 Depends. For a dos partition table, I think it's 15 or 16 per disc. For
 sparc disclabels, it's 7 (plus the special one) per disc. For other
 disclabels, it's something else. If you cheat and use LVM it's something
 silly like 255 per volumegroup, so you could get several thousand per
 disc.
 
 Of course, you'll run out of device numbers after a while anyway, unless
 you switch to udev.

in /usr/src/ there is a symlink, make sure it is pointing to the kernel of
choice.

I have moved to the selinux-2.4.21r0, and builds very nice no warning or errors
and then boots up.

   This one I'm not sure about. Do the directories
   /opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/bin/java/include/* exist? If not, can you find
   them anywhere else under /opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/?
 
 Yes they do, I am also getting the following:
  RickSivernell rick $ /opt/openoffice/program/swriter
  -bash: /opt/openoffice/program/swriter: /bin/sh: bad interpreter:
  Permission denied
 
on this and many of my binaries.
 
 Hmmm... I would ask if /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/bash but you'll probably 
 tell me it is. Out of curiosity, did you choose an alternate security model 
 in your kernel config? I've never worked with any of them, so I can't 
 attribute it to the errors your getting. Or perhaps extended attributes on 
 the file system that are incorrectly set up? Just a thought...

   yes /bin/sh is asym to bash. I have used the selinux-2.4.21.r0, I need to read
some of the white papers when I can  I guess. Right now I am writting code doing
Discrete Math and a e-commerce security class. The wifey wants some time, not
much left after teaching too. g., cheers

This would be ok if all uses of tms_stime; to tms_ctime in all *.c files that

I changed #define UNIX_PATH_MAX 10( to #define UNIX_PATH_MAX100 , I used
100 becuase it appeared to be a fat finger here, I perform this trick myselfg.
It could be the wrong value too high or low, it needs to be checked out farther

[gentoo-user] boot partition is lost at boot up

2003-08-18 Thread Rick Sivernell
I have a major problem. I have installed about a month ago r5 and life was
running. I am using ex3 on /boot and reiserfs on all other partitions. On a
system reboot last friday I lost all ability to boot into the system. I have
performed the following 1 fsck -p /dev/hda(1)(2)(3) /boot swap  /(root), 
with a super block corruption. I did install a new cdrw scsi drive into the
system, while bios saw it gentoo did not. Today on furthur investagation I find
that/dev/hda(1)(2)(3) are non exsistant. I CREATED THE LINKS, I HAVE A LAPTOP 
RUNNING GENTOO R5, on reboot there are no links to /dev/hda. 

I have even tried to use MAKDEV and it makes the nodes for hdxx, on reboot they
are gone. Is the file/etc/devfsd.conf at fault here? I need to get this fixed as
I am writing software for a college course. I will send any further info if I
missed anything here or if the fstab will help Any help will be extremly helpfull
and appreciated. I can be contacted at [EMAIL PROTECTED] offlist. --

Re: [gentoo-user] question

2003-07-12 Thread Rick Sivernell
Stephan, Nathan, Jan 

   Excuse me a little, I tend to get upset after screwing with stuff that should
work the 1st time. Now I have fixed the problem. Let me explain properly what
what the problem is, I am cooled off nowg. In developing a program on Caldera
system, I have moved the code to gentoo. I now created a directory tree under
/usr/local name silverware with bin,docs,logs,lib/debug,lib/release  etc. When
scons built a new or rebuilt an shared lib, it is instructed to copy the lib to
the new directory, debug libs to lib/debug, release to release. These wre not
symlinks , just stright copies. In actually it was all proper, but this exerc
forced me to perform what I wanted in a more relative postion as I should have
done before. As things turned out I have had to perform some things  learn
gentoo a little better, I think I haveg. One thing I do know the worst linux
distro is 1k time better than M$sludge. At this point all is well here in
mudsville till the next crisisg.  I still have a cupsd problem to work on and
sound does not seem to work, even though the system says sound is loaded. Hmmm,
that must wait a while. this program is for a directed study project that is
comming due in 3 months. Gentlemen, MUCH Gracious for the help and a switf kick
inthe xg.

I guess software can not move, copy data or programs, you must be bash or
something. This is totally bull. I have te same on my caldera system and all
works fine. I have moved the location back onto the partition now and that
problem is gone.  I am almost ready to dump gentoo, just too many problem here.

rebuilding kernel again right now  will reboot. It does appear that when I got

[gentoo-user] DEVFSD

2003-06-03 Thread Rick Sivernell

  ost ready to throw out gentoo. I cannot get devfsd to start. Since it will not
start or load itself, I have no printing, and without printing the whole thing is
useless. Now I have done all of the hoop jumping, 2 dozen kernel recompiles and
different checks all over. I have yet to find any info on where the devfsd /dev
command is to be put within the system startup scripts. Is there anyone who
knows, or is this a special secret. Help is appreciated, as time for me is
running out.

[gentoo-user] devfsd question

2003-06-02 Thread Rick Sivernell

Well, I think I have narrowed down my problem here, but not sure. When I boot
into gentoo  during startup, I get you have not installed devfs into the system,
it is required. Well, I have recompiled, many times trying to find the proble. I
can not find where in the start scripts that the following is useddevfsd /dev. 
Where do I put it? many thanks

[gentoo-user] question

2003-05-29 Thread Rick Sivernell

  Got system up and running now, but 2 small quirks to fix.

1. On boot, I get the devfs must be set for gentoo  check with site,
   thus /boot is not in /etc/fstab but /mnt/init.d/.., althoght there is
   a /boot/bzImage only in /boot. Did I miss something/

2. can not mount cdrom fstab says there needs to be a
   /dev/cdroms/cdrom0, there is none and no /dev/cdroms. I assume there
   is a command to build this in /dev.

cheers

 Did you compile devfs into the kernel?  Gentoo requires that you do this

[gentoo-user] failures

2003-05-27 Thread Rick Sivernell
list

   For 3 weeks I have been trying t build a system, on a PIII w/
a 60g HD. The system builds ok from livecd, but when started on its own
I get 3 errors.

1. devfs not installed, bull shit I have set every thing on in
filesystem except debugging and it is set to [*], used the setup from a
running gentoo system, same mobo same drives types. tempfs installed on
boot to /etc/mtab, /etc/fstab is the same except hda partition a little
different.

2. I have /dev/hda1 /boot ext2
  /dev/hda2 swap
  /dev/hda3 /  reiserfs  all on a 30g of space
  /dev/hda3 /extendedall of the rest of hd 

3. no networking, even thought I have set everthing up in setup and it
worked nicely. even brought over hosts, nsswitch  resolve from working
machine. 

I can get the msg from /var/log/msg file if need be, not much there.
any help appreciated. Really getting tired of this, it should work
without this much effort.

cheers
