I installed Linux on a drive on the sata_sil driver and then installed a 2.6.12-rc1 kernel, which has a working sata_nv driver (and a working forcedeth NIC driver to go with it. You might consider booting with Kanotix http://kanotix.com/files/kanotix64/ currently on 2.6.10 with patches, and using that to compile the kernel you need.

Thanks Javier It is not mounting the same share twice, it is (in someway) binding the mounts (which are already mounted in the /etc/fstab) to the chroot environment. On my original system, installed in January, I have nothing in the fstab to specifically do this but it works. df -h shows details of all the mounted shares in the chroot. However, on the latest install, the shares mount but don't get bound to the chroot. I thought, OK let's specificy the bindings in the /fstab. So I put in a line for each of the eight shares, to bind them to the chroot. First reboot it worked. I then thought let's just bind the /smb directory which is the mount point for the samba shares. This didn't work but when I reverted to binding the individual shares something really weird happened: df -h gave all the lines of the chroot shares but all with the same size, use and available space data as for the /tmp bind. Go figure ;) So I created a script to bind all the mounts manually to the chroot and everything was fine again. I've just tried again to use fstab to bind them automatically et voila, it is back to normal... very strange, it is though the system, in some way remembered the unsuccessful bind with /smb and chose the nearest entry in the fstab to bind to all the chroot entries. Anyway, I need to get on with some work, now I can write to the server using OOo ;) When I've more time I want to find out where the difference in the two systems lies.

Or you can use kernel 2.6.10 or above. Thanks for your hint. The netboot image as well as all amd64 boot images use kernel 2.6.8 so I'm not able to even install debian on this machine. I have the feeling, that the netboot installer requires a kernel compiled for amd64 (i.e. not for i386) and as the other machine I have at hand is a P4, this would mean crosscompiling, which is a thing I would rather not do (if you understand what I mean), but maybe I am wrong in my assumptions. As someone in post has already pointed out a 2.6.11 kernel in the installation images would do good. juraj > > /Jacob > -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org > > iD8DBQFCTavtiAWIAI3xXVYRAggnAJ0U0sY2uoEcoq4qT+XB7gwwNOZPNgCaAmDO > yMvWZ9rRfEGdfh2x0XqPxpM= > =kC4l > -END PGP SIGNATURE- > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Sharutils-Package?
Hi! I use Debian64-pure for a long time and it works great. But today I have needed uuencode. My Debian Sid (32bit) tells me that uuencode is part of the sharutils-package. I downloaded the package-sources from the Debian-Server and compiled it (no problems, there were only some missing \n in 2 .po-files) and build a .deb with checkinstall. No it works without problems. I wonder why sharutils is not in the normal deb-tree of pure64?

"Not found" Is there something wrong with the mysql version in the archive? See http://bugs.debian.org/285344, it has a patch for it. It also seems to suggest that 4.1.8a should have this fixed?

MySQL wont compile from source on Sarge AMD64 / pure64?
When I try to compile mysql from source I get the following error during the configure: checking "LinuxThreads"... "Not found" configure: error: This is a linux system and Linuxthreads was not found. On linux Linuxthreads should be used. Please install Linuxthreads (or a new glibc) and try again.
