I use grub2 for booting off of a USB/SD-Card and the following are
a few of the relevant entries what I have in /boot/grub/grub.cfg
   
Thanks, that's helpful, but still a tad too much work.  I've found
enough Winduhs tools for doing this, am surprised there's nothing
equivalent for Linux.

   MultiBoot.
  
   *Sigh* back to the drawing board.

[ilugd] Remembering Raj Mathur

2012-12-15 Thread Gora Mohanty
Hi,

I suspect that it will take some time for all of us to come to terms
with the fact that OldMonk will never again be annoying^W gracing
us with his wisecracks. His mother, who is not at all computer-savvy
has requested a compilation of remembrances of him; especially
about what people have been saying about his passing. Therefore,
I request all of you to share with me (off-list, if you prefer) anything
in this regard. I am currently aware of:
* Posts on this list
* Facebook posts from people who are on my list of friends
* EFY write-up

I will look through Twitter, and please send me any blogs, etc., that
you might come across. I will also do a search of recent writings.

Besides these, I do invite personal anecdotes about Raju from
everyone, however small they might be. I understand that not all
of these can be made public, and will respect requests of
confidentiality.

I will also compile, and publish these somewhere on an ILUG-D
related site.

Regards,
Gora

I have created a facebook event for prayer service for Raj; as well as a
facebook page so that the word can spread further; do visit, and mark as
attending on:

http://www.facebook.com/events/174527039337842

Also, facebook page in Raj's memory:

http://www.facebook.com/RajMathurLinux

Personally I remember that the first time I heard-of/interacted online with
Raj was in the 1990s-- when he started a BBS... at the time he was still
with Silicon Graphics... and still married... then took some help from him
around 2001-- and mostly went out of touch again till 2006/2007-- when I
became active on LUG once again.

Thank you. Please change the time from 3-4pm to 4-5pm.
We seem to have mixed that up.

Nice initiative Gora... incidentally, even I had spent the last hour or so
creating a facebook page in Raj's memory... and trying to spread the word
of prayer meeting in Raj's memory to friends.

I am sure there are literally thousands of people whose life Raj-- as well
as his postings/FOSS contributions would have touched over the years, and
it is nice to see that Raj will live forever in our hearts.

In my case... I was a kid when I first came in contact with Raj in the
1990s... by the BBS he then started... went out of touch... except to ping
him off and on for help-- till I burst back onto the ILUG-D scene around
2006.

I just had a crazy idea. If you have Raj Mathur on your
IM list, you might have been slightly disconcerted to see
him as still being Permanently out to lunch. While that
wording is eerie, we can turn the tables on him. Send him
a short message, maybe with a musical tribute, and also
copy it here. If there is an adequate response, I will collate
all of them, and add them to the tributes. Here is my
message:
Good bye, Raju! When you get to heaven, and you meet Old St. Pete /
Tell that boy, jump for joy:

Re: [ilugd] Shocking and Sad news.

2012-12-15 Thread tuxdna
 Raj was a founder member of the Indian Linux Users Group and a very active
 member of the Free and Open Source community. Well respected and extremely
 knowledgable, he was often sought after for advice which he readily
 dispersed.


One small example of his generosity is the formation [1] of JMILUG [2]
in the year 2005.
It was his [2] encouragement, and the support of ILUGD that made it possible.

Raju Mathur [2], you will be rememberd!


 Rest in peace, Raj Oldmonk Mathur.
