Re: Problem with RAID

The Mylex card you have is a RAID card, so your system will see it as a single drive. You do not load RAID software!

About a year ago, I loaded Linux on a RAID system with a DPT controller. I used Caldera on that install. Let's start with Debian. If you cannot boot off of the CD, then you will have to make the six diskettes with the base system. I think disk 2 has the modules for the other controllers. With Debian, you have to get the base system installed before you can do anything else. With the Mylex controller, you cannot use the one diskette solution. I'm sure that true with Redhad and I know it's true with Caldera. If you use Caldera, it comes with 2 diskettes. In it's load, it will ask you if all hard drives were found, you say no and proceed from there. -- Gregory Wood Farsight Computer 1219 W University Blvd. Odessa TX 79764 Voice: 1-915-335-0879 CT Pioneers Board Member Novell CNE Appgen VAR

I thought I'd fixed this by stopping ihug.co.nz being considered local, but then email generated by cronjobs and such were finding their way to my provider ([EMAIL PROTECTED] - since the outgoing mails were having their addresses rewritten).

Deb v2.1 vs. potato question
Hello, I have one server on 'bo' (I think) for about 18 months. I decided it was time to update and build a small server to load the new (maybe just newer) version of Debian. I ordered the cd and got Deb v2.1 The install was very smooth. I installed with the Web server plus option. I am close to having the base system operational. I have been working on my IP Masq commands and it seems a lot of the discussions on IP Masq are on 'ipchains', which is in the 2.2.x kernels. Should I go ahead to potato now? Is there an upgrade script? Thanks. -- Gregory Wood Farsight Computer 1219 W University Blvd Odessa TX 79764 Voice: 1-915-335-0879 CT Pioneers Board Member Novell CNE Appgen VAR

Re: Trying to install gnome from slink
Looks bad -- hope for a bad copy. Go back through dselect and unselect the package. Let Debian remove it from your system. Then run dselect and select the package and let it do its thing. In the past, I remember having to go through dselect twice but I don't remember why. Maybe someone will be able to give you that info. Good luck.
