Linking to older system libraries
Hi all, I seem to have the need to have two sets of libraries on my machine. What do I do to ld to get it to link to the older version rather than the default new version? I have read that LD_LIBRARY_PATH only affects the run-time searching for libraries, so that won' tell the linker to link against the old libs.

2.1r2 (Official) 8 gig partition size barrier
I purchased a new 10 gig hard drive and Offical Debian 2.1r2. dev/hda is a single partition win98 fat32 drive I use this drive to boot into Win98 or via loadlin into Linux (redhat 6.0) on /dev/hdb However /dev/hdb has been replaced by a new 10 gig drive which I wish to install Debian on. I boot up Deb 2,1r2 cdrom and do the install up to the part were you create the disk partition. But cfdisk can only see 8 gig of my /dev/hdb disk (it should see about 9.7 gig). And it only goes to 1024 cyclinders! I know that Linux can't boot unless the kernel is in the first 1024 cylinders but I'm using Loadlin so big deal. The funny thing is that when the deb kernel boots it detects /dev/hdb at it's correct size! Is this version of fdisk obsolete

I have a vmlinuz in root, which is symlink to /boot/vmlinuz, but no symlink in root about System.map. yup System.map belongs in /boot though i have seem slackware systems throw it all in / vmlinuz symlinks are purly for the convenience of lilo. it does not matter if/where they are. If you use make-kpkg, the deb package created should take care of all this when you install it. yup but it won't make symlinks of System.map they are not needed and are in fact a bad idea, they prevent you from booting other kernels versions without one getting a bad system.map. -- It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong. - Voltaire Ed C. -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null -- Ethan Benson
apache, ssl, slink, potato and apt
Hi, I'm trying to do something here which is probably a bit wacko. I'm running slink and have not upgraded to potato due to a lack of hdd space, but need php3.0.15 and that version is not available for slink. In an act of senseless desperation I went ahead and changed my sources.list to use frozen and did apt-get update. Then apt-get php3. Allowed it to install the additional packages needed which came out to be a total of 14MB. Everything seems ok except that I previously had been running both apache and apache-ssl for secure webmail service. The php3 installation removed apache-ssl and I see no equivalent in the frozen database when doing a search. No apache-ssl available anymore and I've been unable to locate a module as well. So my question is, what do I do to get ssl back? Am I going to need to get the mod_ssl tarball? Thanks for your time, -- Mark
Moving selected file systems to new hard disk
I had kept a copy of a really great article posted on another mailing list for this but now seem to have lost it. I would like to upgrade and move things like /home and /usr to a new scsi hard disk drive which has much more room. The old disk is /dev/sda and I am installing a new IBM 18 gig scsi drive to /dev/sdb. I would definitely like to get /home there since it seems to grow quite quickly. If /usr could move also, that would be cool. -- Michael Perry [EMAIL PROTECTED] --

more complete logging of the boot process?
Is there a way to get a more complete log of the text that scrolls by during the boot sequence?

Create the new partitions on /dev/sdb, then mount each partition under /mnt. Go to the directory you want to move, the example shows /usr, but /home, /var and such should be the same. I was told there was some issue with sockets not moving correctly with tar, but I don't know what a socket is, and I was able to move /usr with no issues. As I am new to Linux as well, I asked for, and got a very good explanation of what this command did. After I had moved the directories, I just needed to update /etc/fstab to mount the new partitions under the proper directories. I'm still waiting to copy and resize my root partition. cd /usr tar cpf - . | (cd /mnt ; tar xpf -) tar: you know this c : create p : preserve permisions (rwx and owners, etc) f : file name, the next arg will give the name of the file - : most commands understand this to mean stdin/stdout. tar is one, so this is stdout. . : the current directory. if you make a tar file of . and then do a tar t of it, everything will look like ./foo, ./bar, ./zoo/cow, and so on. an ls -a will show both . and .. dirs. the parenthesis around the other two commands force them into a subshell, so it's almost like piping into a shell script. that way the cd command takes effect, and that's also why the cd doesn't affect your current session - at the end of this command you'll still be in /usr.

OT: transparency adapter
I'm on my knees to beg for forgiveness for this off-topic subject. My father wants to scan some slides with this trusty HP scanner. Needless to say there is no adapter for that particular type of scanner, so we decided to build something ourselves. We tried many different kinds of regular and fluorescent bulbs in a homemade cover which we placed over the slide. The picture comes out fine, only the colors never match (not even GIMP can correct this). We just got hold of an old ISA (?) scanner (US$7 at a fair) and the idea was to rip out the bulb and simply connect it to a power supply. From the electronics we could deduct that the bulb runs on AC power (it looks like the DC is coming from the ISA card, runs through a flip-flop consisting of two transistors and then is transformed with a small transformer before going to the bulb). We don't have a clue as to what voltage to use and the thing came without ISA card so there is no way of checking when the scanner is in operation. Any of you have experience/know something more about this? What voltage do these scanner lamps run on? Anybody ever tried to make a transparency adapter? Any hints highly appreciated. Thank you. --hans

urgently need libc6 = 2.1.2
I am unable to install libc6-2.1.3-5 since there is a problem with the pre/postinstall scripts (according to the packet maintainer). I don't want to wait for the next installable packet and would also take a packet with version = 2.1.2. I wasn't able to find one on the debian site. Unfortunately all the new packets I have to install urgently requires libc6 = 2.1.2. I even can't find my libc6 version I am currently using on the debian site (2.1.1). What's the reason to leave only the 2.0.x and the new (not working) 2.1.3-5 version in the debian archives? Werner
Developing Gnome Apps with Debian?
Hi. I have a question about Gnome and Debian. I have installed the October Gnome using apt-get from debian/~vincent/mumble on my reasonably stock slink system. I want to track the latest Gnome libraries, and in particular, the glade and gtkmm libraries, and bonobo. These are apparently quite out of date in October Gnome. I understand how to build gnome apps from the tarballs, or from CVS if necessary. Is there any easy and reliable way of getting the October Gnome stuff off my machine so that I can upgrade to the edge? Or is there in general a better way to do this? I thought about apt-get -f remove task-gnome-apps but that seems like a lot of violence. Maybe that's the way to do it, though. I also spent some time finding out all the packages I would have to remove if I removed libgtk*. That seemed like more work than was necessary as well, but perhaps that's the right way to do it. Thanks.

Is this a bug in the debian distribution of Emacs-20.5a or endemic to the 20.5a version of emacs. If the latter, will the recently released version 20.6 be made available as a deb package in slink?

Missing charset?
Hi, I just install debian stable (base) for my first time. Everything went fine, but now when I start debian I am getting some errors (or warnings) when mount is mounting my dos (windows) partitions. I had mount device path fat default and the message was: Unable to load NSL charset cp437 (nsl_cp437) Since I wasn't getting the filenames properly I changed fat to vfat and default to posix. The file names are ok now but I am getting two missing charsets. So my question is: Is this something to worry about and if yes, haw can I fix it. Thanks in advance Nick
Sparc Debian?
I just got a Sparc 330. In tact, etc, minus a single bad simm. Only question, is there a Sparc Debian distro? I have Slink, 2.1 CD already. Is there a way I can boot off this CD when I get a CD-ROM in it so I can install linux on it? Robert :wq! --- Robert L. Harris| Low quality in a product happens.

As you can see, the MD driver is also included, thus it should work. it still would appear that you have no valid sd[cde]2. perhaps fdisk -l /dev/sd[cde] output so we can see the partitions on those drives? also helpful would be your raidtab (mdtab in this case) contents and /proc/mdstat output My guess would be either /dev/sd[cde] aren't valid drives (for whatever reason) or they only have a single partition. Shot in the dark, of course, as there's not enough information to make a good assessment. Good luck! James

new slink release?
This is not a bitch, just curious. I notice changes to slink on ftp.debian.org but the symlinks still say 2.1r4 which could mean that the updates are not all there yet. I would guess that a 2.1r5 release is happening here. Does anyone who knows for sure care to post something to this list? Are the updates done except for the 2.1.r5 designation? Is it okay to upgrade from the archive yet? Or maybe I missed something that was already posted here. +--+ + Paul Wade Greenbush Technologies Corporation + + mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.greenbush.com/ + +--+
Re: 2.1r2 (Official) 8 gig partition size barrier

This is what I have to type in for my 10.2Gb disk, but yours will probably be different. The 'linux' is the name of the boot image on the cdrom (I don't remember at the moment, but IIRC this is it), and the 1247,255,63 is the number of cyls,heads,sectors on my HD (you will put yours in, of course). Naturally, you will later want to include an append line in lilo.conf to recognise the HD correctly on bootup (man lilo.conf).

few general questions
Ok am new to the list but I have a few questions. I am completely new to Linux and I decided to install Debian 2.1 using the book Learning Debian by Bill McCarty I think, pretty good book it seems. Well anyway I opted for the standard workstation install that was about 400 and some odd megabytes. Well the purpose of this linux box was to set it up as a webserver for my newly acquired domain name. I then installed Apache and was surprised to see that I could go to the page on internet explorer via my ip#, didn't even have to do anything except install apache. Well I was going to read about installing some security for my machine but spent all nite messing around with it so I went to bed. It is connected to my schools network. Well one of the people I work with, who knows linux fairly well, took it upon himself to hack my poor defenseless machine and he defaced the webpage that apache had setup. He said he got in using the sendmail bug I believe, that and something about the printer giving him super user access. He said it was turned on by default. He didn't damage the system but I decided to reinstall anyway choosing what I wanted. OK NOW WHAT CAN I DO TO MAKE MY BOX MORE SECURE. I read some of the stuff at Linuxnewbie.org and I turned off some of the daemons and things like that but what else can I do? I restriced access from my school's whole domain name but I saw him get around this rather quickly by telneting somewhere else than telneting to my server. Ok I do no want him to use the same exploit that he used the first time, If anyone knows what this exploit is please tell me so I can stop it, I dont think I installed it this time though. Also I was wondering how I can setup ftp accounts where I can upload webpages to my server using a normal account that I created myself. I want this account to be able to delete and create files in certain directories. Yikes sorry for making this such a long post. I would appreciate it if someone would help this newbler out. Oh yeah he is going to start hacking my machine this monday so I need some security to stop him. He said i am going to wait till monday, but just to give you a hint what i am going to try is: suEXEC - be sure to have that protected. Thanks, Brett
2.1 Installation and Backpack CD-Rom
Hello all -- I am installing 2.1 onto an old 486 which does not have a CD-Rom. I have a Backpack CD-Rom (parallel port) which I would like to use, but cannot figure out how... Kernel and base have been successfully installed with floppies, but the Backpack is not being recognized, and I am not sure what to do. The manufacturer (Micro-solutions) has a module file on their ftp site but I don't know how to integrate that into what I am doing (Do I need to use Rawrite2? If so, how? And at what point does this need to be introduced?) (I do have online access and a computer w/ internal CD-Rom, but neither on the 486 in question.) (Did I mention that I'm very green at this?...) Thanks in advance for any suggestions... -- Lee Wright
partitioning, dual booting(?)
I'm not all that new to the Linux thing, but I want to install Debian 2.1 onto a 2.1 gig hard drive and be able to keep my other OS (sadly, Win98) until I can burn all my stuff to disc and convert my other HDD (8.6GB) to ext2. In any case, I'd just like to know how I can partition it correctly ... I want to be able to use LILO through DOS to boot to Linux off the hard drive, because on the box I've had for about a year now boots off a floppy, which takes an unnecessarily inordinate amount of time. Should I make a 16MB partition specifically for /boot (some guy on another list said that would work), another partition for root (what's appropriate size here, as a partition of a 2GB HDD if I want to use the system for coding/development?), and the rest for /usr and all the other stuff? How do you (plural) suggest I go about doing this? Also, can I specify where I want all the parts of the file system to rest on the drive? I can't remember from my last installation (did a plain old vanilla stripped-server profile for my boss). What will allow me to drop to DOS and go through lilo? I've checked the FAQ, and I suppose what I'm looking for is something more in-depth ... I thank you all for your time, Michael Phillips (I'm having troubles with it not recognizing my Rockwell HCF 56K, too, but that's a whole other email! :o)
