Re: Debian touts dropping full dev for certain archit ectures (incl. S/390)
Occasionally I reply using the names of various previous 419ers, informing them of a leopard-repulsion experiment that went tragically wrong - the Screw-in Screw-on Stainless-Steel Condom (R) The Pentagon(TM), didn't work as a Leopard Repellent as predicted - are we theorizing wrongly, that the leopard would be repelled out of a sense of public duty? - do we need to start on Stage Two of the plan, beeding a leopard that can be reliably predicted to be repelled by the sight of ... - and now we are short of volunteers, and would you, Mr Nice 419er, and your wife, like to volunteer? I only got one reply, and that was from someone claiming to be from the contested Western Sahara - regretfully the Leopard Trainer never contacted him, regretfully I never carried it on. I assume he felt Leopards were few and far between in the Western Sahara. Someone took a 419er in with a Lovecraft-based story, and scared the living daylights out of him, or so I've heard. And then there was Wallace Jersey-Heifer ... ;) Wesley Parish On Thu, 17 Mar 2005 05:33, shogunx wrote: Last week I got one from a woman claiming to be Saddam Husseins wife!

That's as much power as a small house. Then add air conditioning. Not sure whether upgrading electric service or buying a generator would cost more. Maybe renting one long enough to see if it will power up could be done. What are your goals for it? Is it literally 440 volts, or is that just a figure of speech for what is officially 480 volts (if you are in the US)? Well, according to ohms law, it should work at 440, though with a higher current draw. You are correct. 3-phase each phase 120 degrees out of phase from the others at 120V per phase yields 3 discrete 240V circuits (actually about 208V after phase shift, but for all practical purposes its the same thing, and depends on whether you use a wye or delta configuration in your transformer). So figure of speech it is. In an electic company FUD kind of way. tangent Also, is there anyone on this list that operates a s/390 / z-series machine (preferably running linux) in a bank?

But what about with HMC? Now it sounds like the HMC drive won't be usable for what I want to do. No, those files cannot be used with the HMC. The tapeinstall image was built to read data from a tape drive (emulated or real). The Load-from-DVD function was designed to work with the non-IPLable binary kernel images. That can be the Linux starter system such as would be on the distributor CD, or it can be a complete image that you have customized and built yourself. This is the file that the IPLable versions actually load, I think. Someone more conversant with Linux build will have to say where the binary kernel image is stored these days.

IPL-ing by CDROM cannot be made automatic (short of reprogramming the HMC system, I suppose). Someone has to pick the specific .ins file to be used. The HMC will show you a list of .ins files that are on the CD. Choose one. And then, the CDROM is not available as a data device. But what if a 4th file is listed? Would that file be readable as the 4th tape file on the emulated tape? A .ins file specifies an arbitrary number of files to be loaded into arbitrary memory locations. Linux, however, is interested only in 3 things: the kernel, a RAM disk, and a parameter file. Put as much in the RAM disk as you would like (and that will fit). So anyway, this looks like it's doable except that it has to be done on a manual interactive basis for S/390, unless the HMC can somehow be programmed to automatically IPL a specific .ins file upon unattended power-up. I don't think you want the CD always sitting in the HMC drive. The drive is used for other purposes, too. Use the CD as a recovery system and let your production system load from DASD.

You don't have to. First create new physical volumes: pvcreate /dev/dasdx1 /dev/dasdy1 Add new volumes to your volume group: vgextend /dev/vgroup /dev/dasdx1 /dev/dasdy1 At this time you may see the new volumes added using vgdisplay /dev/vgroup Unmount your file system: umount /uxxx Extend your logical volume: lvextend -L+1G /dev/vgroupx/volx (if you want to extend 1 giga).

Is there a commonly-accepted way to find RPM's that satisfy dependencies? Hunting through a google search seems so cumbersome. rpmfind.org sometimes helps. Help with retrofitting something onto old releases is often a good reason to have a real support contract rather than just maintenance. I think libstdc++ is needed but I can't find that for SLES7. Has anyone found libstdc++ for SLES7?

Re: libstdc++ dependency
I actually have compat installed. Shouldn't the libstdc++.so.5 be included in the --provides output? That's what is confusing me. Weird. I'd think it should show up. Check to see if you have the last updates for SLES7. My last SLES7 system does have that library included from the compat RPM -- may be a newer version of compat though (am away from office, so can't check). -- db -- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
Re: Presentations from March 15 Hillgang meeting available for do wnload
I'm still not sure what to do about all this. Others have recommended using some sort of content management system for the site. None of those run on z/VM-CMS so far as I'm aware, and that's where the site is hosted. I don't own the domain name, so I can't arbitrarily move the site to a different host. The domain name has gotten reasonably famous so I don't really want to use a different one. One question: how important is it that the site be hosted on a CMS-based WWW server? If not at all (or it's not a question of resources on the hosting machine), use of a Linux-based content management system running as a guest might be an elegant solution. At least Drupal is known to work nicely on mainframe Linux, and I'd be willing to supply a drop-in appliance Linux system that could support such an approach. From there, it's just content migration and some DNS hacking. It also might be a good opportunity to mirror the site elsewhere in case of connectivity problems (there are excellent tools for that in Linux that I don't think work on the CMS WWW servers). -- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390

To me, not at all important. To the site's sponsor, that's perhaps a very different matter. (Who, for the record, has been very good to me and hence this community.) I'll be thinking and talking about this whole topic with others for a while. In the meantime, to stave off the wolves at the front door (overly harsh imagery, I know, but it's what came to mind), I've put some of the more important items from the last month or so on the main page.
