Mini Linux con Debian
Hace varios meses pregunté en la lista dónde podía obtener documentación para extraer de Debian un sistema mini-linux en un único disquete. Después de recopilar la información prometí informar de mis resultados a la lista -en especial a todos aquellos que me respondieron- . En resumidas cuentas he automatizado con sencillos scripts las diversas operaciones que encajan el núcleo 2.2.17 (puede rondar según mis opciones entre los 400 y 500 kb) y un sistema de ficheros comprimido (ocupa el resto de disquete 800 a 900 kb). Sin embargo los resultados obtenidos no son los esperados. Seleccionar las opciones del núcleo, elegir los binarios, las librerías, generar los ficheros de configuración básicos y encajar el sistema no son un problema para mi (sólo es cuestión de tiempo y afinar el detalle). Pero la verdad es que: - operando con los archivos tomados de Debian me encuentro con que no puedo acceder al sistema. Login me responde siempre que el usuario es desconocido. En principio creo que es un detalle de PAM o de alguna opción de PAM que busca en un fichero log algún tipo de información que no puedo deducir con la documentación que tengo a mano. - Después de muchos intentos frustrados pasé a trabajar con los binarios de busybox y tinylogin, aquí no tengo problema alguno para trabajar con el sistema. Mi pregunta es la siguiente, ¿alguien imagina lo que puede estar fallando en el primero de los casos?. Gracias. Un saludo. José Francisco. [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Chatea con Andreu Martín. Escritor.

Y al poco tiempo incluyeron el paquete yard en Sid, como no guardé los

vistazo, adjunto descripción.
Un saludo, Manuel
Package: yard
Priority: optional
Section: utils
Installed-Size: 322
Maintainer: Hector Garcia [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Architecture: all
Version: 2.0-2
Depends: perl5, make (=3.00)
Suggests: ash

Description: Perl scripts to build rescue disk(s) to revive a system
.
Yard is a suite of Perl scripts for creating custom boot/rescue
disks. Using a compressed filesystem, it can put a standard kernel
image plus about 2.4 meg of utilities on a single floppy. Yard is
also useful for creating self-contained Linux-on-a-floppy systems.
You specify a basic set of files and utilities for inclusion and
Yard handles many of the details. Features:
- File specs allow absolute and relative filenames, symbolic links,
file replacements and full shell-style globbing.
- Automatically determines necessary libraries and loaders.
- Allows stripping of binaries and libraries during copying.
- Automatically regenerates ld.so.cache
- Checks for broken symlinks
- Checks /etc/{fstab,inittab,termcap,pam.conf} for common errors and
inconsistencies.
- Checks user directories and files mentioned in /etc/passwd
- Checks command files (eg, rc.local and .login) and scripts for
missing binaries and command interpreters.
- Automatically performs filesystem compression and copying.
- Can be used with or without LILO.
- Can make single or double disk sets.
- Extensive checking of user choices and execution errors.

De Slink a Potato o Woody

Quisiera saber qué es exactamente lo que debo de hacer para poder actualizarme desde la consola; me refiero a que tipo de comandos debo de utilizar. Tambien quisiera saber si una vez actualizado es factible descargar e instalar Gnome desde internet con Lynx, ejecutando : lynx -source http://go-gnome.com/ | sh o si por el contrario me recomendáis instalarlo a mano desde un CD. Esta última cuestión la planteo porque en la página de gnome hace referencia a la compatibilidad de este escritorio con Debian, pero a la hora de seleccionar Debian para descargar e instalar Gnome, no aparece por ningún lado. Muchas gracias por anticipado y salu2.

Re: Hdparm and 2.4 kernel
Generally you need to be root to use hdparm. I am root! I wouldn't imagine it working it with a non-priveleged user. There seems to be a gerneral problem with hdparm not being happy under the 2.4 kernel -- if I boot 2.2.18 again it works fine. Even more generally you shouldn't need to use hdparm with 2.4.x kernels. 2.4.x has much better IDE support.

The motorola cybersufr brand has been doing this forever as well. This prevents someone from using some sort of cable analyser to sniff datagrams after they hit the wire.. I wouldn't count on the encryption being actually super secure, but it is unlikely that someone is going to be sniffing packets by examining the signals on the coax. as you should be, cable modems generally are equivilent to large unswitched lans, which means any bozo with a cable modem can set thier machine to primisquous mode and see every packet sent by any cable modem user.

Yes: I found the origin of the problem when booting an old ide disk with a win98 system installed on it: win98 showed that there was a conflict with the SCSI adapter driver: i could change the adress setting of the SCSI adapter in a dialog box and after reboot (under win98), i had my scsi card running perfectly. ctrl-alt-backspace does not work, i need to power off/on the computer to restart. Are you sure that's the problem? I suspect it isn't. Do you have any X logs that indicate this is the problem? An ~/.xsession-errors perhaps? Note: Ctrl-Alt-Backspace should kill X if it is hung.

DHCP unavailable during installation
Hello, I am currently setting up a Compaq Deskpro 2000 Pentium 166 MMX as a Debian box. It has a 3Com ethernet card, which doesn't seem to want to work with DHCP. I'm sure it must be a compatibility problem between Debian and the computer, because I had no problem using DHCP with Debian on a different computer, nor did I have any trouble with DHCP on this computer with FreeBSD. Here is what is detected during startup: 3Com 3c905 Boomerang 100baseTx at 0x1440, 00:60:08:14:86:44 IRQ 3 8k word-wide RAM 3:5 Rx:Tx split, autoselect/MII interface MII transceiver found at addres 24, status 786d Enabling bus-master transmitters and whole-frame receives Then it apparently loads via-rhine.c v1.01 about 5 times. Unfortunately, when I try to configure my network during install, DHCP/BOOTP doesn't work, nor do the defaults or my best guesses in the manual setup. I've had trouble with PnP BIOS and ethernet cards with Debian before, so I played around in the BIOS, but there aren't a lot of options. I can pretty much only enable/disable bus mastering, and enable/disable the card itself. It was on IRQ 11 but the BIOS suggested I move it to IRQ 3. Could this be a BIOS conflict? Is there an incompatibility with my network card? Why won't DHCP/BOOTP function properly with Debian? In any case, I really like the feel of Debian, and I want to run it on my system. Somebody please help! I don't want to have to install FreeBSD! Thank you, Justin Jones

Even if I were, surely I would be bound not to break the law anyway?), and various other stuff. This means everybody redistributing Debian (like CD vendors) would end up bound to check ATT's website every couple of months, and that sort of thing.

You can either use fetchmail with SSL support or use stunnel. With fetchmail you can fetch your emails via SSL connection. With stunnel you can create SSL connection between your machine and remote and forward this connection in decrypted form on local port on your machine. -- Ilya Martynov AGAVA Software Company, http://www.agava.com
