Subject: POSIX.1 Shared mem support
Hi Folks,
I'm looking at doing shared memory stuff on Linux and it doesn't seem
to support POSIX shared memory. Is there any effort towards
implementing that or am i stuck with mmap?
cheers

Can I just download the source for 2.2 and compile it ? Will it work
with apps and sys utilities from 2.0.36 ?

How are you using fdisk?
How are you calling mount?
If you have any fstab entries for the drive, please post that.
The Iomega zip drives actually show up as the last partition on the drive. I don't
know why.
In your case, you'd probably find it at
/dev/hdd4

Hi,
I'm trying to make my ATAPI ZIP drive work in my linux
box...
I have used kernels 2.0.36, 2.1.132 and 2.2.1 with
ide-floppy or ide-scsi and the problem persists
As and example when I use kernel 2.1.132 with
ide-floppy and ide-scsi
as modules I get when I boot:
kernel: PIIX4: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 39
kernel: PIIX4: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs
later
kernel: ide0: BM-DMA at 0xf000-0xf007, BIOS
settings: hda:pio, hdb:pio
kernel: ide1: BM-DMA at 0xf008-0xf00f, BIOS
settings: hdc:pio, hdd:pio
kernel: hda: ST33221A, ATA DISK drive
kernel: hdb: Hewlett-Packard CD-Writer Plus 8100,
ATAPI CDROM drive
kernel: hdc: SAMSUNG SW0434A (4.3GB), ATA DISK drive
kernel: hdd: IOMEGA ZIP 100 ATAPI Floppy, ATAPI FLOPPY
drive
kernel: ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
kernel: ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15
later doing an modprobe ide-floppy results in:
hdd: The drive reports both 100663296 and 100646912
bytes as its capacity
hdd: hdd1 hdd2 hdd3 hdd4
when I try the ide-scsi module the message is:
hdd:3ide-scsi: hdd: unsupported command in request
queue (0)
end_request: I/O error, dev 16:40 (hdd), sector 0
unable to read partition table
scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI
devices
scsi : 1 host.
Vendor: IOMEGAModel: ZIP 100 Rev: 13.A
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI
revision: 00
Detected scsi removable disk sda at scsi0, channel 0,
id 0, lun 0
SCSI device sda: hdwr sector= 512 bytes. Sectors=
196576 [95 MB] [0.1 GB]
sda: Write Protect is off
sda: sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4
In both cases note the 4 partions reported but the
ZIP disks are brand new from IOMEGA.
When I use fdisk it reports 4 partitions with lost of
errors and when I try to mount the disks it says there
is no msdos filesystem in the disk.
Any help is welcome...
Thanks,
C.A. Santos

Has anyone managed to bootstrap gcc or egcs under 2.2.1? I have a RedHat
5.1 system that has recently been upgraded to kernel 2.2.1. I had
problems compiling some other compilers so I decided to bootstrap egcs and
then when that failed I tried gcc instead. They both crash because of a
missing file xgcc. I could find no reference to this in the INSTALL file.
I assumed this should point to the current C compiler - i.e. a starting
point to bootstrap from. Hence I did a clean and then set xgcc to point
to my current egcs installation. This gave a Signal 11: Internal compiler
error both with egcs and gcc. This is not a hardware
