[Cooker] Building athlon kernel rpm from src.rpm
Hi! I'm trying to build rpms compiled for athlon using the cooker kernel-2.4.20.2mdk-1-1mdk.src.rpm package. When I give the command: rpmbuild --rebuild --target=athlon kernel-2.4.20.2mdk-1-1mdk.src.rpm the process crashes after a couple of minutes... Is this the correct command? I have also tried using --target=athlon-gnu-linux with the same results :( Thanx, Mario
[Cooker] Building athlon kernel rpms from src.rpm (continued)
Hi!
I'm trying to build rpms compiled for athlon using the cooker
kernel-2.4.20.2mdk-1-1mdk.src.rpm package.
When I give the command:
rpmbuild --rebuild --target=athlon kernel-2.4.20.2mdk-1-1mdk.src.rpm
the process crashes after a couple of minutes...
Is this the correct command? I have also tried using
--target=athlon-gnu-linux
with the same results :(
Thanx,
Mario
PS: This is the point where it crashes:

[Cooker] hard drive install without a floppy drive
Hi everybody, I need a little advice before I install cooker on a separate partition on my home computer. I already have all of cooker mirrored on a reiserfs partition on my hard drive, so I am all set for a hard drive install using hd.img. Except I don't have a floppy drive. Since the installation may or may not be successful, I don't particularly feel like using MakeCD to create a complete set of install CDs. What would you recommend? Can I burn a bootable CD with hd.img on it? Such a CD would be valid for a lot longer than a standard install CD. Can I put the contents of hd.img on my hard drive, and use lilo to boot from it? Thanks, and merry Christmas to all of you, Narfi.

Just ctrl-alt-bkspc and tell it start X on boot and all is fine. 4) Default package choices very different (i.e. Webmin not default) Didn't really notice that. Theres more, but these were the obvious ones. I'm not sure if the install routine is currently under major change.

Re: X Font error
Stew, I had this configuration working before. Could you please list what I should have for bootx and in linux ? I currently have the following setup: bootx root=/dev/sdb7 ramdisk size 4096 ramdisk macos/system folder/linux kernels/initrd... How do I build an initrd that will work ? - Original Message - From: Stew Benedict [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 24, 2002 13:29 Subject: Re: X Font error On Wed, 25 Dec 2002, Alex Horvath wrote: Hi All. installed mdk-ppc 8.2 from ISOs, and I have a couple of problems. 1st, major, sice i can't do much now: When I try to start X, I get the following error: Fatal server error Could not open default font 'fixed' sound like xfs is not running XIO fatal IO error 104 (connection reser by peer) on X server :0.0 after 0 requests (0 processed) with 0 events remaining. -- X worked fine, but it crashed and when I rebooted I got this error.

The kernels in the boot folder have the same names as those on the CD, are they different with the same names, or the same. If they are different, I think copying the CD one over will fix the problem. Not the kernel, initrd. You need one with the proper modules for that controller in it. Are you booting from BootX? If so, you need to build an initrd on the Linux side and get it over to MacOS.

Re: X Font error
Stew, It was the X Font Server. I disabled it by accident in linuxconf. X Works fine now. Next problem, I installed the Mandrake Internet Connection Sharing server, and it works. i need to know a couple of things though: is there a firewall installed by default ? where would I find the script for it if there is one, and if not, how would you recommend adding one (I have a cople of scripts that I can use, I just don't know where to add them) Also, I need port forwarding for a couple of ports (vnc and FTP first of all), how do i add this functionality ? Is there a graphical tool for this ? Thanks, and merry Christmas!
