monetary contribution to the FSF.

The parties recognize Cisco's ongoing obligations under the GPL and
other free software licenses. The FSF will continue to independently
monitor Linksys' compliance with these licenses, and work with
Linksys to resolve any new issues that may arise.

"We are glad that Cisco has affirmed its commitment to the free
software community by implementing additional measures within its
compliance program and dedicating appropriate resources to them,
further reassuring the users' freedoms under the GPL," said Peter
Brown, Executive Director of the FSF. "Our agreement results in
making all of the relevant source code available in the fastest way
possible."

Re: [ilugd] How to increase /root partition size in Ubun tu 8.04

[Neha Sharma]

Hi
I have a system which was dual boot and had the following configuration

/dev/sda1 NTFS
/dev/sda2 NTFS
/dev/sda3 linux
/dev/sda4 extended
/dev/sda5 lvm

The filesystem got crashed, now i am trying to recover it without corrupting
windows partition.
I booted the system in rescue mode and mounted the linux filesystem which
was on lvm in the following way...

bash$ mkdir /new
bash$ mount /dev/mapper/VG00/LogVol00 /new
bash$ reboot

then it came to the grub prompt

grub>

??

now I am not able to understand what to do


Plaese help me with the lvm concepts, so that I can understand and
resolve  the problem.

> Do you recommend putting / on a LVM device?

No. The LVM partitions I maintain are:
/home
/home/music
/home/video
/usr
/usr/local
/tmp
/var
/root
(swap)

No, /boot should not be on LVM.

I personally hate auto-partitioning things (well, for that matter even
auto-installing things). Don't bother with them... even if you want
to, I'm sure most of these CD installers come with manual partitioning
options.

I've been using LVM for over four years now and it works perfectly. I
can add and remove physical hard drives whenever I want without
worrying about repartitioning.

HTH.
