Re: overlay programs [LIB]
Date: Thu, 2 May 2002 17:05:05 +0700 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: overlay programs [LIB] Ultimately, I would think that would be fine in a strict Win2K install, since Win2K has no problems seeing the entire drive. Over time as the drive gets used, becomes fragmented and I assume defragmented by any number of decent programs, some of the vital data may eventually migrate betond the 8gb boundary. Still, wouldn't really make a difference with Win2K since it does not have to be on a partition in the 8gb limit to boot, and I would assume that the boot partition would not be any larger than the 8gb anyway, and use the remainder for storage or program install for the less frequently used stuff. Yes, very good point - my question/scenario *should* have read:- I'm just curious - in a 20/30/40GB HDD L100/L110 scenario, if you're going to run Win'2K as your one and only OS, with the boot partition in the first 8GB and seperate partitions on each side of the space reserved for BIOS hibernation - - are these overlay programs totally redundant? And if not, what purpose would they serve in such a scenario? Perhaps make a seperate partition with your recovery info, and leave it static. Maybe even hide it, and then all you would need to do is unhide it and boot to DOS, and you are ready to restore, fix, whatever. I don't think I have heard of anyone having serious problems with a Win2K only setup and no drive overlay. I think a lot of people are so used to using them under Win9x that they go ahead and install it anyway. I have not done so, so I cannot say for certain that this is correct, but it would make sense. That's exactly what sparked my curiosity. Often it's the people who have them already that want to use them again - but I suspect that in some cases it might be a redundant over-complication. Obviously if you NEED Win'95/Win'98/etc, then it's a non-redundant complication ;-) ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

And if not, what purpose would they serve in such a scenario? Primarily, I think you would have problems if you had a total system crash and had to reboot from DOS to fix it. At that point you could only see the 8gb, and if the files you needed to fix whatever problem you had were beyond that, they would be inaccessible. With the overlay running, you could still access all your other partitions in DOS. This is the only circumstance that immediately comes to mind. Sounds to me like the overlay thing itself is introducing a significant level of FUD and increasing the chances that you're going to have the problems in the first place... Wouldn't it be a lot simpler/safer/reliable just to keep all the troubleshooting/recovery stuff in the first 8GB than to do the overlay thing? Actually, if you do the right thing (eg. always let the overlay load first) you don't seem to get any problems ... at least I haven't ... yet ... The problem isn't that you can't GET to your diagnostics/recovery tools. The problem is if everything goes pear shaped, how are you going to back up stuff that you had ABOVE 8 gig? Ditto for files on NTFS partitions ... often you just need to get a SINGLE text file from a machine but you have to spend an hour or so trying parallel installs, different machines, etc. when if it were FAT32 you could just boot off a boot disk and copy it across. You can see I've had practice with this ... probably a bit too much for my liking ... heh - Raymond --- /~\ | | Does fuzzy logic tickle?| | ___ | My HDD has no reverse.

Date: Thu, 2 May 2002 08:11:50 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Lib 100 266 overclock woes - resolved So, having those 2 L100s, I figured out after hearing from you guys that it is not that bad, to overclock to 266. The actual bridging of the pads was not bad, but then the thing would not boot up. Power on, no video. So I figured, it mut not like the 266. So I tried 233, 200. Same no video. So I went back to 166. No video. Trembling in fear a few months back, I put it together back and it was fine. But the gnawing question remained: how comes that most can I cannot overclock to 266 ? So I tried it again over the weekend. Same exacu scenario, same results. But then, after a few more tests, I realized what happened: the damn thing NEEDS to have an HDD ! I was not putting back the HDD during the testing phase. So, with the HDD in, works great at 266. Thank you all for the good directions on how to do the modification. Runs great on my 98 L100, now it will be time to try on the L100 running win2k.

They don't help much on CRT screens, but on LCD, specially small ones, text looks better by a long shot.

Microsoft says that NTFS performs better, but I still use FAT32 on first 8GB, so I could boot from floppy. I use NTFS on second partition because it is not accessible by DOS anyway. If recovery console under XP is anything like that under 2k, its a complete pain in the backside ... gimme the ability to boot and see everything with a plain DOS boot disk anyday (which is what you get if you use an overlay and FAT32) ... lets face it, I can't think of a single advantage of using NTFS on a libretto. Apart from the slight bother factor I also can't see any reason NOT to use an overlay on the libretto given that you can damage the partition table just as easily with it as without it ... you just damage it up different ways if you don't use an overlay compared to if you do use one).

There is also some cpu overhead from ntfs security. Turn off indexing for more speed.. I don't remember the percentages though, and that was NTFS4. It also has a lot less file fragmentation so that's a speed bonus too. You can also selectively compress files or folders. However, it also uses more memory so that may be a consideration if your lib only has 64mb. My affection for NTFS is from the faster recovery after a crash, and much fewer damaged files due to journaling. I guess that is better performance for most things. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2002 10:50 AM To: Libretto Subject: Re: overlay programs [LIB] Date: Fri, 3 May 2002 00:44:39 +0700 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: overlay programs [LIB] Microsoft says that NTFS performs better It's primarily a speed advantage?

Re: overlay programs [LIB]
Date: Thu, 02 May 2002 12:40:11 -0700 (PDT) From: Kevin McClelland [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: overlay programs [LIB] Would it be possible to have a Win'2K/Win'95 dual boot setup (or Win'2K/Win'98) where Win'2K has access to all the partitions on a big HDD, but Win'95/98 just sees the BIOS-accessible 8GB and is prevented from accessing the rest? I'm thinking the first 8Gb could be regarded as the space in which all shared data must go, the remainder would be Win'2K exclusive data (and you wouldn't need to do the overlay thing). It might be possible. I never tried it myself, but it would seem to make sense. With no overlay Win9x should be limited to just the 8gb portion, and never see the Win2k install or the rest of the drive. However, I do not know if Win95 might make changes to the FAT system that could potentially interfere with Win2K, since they are basically seeing different drives. With an overlay running, I would think that kind of activity would be controlled through the overlay, and thus prevent damage to the FAT. I am not certain on that, but it seems that it may happen. I think I used to have problems with the FAT on my old HDD with both Win95 and Win2K every once in a while when I ran a disk scan, but my memory may be failing me. Plus I had both OS running on a 2.1gb HDD on the same partition. Strange that they were able to peacefully (for the most part) co-exist. - Get your free @Elvis e-mail account at Elvis.com! http://www.elvis.com ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

Date: Fri, 3 May 2002 03:06:30 +0700 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: overlay programs [LIB] Would it be possible to have a Win'2K/Win'95 dual boot setup (or Win'2K/Win'98) where Win'2K has access to all the partitions on a big HDD, but Win'95/98 just sees the BIOS-accessible 8GB and is prevented from accessing the rest? I'm thinking the first 8Gb could be regarded as the space in which all shared data must go, the remainder would be Win'2K exclusive data (and you wouldn't need to do the overlay thing). It might be possible. I never tried it myself, but it would seem to make sense. With no overlay Win9x should be limited to just the 8gb portion, and never see the Win2k install or the rest of the drive. Nope, it's not that simple. Win'98 can see my entire 30GB HDD without any overlay. If I used it to write to the partitions beyond 8GB, I'd expect them to become corrupt. I'm asking if there's a way to deliberately prevent Win'95/98 seeing the partitions, but which would not prevent Win'2K seeing the whole drive (I'm thinking it ought to be automatic, whichever OS you choose to boot, gets to see what is appropriate). ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

Are there alternatives for seeing the whole 8MB HDD for Win9.x installations with Libs with this BIOS limitation? You've missed the scenario (several times). Originally:- I'm just curious - in a 20/30/40GB HDD L100/L110 scenario, if you're going to run Win'2K as your one and only OS - are these overlay programs totally redundant? And if not, what purpose would they serve in such a scenario? Now:- I'm just curious - in a 20/30/40GB HDD L100/L110 scenario, if you're going to run Win'2K as your one and only OS, with the boot partition in the first 8GB and seperate partitions on each side of the space reserved for BIOS hibernation - - are these overlay programs totally redundant? And if not, what purpose would they serve in such a scenario? Hmmm... guess most of Bhutan is following all this pretty well.

If you use FAT32 and the drive overlay you can still use the recovery console. It also means that you can use all your DOS diagnostics and recovery tools plus its a darn sight faster to get into ... Microsoft says that NTFS performs better, NTFS performs better in some ways (for instance it is less affected by fragmentation, you get faster index seeks, etc.) however most of these pertain to fast disks (as one used to find in servers and workstations and what one now finds in many desktops). The actual performance increase is minimal if not non-existant in a slower machine like a libretto with its slower disk subsystem. In fact it may turn out to be slightly slower because whilst it may be FASTER to access a bit of the index, there is a hellava lot more bookkeeping required. The 2 biggest disadvantages for me however is that firstly, data recovery is almost impossible under NTFS if things start going pear shaped and secondly, if you find you've left something on the disk and you somehow can't boot the OS, you can either whack in a floppy diskette or borrow someone's computer, be it a Linux, Win9x or WinNT/2k/XP box, put the drive in (I always carry around the drive converter and a screwdriver suitable for both opening the libby and opening your average PC case) and run with it. I think these 2 are more important in a portable computer than the rather nebulous probability of better performance. If you need security, NTFS doesn't offer it anyway as an adversary can always put the drive into another computer. If you need security as well, do it properly and get something like PGP Disk (which runs surprisingly fast on even an L50). As you can probably gather, I tend to have things go pear shaped on me so the ability to recover things quickly (or at least get my work off such that I save time by doing so compared with recreating the work between now and my last backup) and reliably is very important. Anyways thats my 2 cents on the issue. - Raymond --- /~\ | | Does fuzzy logic tickle?| | ___ | My HDD has no reverse.

Is there a vague rule-of-thunb figure for how much? NTFS uses a different file indexing structure to your standard FAT12/16/32 which means that disk fragmentation doesn't affect index lookup times as much (although it will still affect contiguous disk access times) and random index lookups (eg. tell me where the 4356581'th byte of this file is NOW!) are significantly faster. It also does a lot of other stuff for security and bookkeeping so *in theory* you won't need other recovery tools. In practice however if things do go pear shaped for reasons NOT relating to the file system (eg. someone deleting a file, virus, badly behaved program, your libby crashing, overheat shutdowns, etc.) and the file system gets corrupted or you otherwise need to work with it, its a complete pain in the backside. Besides all that extra junk more than cancels out the speed increase on a slower machine like the libby IMHO. For a powerful desktop where you're doing a lot of disk work then ya I can see how NTFS *might* be an advantage but even on my desktop I keep all my critical stuff on FAT32 ... if my Win2k installation dies and I have something that must be done in the next 3 hours, I can still flip over to 98 and keep going where I left off. Lets see you do THAT with recovery console ;-) - Raymond --- /~\ | | Does fuzzy logic tickle?| | ___ | My HDD has no reverse.

I'm following some advice I saw on the list a while ago, using a windows boot disk's fdisk to partition out the first 8.4 minus hibernation space, and a second hibernation partition, then use a disk manager to partition the rest. However, when I tried to fdisk, it can only see 7978 MB, and will only let me parition 1137 MB. Any ideas as to why? I'm using a Win95 OSR2 boot disk, my BIOS hasn't been upgraded (it's still 6.40), the HD is an IBM-DJSA-220. Don't know... What model of Libretto? What OS('s) are you going to run? 3 Date: Wed, 1 May 2002 10:21:47 +0100 (GMT/BST) From: Digby Tarvin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [LIB] fdisk cannot partition 8.4gb Hmm, I make 7,978MB = 8,365,539,328 which sounds close enough to me... (you do know 1GB is not 1000 MB right??? ) I measured the hibernation start as 8,373,335,040 on my 100CT, but the BIOS may be holding back a little more for some reason. Probably rounding to the nearest cylinder boundry according the the mapped geometry (multiple of 16065 sectors). Of course aligning to virtual cylinder boundries is completely pointless, but that is Microsoft for you.. You don't have to reserve space for the hibernation partion if using windows FDISK. It gets the drive size from the BIOS, which automatically subtracts what it needs. That is the advantage of doing the FDISK on the Libretto rather than on a desktop. In fact it reserves 64M for hibernation, and an additional 12GB out of stupidity. The point where you have to be careful is when you use a more powerful os which knows about the entire disk to allocate the space on the other side of the hibernation area. Don't know about the 1137MB limit. Did you enable support for large disks when starting FDISK? Regards, DigbyT P.S. You didn't mention which Libretto you have - they may behave slightly differently.

I would think, it varies wildly, depending of file size, location, fragmentation, etc. I'll try to search Microsoft web site for more info. Microsoft says that NTFS performs better It's primarily a speed advantage? Is there a vague rule-of-thunb figure for how much? ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

Not by an awful lot though in my experience (but then again I've not done many installs on lower specced machines ...) You are right, I don't remember it giving big gains in regular work, back in the DOS days, but improvements during the first phase of NT/2000/XP setup are HUGE. I am talking at least 5 fold. Without smartdrive you will start setup one day and finish next! If you set up other machines, you likely booted with nt/2000 CD. In this case smartdrive is loaded automatically. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.
