Re: [ilugd] SCO wants licensing fees from corporate Linux users
where is the proof that SCO's close sourse didn't came from open source Linux code. There isn't. So? Are you saying that it came from Linux? Or just bad-mouthing SCO? I dare not. No bad mouthing. Just a thought. But dont u think it may be a possibility. Infact Facts comes out of possible guesses. And I m not the alone shouting see what LL and raj mailed today http://www.zdnet.com.au/newstech/enterprise/story/0,248640,20276662,00.htm to me SCO seems to be a frontend of Redmond and if it is not so ,atleast soemway inspired from Redmond. Assume they are. So? The case still stays valid, doesn't it? Yes sir! absolutely right. Even if it is intentionally or unintentionally fabricated Case is still valid and thats why still they have right to act like that and other ppl hasnt come out in defense. But Wont u defend if someone attacking ur den. U go by history! Find how Redmond had become so big. They kill their competitors ruthlessly either by hook or crook. Although they acted late but they have started against Linux (wait! SCO is just start, u will see more coming to your horror). Ah! Survival of the fittest. regarding possibilities of SCO's actions towards the companies that use Linux, They just want to put salt on Linux wounds as their case againt IBM is heading nowhere. It is. This is the 3rd time this week that I have heard this. What do you mena not going anywhere? Both sides waived their rights to an expidited trial, and as per the calendar, the oral arguements will begin in early 2005. In todays world 1 1/5 year is a big time, a very big time. Nobody knows where things will be heading by 2005. it may be possible that by that time Redmond looses all its server/partial Desktop market to Linux (what is use of creating all this fuss then). U know SCO was also selling Linux (open source). So what u say on this point. Boss! SCO was also selling open source Linux. When they r selling it by themselves do they have right to object now. Ponder on it. Indirectly they may have contributed by themselves (it is also just a possibility; as I said facts comes out of possibilities) so the only way for them is to go behind user rather, if user is in trouble then ofcourse service provider is in trouble. Quote from an article on Zdnet SCO appears to have forgotten that some of the biggest Linux users are the Linux vendors and supporters themselves... there are plenty of Linux supporters and users who have deep enough pockets to challenge its copyright infringement claims: Oracle, Dell, HP and IBM, I am sure u must be keeping an eye on last 2-3 days developments IBM backlashed (more will come little later, this is just trailer u r yet to see whole movie as gartner said best approach for companies during this time of crises would be wait and watch rather than rushing to SCO, just a bit of delaying Linux implementationswill do better things or better no need to slow down things. Sorry, which one is better? Delaying Linux, or not slowing down? In my opinion it all depends on what u want to do with Linux. Read this http://news.com.com/2009-1122-1010047.html SCO is just acting like a 'Goonda' attempting to extort funds from the Linux users without proving its claims in ways that allow users to respond. Wait a minute. They went to court and alleged things about IBM, thus giving IBM a forum to respond. You bad mouth them on a list, without CC:ing them. And you call _them_ a goonda ok! Who is a goonda! SCO is asking customers to pay money based on pure unsubstantiated threats, without offering any facts. That is why I said goonda. I am not guilty, I have not done anything wrong but still somebody is threatening me without proving allegation, then I m bound to call that person goonda bullying me or x,y,z . And dont forget to read this http://www.zdnet.com.au/newstech/enterprise/story/0,248640,20276629,00.htm Getting in agreement with SCO just because of allegations rather than facts would be most stupid thing. Sorry, cannot resist quoting Dave Barry. That is not the most stupid thing to do. I can think of thousands of things more stupid. Ok! Pay them. After all its ur money. Who cares if u want to through it in dustbin too. J But before any action read this http://www.computerworld.com/softwaretopics/os/linux/story/0,10801,83477,00.html what FSF or somebody like that can do at the moment is SUE SCO Over adopting unethical practicies, either show us trouble code immediately or pay to FSF. Why not you? Heck, I will put my money where my mouth is, and spring up cash to your legal fund. You get to keep all the money SCO pays you after you win the case over adopting unethical practices. Where is money ;) first gimme that then I will see whether to sue SCO or not ;) heard. As Voltaire said, I will oppose what you say, but I willd defend your right to say it.

Re: [ilugd] A question on grub
Dear Mr. Ghosh, DOS/Windows OS can usually be booted from the first hard disk only. However, if you want to boot Windows from a hard disk other than the first, you can simply change the hard disk's BIOS number to make Windows believe it resides on the first hard disk. This can be achieved in the Grub configuration with the comand map. To do this, open the file /boot/grub/menu.lst with an editor of your choice and edit or append the following section: title windows root (hd1,0) makeactive chainloader +1 map (hd0) (hd1) map (hd1) (hd0) Save the file menu.lst. Could be a help. Check it out !! Koushik Ghosh wrote: Hi all, can you help me configuring the grub in multiple harddisk, I have two one is 10GB(hdc) and another is 4GB(hda).

RE: [ilugd] Rescuing linux partition from a lilo overwrite
just trying to be a bit more -V on these points here... Try this. 1. boot into rescue mode using Installation CDs. ! 2. mount the root and boot partition of your linux installation on /mnt/sysconfig or something else for e.g. i take for granted that you have only one root partition which contains the boot directory. then probably the installation automatically detected it and mounted it in /mnt/sysconfig...(it does in rh8 atleast) even if it doesnt, it would give you a shell, where you can do a mkdir /mnt/linux mount /dev/hdx /mnt/linux chroot /mnt/linux 3. chroot to that partition and configure lilo, exit from the shell and reboot .. this brings you to a shell prompt with /mnt/linux as the root directory. here goto /etc/lilo.conf... make the changes if reqd. and run lilo... now exit, or simply the famous win-trio keys would work... affly rbs ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd

Re: [ilugd] (no subject)
hi, frankly your question is too vague... quite like: i wish to fly... what should i take a glider or the concorde...? (although the comparisons are not corresponding to the ones you stated..) i'd rather say that you are asking the wrong question. (traditional) unix systems are generally(!) for a server end... eg. Solaris, Sco-unix... etc.. linux on the other hand is a variant of unix... but (also) tilted towards the desktop side... in short: if you wish to do learning, on the home front, i'd rather say you need not think,and go straight for linux, especially if your background in such systems is minimal... for cds you could contact people on the list itself.. that has lots of docs to read. (after installation that is..) or visit innumerable sites on the net e.g. www.tldp.org , www.linuxnewbie.org etc... but again, your question is bit too vague for anyone to answer.. and generally (and this goes for most of the new learners) its adviced that in a list like this (or any other such list) newbies are more than welcome, but a little effort on their side is very very appreciated... well: if you ask whether to take Air-India or Sahara from delhi to timbuktu, i think you'd get a lot more answers..!! in english what that means is that a simple unix vs linux or a simple linux learn introduction on google helps quite a bit... atleast in the initial decision making... :-) happy learning. keep smiling affly robins On Thu, 2003-07-31 at 20:44, tarun sundriyal wrote: sir i want to switch towards linux and i am not able to understand weather i must learn unix or linux so can you help me also can u give information about various certificates that i can get from net based on unix or linux.waiting for u r guidance thanks ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd

Since you yourself are pretty unsure about Unix/Linux and what you want to do with it( you mentioned certificates), I would suggest you pick up a Linux book from any book store ( a casual browsing should tell you whether the book suits your requirement).
