 I've noticed a few people have asked this already, but noone seems to want
 to help, so I'm going to ask again.. I want to use RSYNC to get only the
 newest files when they are changed, but I'm uncertain, even after man
rsync,
 on how to proceed..

 I mirror ftp.linuxberg.com 's Mandrake folder, and now I want to use the
 following to update: rsync://rpmfind.net::linux/MandrakeCooker ..

 So, what should I do? Thanks in advance for any assistance you might
give..

Re: [Cooker] Oxygen upgrade difficulties

If, like me, don't want to keep on installing o/s such as *cough* windows
every time, then getting another hard drive or 2 is ideal. a little
expensive I know.but a price to pay for retaining data.

 This might sound like "nuts" but are these people backing up their data
when
 installing the upgrade over their original?

 Just curious...lmao already read some posts were people actually think
"beta"
 means "final release" for some reasonlol.

  When trying to perform an upgrade from 6.1 (Helios), it reports an

  should select another.  I am then informed there is no valid root
  partition, and it sends me back to the inability to read partition table
  dialog.  This occurs both in Custom and Expert modes.
 
  My partition table is attached as is the dmesg output and the relevant
  messages from the third VC.
 
  /dev/hda2 is indeed not a root partition, it mounts as /boot (as many
  people who must dual boot have done due to BIOS limitations).  But, I am
  not being given the option of selecting the correct partition.

Re: [Cooker] Installing for default boot to 2.2.14-11

1999-12-29 Thread Prashant Meswani

First of all, you will need to ensure that you are using 2.2.13 as your base
kernel source tree (not necessarily as your default kernel). Once done, copy
the patched kernel to /usr/src/source-tree directory and type in the
following:-

if the file is a .gz file type

gzip -d patch-file.gz.

If the file is a .gz2 file sorry I don't know how to do this.

once the file has been decompressedtype

patch -p1  patch-file

NOTE: replace the word patch-file with the name of the file you are using. I
think the -d command works with gzip2but don't quote me on this.

[Cooker] rsyncing under windows

1999-12-29 Thread Prashant Meswani

I know it is a crime to do this, especially whilst this is a linux
discussion group. But I have managed to get rsync working under evil
windows. For those of you who don't know what rsync is but know what ftp is.
Just imagine ftp with muscle power. Rsync does everything that ftp should
have done from the start, which include compressing files whilst
downloading. Recursive downloading (i.e. downloading subdirectories).
Rsyncing on any platform rules.

(linux communityforgive me for my sins, as I was only experimenting).
BTW, I am downloading the latest contributions directory for mandrake 7.
