debian scsi installation support?

1999-05-20 Thread Daryl Williams
folks,

i would like to install debian on a dell poweredge 4300 with
a PERC/2 SC raid scsi controller from AMI. as far as i know
there is no support during a debian installation for this card.
there is support for this from red hat for their installation,
however i would prefer to use debian. there is a driver
available from the manufacturer for this card, however
it is not appear to be on the debian installation media.

is there support planned for this card during installation in
the future, or is there someway currently to bootstrap to a
point where i can install the driver. your help is appreciated.

if this is not the right list to post this question to, i apologize
and would appreciate a pointer to the correct forum to
address this issue.

tia,

daryl

Re:/etc/hosts on one machine

1999-02-26 Thread Daryl Williams
you can achive this using nis. alternatevely you could create
a symlink  from /etc/hosts to an nfs mounted parition where
you would actually keep the host file. i would however *not*
recommend this (second) option. if your network went south
you would not have any name resolution, if in fact you only
rely on /etc/hosts.

dualboot linux and NT?

1999-01-18 Thread Daryl Williams
folks,

i have a system running linux debian hamm with kernel 2.0.34.
this system has 2 IDE drives. linux is installed on the 1st disk
and boot using lilo. i have windows NT on the second disk which
is set as a slave IDE disk. when i try to boot windows NT from
lilo i get the an error message from the system that says is cant
find NTLDR. i am assuming this error message is comming from
the NT boot loader.

i have read the howtos on dual booting but none of them address
this kind of setup with 2 disks. it looks like i might have to edit the
boot.ini file on NT, but that could result in an unbootable system
so i am trying to get some feedback before proceeding that down
road.

any ideas, tips, etc. are welcomed.

thanks in advance,

how to boot into single user mode?

1998-08-27 Thread Daryl Williams
folks,

after successfuly downloading and installing debian 2.0,
i foolishly set it to start xdm at boot time. unfortunatly
i did not get the X server configured correctly and i am
now unable to login at the console. i am also not able to
remote login because the console is secured against root
ogins and i did not create any user accounts.

i figure the only way to fix this is to boot into single user
mode and remove the xdm entries, however i am not sure
how to do this in linux... needless to say i am feeling very
stupid right about now. any help would be appreciated.
