mounting iso9660 as rw
This may sound odd at first, and useless later, but I would like to add some files to a iso9660 filesystem. To be more exact, I have an iso of a CD and would like to update it with my own stuff. I tried to loop-mount it with rw option and even have /c/redhat/valhalla-i386-disc3.iso on /rh73/d3 type iso9660 (rw,loop=/dev/loop2) in my mount output. However, when I try to write inside /rh73/d3 I keep getting Read-only file system message. I think I could copy all the files from the iso, and my own, and rebuild the whole bunch, but I just don't like the idea. Any other suggestions? Am I missing a fundamental of loop/iso9660 that prevents this from happening?

Am I missing a fundamental of loop/iso9660 that prevents this from happening? I'm not familiar with the details of the iso9660 filesystem, so maybe somebody who is can correct me, but here is my guess: making a iso9660 filesystem modifiable means you have to handle non-contiguous files; When enlarging an existing file, or when deleting one file and adding another file of different size or several files, you would get non-contiguous files. This will mean you need to have some sort of structures in the filesystem which point from one block in some file to the next block in that file. normal filesystems have that, of course, but I'm not sure iso9660 does, seeing that it was always meant only for writing once using a utility like mkisofs(8) (but as I said, maybe I'm wrong). Correct me if I'm wrong, but even CD-RW were meant for *rewriting* the whole disk, not for changing a single file on the CD (note that there's also the notion of a session on the CD, but I don't think that that would help you). Maybe someone can recommend (or google) a good document about the iso9660 filesystem. -- Nadav Har'El| Monday, May 27 2002, 16 Sivan 5762 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |Martin Luther King said I have a dream, http://nadav.harel.org.il |not I have a plan. = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Maybe the IBM team that did the OpenOffice Hebrewivisation can present a talk about the technical challanges and solution of this?

If we'll organize a Linux day then it shouldn't be a bunch of Linux users talking to a bunch of Linux users. We should use it to promote Linux between the people that don't yet use it. Can linux help you as an Engineer? If yes, then get someone who uses Linux to tell how can it be used instead of a MS platform for Engineering purposes. Can Linux help you as an accountant? Show that too. Show people how IBM, Compaq, SUN and other companies help Linux in Israel and how can these people benefit from moving to Linux and using these products. Show how can Linux be used in education. Linux is used in the IDF, perhaps we can get someone to talk about that too (non classified uses) . In general, the idea is to promote Linux among people who don't know it. It'll take more than 2-3 hours, but why can't we have a linux DAY? lets say from 9AM to 2-4PM. -Peleg.

Show that too. Show people how IBM, Compaq, SUN and other companies help Linux in Israel and how can these people benefit from moving to Linux and using these products. OK, how about something like this for a 'working draft schedule' of such a day. This is just an example to try and show that we can combine the 'sides': 0. A short introduction to Linux from the perpective of someone who does not know much about Linux that explains what it is, who we are, where to go to learn more. During this introduction Linux-people can be outside (well except the speaker ;-) mingeling. 1. 'Official' opening. Say thanks to our sponsors and oteh rniceties. 2. A lecure by a representative of one of our sponsors, which will include a brief general introduction to the full range of Linux products and services it offers and then a longer and more technical focus on one or two of them, preferbly something new that is not very known in teh general Linux using crowd. non-Linuxers will get to know that the sponsor supports Linux and learn a little about it's offering while Linux people will learn something new too. 3. A lecture from the Hebrew porting team in IBM that will describe the porting effort of OpenOffice adn Mozzila. it would be best if the talk will include both technical details (giving some light on how difficult or easy is is to Hebrewvise Linux software, for the benefit for both Linux old timers and the non Linux croewd) *and* the more business side of the whole deal - why, for example, IBM has chosen to invest money on adding hebrew support to products that seemingly belong to two other companies, (Sun and AOL), which will shed some light on the kind of synergic proccesses happening inside the Linux community (for a definition of this community that includes open source and free software at large of course) that help to drive Linux development faster then any other path and what does this can mean to people using people (this is mainly a Linux marketing bit, but it focuses on a specific exmaple that serves to explain a very fundemental thing about Linux which is usually missed on new comers) 4. A lecture by, for example, your truly about building embdded systems using Linux. Again, maintain a good mix of both technical details (what you need to do, problems and how to overcome them, some examples) that will help the people familier with Linux but not with embedded and at the same time say some stuff about why Linux?, how does *this* issue is handled in Linux (e.g. real time) etc. that will cater more to the embedded savvy but non Linux crowd. 5. Screening of Revolution OS. A chance for us to sing along with the GNU/Stallmans the Free software song and for the non linux people to get to know who and what we are. OK... I think you've got the idea. In general, the idea is to promote Linux among people who don't know it. Well, if we can also combine this (and I think we can) with learning something new about Linux and having fun, I'm all for it. A simply sell sell sell marketing event I don't want to attent or help organise and I have serious doubt will even do much good. Remember we're doing this for fun, kids. It'll take more than 2-3 hours, but why can't we have a linux DAY? lets say from 9AM to 2-4PM. heheh.. big eyes you got Peleg, no? That's ok, just let's make sure we can also swallow.

Re: Elections
Hmm, do we have any nominees for such a thing? Do *you* want to be the IGLU president? And what does being the IGLU president actually means? Do you get an increased quota on the linux.org.il machine and get to decide which distribution gets deleted when the mirror disk gets full? finance officer? To run which finances, exactly? Nominees - well, I was hoping that people would suggest themselves as nominees.. Do I want to become IGLU president? no, and I think a person who fits is one who have a long history with Linux Unix, was on this list for quite a long time, and done before some management work - after all, this is a title and this person would be interviewed in case the media wants to ask questions about Linux... If there's something that I want to become - is a spokeman - to answer the media about questions, and work with the elected president to setup IGLU meetings, etc... Why a finance officer? because I do want to approach companies who's using Linux to make a revenue, and ask for some money and/or hardware contributions. Today, to setup an IGLU meetings we practically need to beg for favors from companies and when you get the place, you need to buy stuff like kibood, get accessories (Audio stuff, maybe a projector). Also, it would allow us to buy some hardware (like hard drives) for the IGLU server and maybe even add few more servers, add some hosting on other ISP's, etc.. What's wrong with continuing to run IGLU as an anarchy? Nothing is wrong, but I think it's time we have an organized Linux users group (like SVLUG - only smaller)...

Re: Elections
Well, Hetz, will you please try and search that archives for both the against and the for? There were enough points against for a group of fairly intelligent people (unless we all got significantly smarter with the years) to reject the idea repeatedly. I will look later (my machine is half basted with 2 kernel panics, trying to find out why).. Now, I am not saying I am against, and I am hereby publicly stating that I am willing to start paying reasonable membership dues until I find out that the amuta is not worth it for one reason or another, but given the history of this idea I think we should first go over the reasons why it was rejected in the past, and verify that the reasons are no longer valid, or that there are now more arguments pro that outweigh the arguments contra, and understand what has changed. I'm NOT ASKING anyone personally to contribute a SINGLE shekel! I'm talking about goverment funding the amuta + contributions from companies to operate this. Whoever takes this task upon him/herself and succeeds will be automatically nominated (not necessarily elected) the President.

Re: OO: rpm libc error
Hello group, I have finally managed to get Open Office. I got both debs and rpms + the libstlport4.5.gcc3-4.5.3-5.i386.rpm. When tried to install the package (rpm -ivh) I got a dependencies message about GCC_3 and stuff, so I inserted my RH7.2 CD and installed the appropriate rpms from both installation CD's. After installing all the required packages I left with one dependency: error: failed dependencies: libc.so.6(GCC_3.0) is needed by bidi-openoffice.org-1.0.0-5 I looked for glibc and libc (or libcap in the cd's) but these versions were already installed, and gcc3 was installed too. Before a minute I downloaded glibc-2.2.5-34.i386.rpm which suppose to come with RH7.3 (from rpmfind.net) and in the html information file I saw it *provides*: libc.so.6 When trying to install this glibc I see it needs glibc-common which is 10 M ! (not enough bandwidth for it) Is it really important for me to download these ?

What I do think that needs to be done is elections for doing what you proposed or not. We all belong to the list and ppl have the right to decide what will become of it, before you mail the amuta papers. As for donations, I have an old 266 Alpha with no HDD, maybe you want it ?

Re: Elections
Second, I don't understand where you got the idea that the goverment is planning on giving the whole jackpot to a newly founded amuta of people that linuxam omanutam. According to that article, the committee (linux-il is NOT that committee) is going to give money to programming-groups in commercial companies and universities working on making Hebrew free software. And why do u think the Amuta should get the money? it could be possible that the goverment ask the Amuta about company or companies who speciallize for XYZ projects and the Amuta should connect the goverment with the company (or companies). It could also be possible that those companies will need to give a status report every month about the development status of the project to the Amuta, which will report back to the goverment. I suppose that a company like IBM, which has provably done good work in this area, is going to get a substantial chunk of the money to persuade it to continue its work. Someone in one of the universities might get a grant to sit for 6 months to create a super-duper Hebrew Linux distribution. But I don't see why the government would ever want to pass substantial amounts of money to linux-il, amuta or not. Read the part I answered above.

Re: mounting iso9660 as rw
Hi, On Mon, May 27, 2002 at 11:46:46AM +0300, Dan Kenigsberg wrote: This may sound odd at first, and useless later, but I would like to add some files to a iso9660 filesystem. To be more exact, I have an iso of a CD and would like to update it with my own stuff. I tried to loop-mount it with rw option and even have /c/redhat/valhalla-i386-disc3.iso on /rh73/d3 type iso9660 (rw,loop=/dev/loop2) in my mount output. However, when I try to write inside /rh73/d3 I keep getting Read-only file system message. I think I could copy all the files from the iso, and my own, and rebuild the whole bunch, but I just don't like the idea. But this seems to me to be the only clean way. Of course, it might won't work for you at all (e.g. if the image is of a bootable CD which you can't create yourself, such as an NT installation CD). Any other suggestions? Am I missing a fundamental of loop/iso9660 that prevents this from happening? Yes. Without being an iso9660 expert, as I understand, you will have to move around a lot of things to update an iso image. What you *can* do, which might or might not help you, is create another session, to be burned after the image you already have. See the options '-C' and '-M' of mkisofs. Note, I havn't tried this myself. You might also find UDF (google) interesting. It's writable, is the standard for DVD, I think works automagically in recent windows versions, and seems to be in stable beta state in linux. I never tried it myself, even readonly. Good luck, and I think many would like to hear your experience when you have conclusions.

APM does not fully work with my laptop, which wants ACPI. Matters got worse in RH7.3 over the RH7.2 updates kernels, and although I used to be able to suspend, now if I even shut the lid, the screen will go sleeping with no apparent chance of coming back. Lukily the keyboard still accepts input, so that alt-ctrl-f1 followed by reboot will work. (I don't need to do ctrl-z because I wrote a one line script that replaces startx and calls startx with some as a backround process, redirecting stderr to a file. Much better for diagnostic purposes). So, what do I need to do to patch the kernel for ACPI? How long does it take to recompile it? (may become a habit, to keep up with updates) Do the patches change when a new kernel comes out, even if the to be patched code wasn't touched in the new release? Can I combine all my settings in a file so that next time when I recompile a kernel it knows what my preferences are and automates the process?

Strange 3com 3c905b card problem
Hi List, I'm trying to use a 3com 3c905b card with an old 10m hub. It seems that no matter what I do(force Half+10mb) that card still prints out that he think that there is an duplex mismatch, and simply unable to transmit anything. Any other machine connected to that hub automatically use 10baseT HD. Communication is possible, but 95% of the packets are lost. I tried to raise the debug level, but nothing really was there. however it works perfect with M$ L Could it be a driver problem? Thanks, Ohad.

The IGLU should be divided into a Political and a Militant arm. The politicians (i.e., the Amuta) must issue statements condemning any and all behavior that even hints at violation of any laws or ethical rules. In the meantime, the militants could continue to violate all rules and laws with impunity and issue statements that they are doing it to revenge Microsoft's new licensing arrangements (for example). This seems to work very well in the current world.
