   Does anyone have something or a procedure under Linux that will give me
 an exact iso image from the cd so the new cd burned from it is an exact
 duplicate?

The easy way out is to make a diskdumpp into an image file, for example:

dd if=/dev/hdc/ of=/home/bughunter/image.raw

Then use cdrecord with the -data flag. The drawback of this procedure is that
all read errors are dupplicated, too. But I had good results only doing that.

[expert] configuring TeX

2000-03-08 Thread Tobias Kahre

Hi,

is there anyone in here having TeX configured, up and running on MDK 7.02 ?
My texconfig does only the following:

root@schreibtisch /root]# texconfig
root@schreibtisch /root]# /usr/bin/texconfig: /tmp/texconf710/logfile: Datei
oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden (file not found)

The texconfig README pppoints out that on some distributions the script is not
running due some bad configured terminfo. But setting the ENVARS reasonable for
texconfig, the behaviour is still the same :-(

Any helpp is strongly apppreciated!

regards,
Tobias

pp.s.: yesthe 'p' on my keyboard is defective !

 Hi,
 
 what for is the line:
 initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.13-7mdk.img
 in the lilo.conf file
 and what is initrd-2.2.13-7mdk.img
 

initrd points to the initial ramdisk. The ramdisk contains th first filesystem
mounted including some kernel modules, e.g. the scsi-modul.

 Do you have all files installed. Do you use KDE. If using KDE have you tried

 Does  texconfig --help   work?
 
 I know this is now much help.

Thank you for your answer, Larry. I'm using KDE but no Klyx. I installed all
packages. My PProblem is only, that the texconfig script of the tetex
distribution is not running on my MDK 7.02. texconfig is important for me in
order to set some defaults, f. e.  ppaper size, ps output and so on. Because I
am not clever enough to fix this, I'm gonna search all config files under
/texmf and edit them by hand ..aaargl¡¿
