Latest rescue disk locks up Thinkpad
I tried installing frozen on an IBM Thinkpad 760E last night - no success. The rescue disk would boot, load root.bin then linix.bin? and lock up after a bunch of "loading dots". Locked up tight - cold boot time. Tried adding floppy=thinkpad to the boot line, no joy. Something in 2.0.30 perhaps ? I haven't verified it, but I recall that rex (2.0.27?) was able to boot and install without any special parameters.

Frozen not really frozen ?
I thought frozen was supposed to be, well, frozen. Why is it that every day there are a bunch of replacements going on in that tree ? Actually, there seem to have been more bo/frozen changes in the last few days than there have been in hamm/unstable :) Dean -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

RE: Frozen - couple of gotchas
Dang it. Looks like debian.crosslink.net isn't a complete mirror. Using the same script against ftp.debian.org it wants to download another 227 meg ! When I look at the file list from each site, ftp.debian.org has everything where it should, while debian.crosslink.net is missing a lot of stuff ... I hate to use the master to update my mirror - what other sites are truly *guaranteed* to be complete ? >-- >From: Dean Carpenter >Sent: Sunday, May 04, 1997 10:07 AM >To:debian-user@lists.debian.org >Subject: Frozen - couple of gotchas > >I just did an install of frozen/bo the other day, and noticed a couple >of small gotchas ... > >The disk images still aren't on the mirror (debian.crosslink.net) so I >had to use the ones from greenbush. > >The packages list under bo/binary-i386 has an entry for : > > unstable/binary-i386/interpreters/cpp_2.7.2.1-7.deb > >which doesn't exist.

RE: Linux in an NT domain
Yup - I think it's called smb-NT-verify.1.1.tar.gz. I don't remember exactly where I got it, but here's the authors name from the nt-linux.readme file ...

I read somewhere once that such a package exists, but am very vague as to the details of what it did. NB: it's not samba, it's do with sharing the user-space/passwords etc. Any ideas? 8<--->8 Richard Shepherd ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 8<--->8 <>
