[ilugd] single partition across 2 drives
Hi, Can I merge an existing GNU/Linux partition with 3.5 gb of free space on another drive? Both of the drives have important data, so, I would not like to take risks. The details of the drives are as follows:- Drive 1) mount point / fs Ext3 where? /dev/hda2 free/total space 1.6 gb/7.5 gb fstab line LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 OS RHL 7.2 size per sector 4 kb Drive 2) mount point /mnt/hdb1 fs fat32 where? /dev/hdb1 free/total space 4.5 gb/9.3 gb fstab line /dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb1 vfat noauto,rw,user 0 0 OS Win98 size per sector 8 kb I will partition the second disk as soon as I get a solution. Because the per sector sizes are different, it might not merge. ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd

[ilugd] SCO wants licensing fees from corporate Linux users
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 [Cross-posted] [Did we miss this one? How much further will SCO go in making a complete ass of itself in public? -- Raju] SCO wants licensing fees from corporate Linux users By TODD R. WEISS JULY 21, 2003 The gloves are now officially off -- all enterprise Linux users have to pay The SCO Group Inc. new licensing fees to use Linux, or they could find themselves on the wrong end of a copyright infringement lawsuit. That was the ultimatum laid out today by SCO CEO and President Darl McBride, who said that the $3 billion lawsuit against IBM in March was apparently just the start of his company's march to defend itself from what it sees as rampant theft of its Unix System V intellectual property (IP).

Re: [ilugd] SCO wants licensing fees from corporate Linux users
SCO wants licensing fees from corporate Linux users uh!!! anyone has some *bsd cds, please? [just kidding] but seriously, exchanging some emails with the moderator on the TRON website, and he shared with me that TRON's license is like *bsd. wonder if that is the reason why it has garnered such a huge marketshare in terms of devices. meanwhile, back to SCO, any bets on when they are going to lower their gunsights from enterprise to govt, education, corporates, SOHO, professionals, endu-users, developers . . .? :-) LL ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd

In dos if we wish to remove a non-empty directory, we may use the deltree command. But what is the command for removal of a non-empty one in linux. I tried rmdir and rm commands in linux with all their available switches but of no avail. It asks for removal of all the subdirectories and files individually under the main directory that I intend to remove. I find it very irritating, particularly when the directory is large one. So pl. guide what is Command for removal of a non-empty directory. Also pl. provide with Syntax for confirmtion as well as without confirmation before removal of a non-empty directory.

Secondly :- As to your problem , you neglected to mention the distribution you are using. I am assuming it is RedHat. For deleting directories recursively you can use rm -rf /path/to/dir. Be careful be very very careful when playing around with rm -rf. You have been warned. If you want to delete the directory interactively that is if you want it to prompt you with a yes/no option before deleting the contents in the dir then you can use rm -ri /path/to/dir But if you are using a distro like RedHat the command rm is aliased as rm -i by default. To get around this you can either put a \ before the rm command without the quotes of course or you can unalias rm. So to delete recursively all the directories without prompting [EMAIL PROTECTED] Knoppix32]#\rm -rf /path/to/dir OR [EMAIL PROTECTED] Knoppix32]#unalias rm; rm -rf /path/to/dir If you were a normal user RedHat does not alias the rm command then you can simply use rm -rf. Further help on alias you can get from man alias it is a bash built in command. Bye, -- Arindam Dey The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled.

Re: [ilugd] Re: deltree indos what in linux ?
Dear Mr. Malkiat, you may use rm command with switches like: $ rm -rf dir Name This removes the directory and any other subdirectory their in and does it forcefully so it will not ask you for delete confirmation. yogesh On Mon, 2003-07-28 at 03:18, Arindam Dey wrote: On Sat, 2003-07-26 at 19:58, MALKIAT BENIPAL thus hollered from the roof top : Dear Mr.Dey, I am sorry that I am contacing u offlist for my problem as I hope that I wud receipt a prompt reply for the same.
