Thanks for all the replies.  It was a config error

boot = /dev/hda1 should have been boot=/dev/hda

Now the system boots!

Thanks again,

Lance

Sys will boot from floppy but not from HD

2007-02-18 Thread Lance Hoffmeyer
Hey all,

I have an old problem that I now wish to fix since I have just upgraded
my file server.  I can boot the server from a floppy but when I try to
boot directly from the Hard Drive all I get is 01 01 01 01 ...

I have booted from the floppy and rerun lilo -v
OUTPUT:
Reading boot sector from /dev/hda1
Merging with /boot/boot-menu-b ...

I have checked and  /dev/hda1 is bootable

in lilo.conf

boot = /dev/hda1
root = /dev/hda1

What should I try next?

Lance

Verizon FIOS and linux in general

2006-06-21 Thread Lance Hoffmeyer
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
 
Hey all,

Verizon just install fiber optic lines in my neighborhood and want me
to switch from my DSL to FIOS.
They have certain computer requirements and I am wondering what they
are for?

At least 650M processor.  My current file server is an old 450M
computer.  I don't really use it for the
internet so I don't think it is an issue unless I need to connect from
an office outside my home.

The main problem is that Verizon will setup one computer for free and
they appear to want to install software on
this computer in able for FIOS to work.  Some reading I have done
suggests that this software is trying to
overcome the latency for the packet acks in a TCP session. I can only
guess that they are going to increase
the sliding window set for the max # of tcp packets that can be
received without an ack.

Since two of my three computer run Debian (one running I386 Sarge, one
(my primary production computer)
an AMD64 Sarge/Sid/Etch hybrid) I am wondering if Verizon FIOS will
work on these computers?

Does anyone have experience with Verizon FIOS?  Will my debian boxes
run without the Verizon software?
Are these tweaks I can make to the linux boxes to optimize the FIOS?
Any suggestions or links welcome!
I am simply in the consideration phase of determining if I should
switch from my DSL to FIOS and what, if
any, problems I will encounter by choosing to switch.

Lance

That was it exactly and your solution worked, thanks!!!
I figured it was something like that.  Just didn't know
which file to reinstall.

mplayer libGL.so.1

2005-12-04 Thread Lance Hoffmeyer
Hey all,
 Somewhere along the line I have lost the use of mplayer in Xorg using
SID.  I can run mplayer fine from a console but when I try from gnome-terminal
I get:

$mplayer
mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory

$ll /usr/lib/libGL*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   27 2005-11-29 14:20 /usr/lib/libGL.so -> 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   27 2005-11-29 14:20 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2

Any suggestions?

Lance

ape/mac audio ?

2005-12-02 Thread Lance Hoffmeyer

Anyone gotten the ape/mac lossless audio codec to work?
Downloaded mac-3.99-u4-b4.tar.gz.  Thought is was from 
sourceforge but cannot find the download site.  

Compiled fine but get segmentation fault when trying to
decompress an *.ape to *.wav.

Kernel compile problems

2005-08-26 Thread Lance Hoffmeyer
Hey all,

I am running 

Linux version 2.6.8-11-amd64-generic ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 
(gcc version 3.4.4 20050314 (prerelease) (Debian 3.4.3-13)) 

I want to recompile the kernel mainly because I want framebuffer support.

Using make-kpkg I get the following warning:

$make-kpkg --initrd --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image
dpkg-architecture: warning: Unknown gcc system type x86_64-linux-gnu, 
 falling back to default (native compilation)
dpkg-architecture: warning: Specified GNU system type x86_64-linux 
 does not match gcc system type x86_64-linux-gnu.
dpkg-architecture: warning: Unknown gcc system type x86_64-linux-gnu, 
 falling back to default (native compilation)

Is it true?:

Please ignore the warning about overriding and ignoring targets above.
These are harmless. They are only invoked in a part of the process
that tries to snarf variable values for the conf.vars file.

Lance
