Re: Who is using which distributiion?
I'm not bashful, and you probably know some already. Red Hat 7.3 on my desktop. Red Hat 8.0 on my other desktop. Clark Connect 1.0 (basically RHL 7.2) on my office server RHL 7.3 on my other server. I am planning on getting Hercules up again, and maybe run RHL 7.1 (64-bit) on it. I did try SuSE one time, but there was an error in my CD and I never repaired it. I did give Debian 3.0 a fly (KDE desktop) but the 'puter had to be redeployed. Don't like the installer, but may give it a go for serving. -- Cheers John. Please, no off-list mail.

Who is using which distributiion?
Hello from Gregg C Levine Thought I'd ask the question of the month today. So, here goes, "Who is using which distribution?". And folks if any of you, are unhappy with saying so, on list, then I shall gladly accept the replies off list. I apologize for taking up so much time, just to find the answer to one completely, and glaringly obvious question. Normally, I run Slackware on Intel, here, and sometimes even Red Hat, on Intel here, on a different machine. I am still curious about the port of Slackware to S/390, that was discussed here sometime ago, if only for the purposes of eventually seeing it in operation. --- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The Force will be with you...Always."

for a, b and c (resierfs) we are ok. I even tried
"mkreiserfs -v2 /dev/sd" suggested on another post
without any luck.
we tried the ftp between two MVS LPARs and had the
same result. I searched the net for the error code on
the mvs side "EZA2590E" but with no clear indication
of the problem.
Thanks

Try dd if=/dev/zero of/ and see how big the file is when it fails. Be sure to have at least 2 Gbytes of space. If you have a _lot_ more, then limit the size by using bs= and count= on the dd command. This will tell you for sure whether your system supports such big files. If that's okay, the try something other than ftp to copy the file. Alternatives include scp ssh there | tar c -C source-dir . | tar xpC dest-dir Mount using nfs Mount using smbfs (requires samba at the other end). Failing all else, try sneakernet. -- Cheers John Summerfield Microsoft's most solid OS: http://www.geocities.com/rcwoolley/ Join the "Linux Support by Small Businesses" list at http://mail.computerdatasafe.com.au/mailman/listinfo/lssb

The maximum size of a file depends on
a) Your kernel - 2.4.x support files larger than 2 Gbytes, 2.2.x don't.
b) libc - glibc 2.2 supports files larger than 2 Gbytes, 2.1 doesn't.
c) Maybe, your filesystem (ext2, xfs etc).
d) Possibly, the actual program you use. Some explicitly check the file's size
in an effort to "avoid a future error."
e) Your architecture. I understand 64-bit machines have supported files larger
than 2 Gbytes for quite a while.
I run 2.4.x kernels, glibc 2.2.x on ext{2,3} filesystems and often have files
larger than 2 Gbytes.
If you think your probem may be d), then try an alternative program such as
scp.

Re: linux under vm
Ralph, "does linux keep up with volumes or something in the kernel" ? Yes, it does. Re-link to your minidisks with the same virtual device numbers they had before, and you'll be able to bring the system up. If you want to use them with the new device numbers, then you'll have to update the "dasd=" parameter in /etc/zipl.conf (for 2.4 systems) or /boot/parmfile (for 2.2 systems) and re-run zipl/silo/whatever, shut down, reset the minidisk addresses, and reboot.
