Joel Hammer wrote: I would like to dual boot XP pro and linux (lindows). I have lindows on a hard drive (IDE0). I physically replaced this hard drive with a second drive (still IDE0) and installed XP pro. Now, I would like to have both drives installed at the same time and dual boot this machine. This seems easy enuf but I can't find any references to dual booting XP and linux with lilo, which is the boot software in lindows. Any pointers or references to documentation appreciated. Now, there are basically two approaches: a) To let the XP boot loader to the job, see http://www.linux-sxs.org/administration/win2kboot.html (should work for XP too) b) To let grub or lilo do it, see the attached text which I had picked from a Redhat newsletter some time ago (don't know any reference URL) Klaus Tips Tricks: Dual booting Windows XP or 2000 with Linux There are a couple of ways to approach a dual boot. In the first scenario, let's say you have an empty machine, and because you're a glutton for punishment, you want both Windows 2000/XP and Red Hat Linux. This is a bit like using Earl-shine on a Porsche, but here goes: 1. Partition. Use fdisk to create two partitions of appropriate size for your install. 2. Install Windows. You're on your own here. Time and many reboots go by... 3. Boot into the Red Hat Linux installer, and install into the second partition. All should go swimmingly, until you're faced with a choice between boot loaders and install locations. If you wish to let Lilo or GRUB control the install, so be it. Either one *should* pick up the fact that Windows is already there and compensate. If it doesn't, and your boot loader of choice only boots Linux, a lilo.conf entry should look like: other=/dev/hda1 label=windows A grub.conf entry should look like: title windows map (hd0,0) (hd0,2) map (hd0,2) (hd0,0) setup (hd0) rootnoverify (hd0,2) chainloader +1 (Hint: type info grub at a command prompt for a full breakdown of what this entry means.) You may choose to let another boot loader handle the install, in which case you will want to: Boot into Linux and copy the boot image from the first sector of your boot partition. You'll want to take 512 bytes of this partition once, and write it out to a file called bootsect.lnx. The entry should look like: dd if=/dev/hdX of=/bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1 Move that file onto your c:\ drive and edit boot.ini, adding the following line: c:\bootsect.lnx=Linux On to the second, more common scenario. It's likely that you already have Windows and are testing the waters, taking a class, or planing to migrate. Or maybe you just want to get something done without crashing for a change. In this case: 1. Scandisk, defrag, and empty your recycle bin (unless you want a clump of cruft at the end of your drive.) 2. Repartition your drive with fips (or something similar). Don't bother trying to format this partition--you'll only wipe it out later and certain 3rd party formatting doesn't go right. 3. Enter the Red Hat Linux installer and proceed through the install using the second partition as your target drive. (Hint: make sure to create a boot disk. If something goes wrong, you want to at least be able to get into one of the OS's.)

The Canadian government has distinguished itself by abandoning her traditional allies of Britain and Australia and thumbing it's nose at the US. One of our cabinet ministers standing on the Parliament steps in Ottawa criticized Bush to reporters calling him, among other things, a failed statesman. That followed comments shouted in Parliament by a Liberal (ruling party) MP of screw the US. Another Liberal called the US a bunch of bastards. None of these members were censored publicly for these comments. Remember that Canada is the US' largest trading partner. Just imagine what the trade numbers look like from our side of the border! The US Ambassador to Canada, John Celluci was highly critical of Canada's government a couple of days ago. He also suggested that Canada would pay. As Celluci pointed out, it's ironic since Canada has a handful of soldiers with the US forces in Iraq along with a destroyer and two frigates inspecting ship traffic in the Persian Gulf. We also sent 1000 troops to Afghanistan to backfill US troops freeing them up for Iraq. All this and the idiots in Ottawa are stating we don't support the war as long as the UN doesn't support it. Once again, our government is trying to have it both ways. We stop far short of France and Germany but won't support our allies and partners. We've embarrassed and isolated ourselves.

Re: Dual boot XP/pro and linux (lindows)
Thanks for the detailed response. I really do get confused with booting issues. I recall well when I first started with linux, I decided to really understand the boot process. Now, all I care is if it works! In this case, the suggestion to use the map-drive parameter solved the problem. I will just add some detail here so others may benefit. I bought a lindows computer with linux on the first hard drive. I uninstalled this hard drive, and installed a new hard drive as the first hard drive and installed XP on it. I then put the linux hard drive back as the first hard drive and put the XP drive as the third IDE device (IDE2) or as a secondary master (/dev/hdc). There is no /dev/hdb drive installed. My entry for XP in lilo.conf is as follows: other=/dev/hdc label=MS_W®_XP map-drive=0x80 to=0x81 map-drive=0x81 to=0x80 First, the label. I had typed just label=XP but something is smart enuf in lindows to recognize XP as important and substituted the label you see above. This gives a nice WindowsXP with a little R to show it is a trademark. I wonder why they went to the trouble? Second, according to man lilo.conf, the above entry swaps drives C and D. Now, being simple minded, I changed the 81 to 82 (hdc instead of hdb). But, the 82's didn't work. So, I guess the bios assigns those numbers sequentially to installed drives only. So, everything works, even if I don't really understand it. Which, is just fine with me!

There's another idea that rushed into my mind during a nice walk with my dog: The boot.ini file from your XP install now is in /dev/hdc0, isn't it, after you have moved the drive? And probably there is a line in it like multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(0)\WINDOWS=Windows XP /fastdetect pointing to the first partition on ide0 (and probably a similar line starting with 'default'). Now your Windows XP is in ide2, but boot.ini still points to ide0. So, if you can mount /dev/hdc1 in read/write (it's not ntfs?), change the occurance(s) of rdisc(0) to rdisc(2).

Re: OT We won't back down...
Well, I don't blame politicians. I always blame the voters. And, I wonder what kind of person really goes into politics. Even the best politician can't really be too honest or too bright. And, then, they have to pass through a very narrow screening process courtesy of the extreme wings of their parties. So, I really am surprised that the politicians are a lot worse than they are, given how they are chosen. A good example of a large group of uninformed but noisy and well meaning people is Greenpeace. I read the Greenpeace bulletin board (my nom de guerre there is Tecumseh, pardon my French. They were shocked when I told them I admired William Tecumseh Sherman). They really are the most uniformed but most highly opinionated group of people I have yet corresponded with. For example, they fervently think that wind power is going to be a major supplier of energy. They think that good intentions backed up by strong feelings somehow make for a persuasive argument or is the foundation for good energy and foreign policy. Unfortunately, so do many of our politicians. I came onto the thread late. Let me just add my 2 cents on the failed Iraqi inspection policy by the UN: If you wonder why we had to invade Iraq instead of relying on Hans Blix to find those weapons, consider these facts: 1. Antarctica is getting colder. 2. Greenland is getting colder. 3. The USA weather stations show no temperature increase. 4. Global satellite temperature data shows no temperature increase. This agrees with data from weather balloons. 5. Hans Blix was recently quoted as saying that global warming is a worse threat than weapons of mass destruction. You can draw your own conclusions. That is something that many people simply cannot do.

Our intentions may be good, but something smells. Not in the least. I don't ever believe that massive groups of Arabs would invite the great Satan into their midst and welcome him with open arms. Nor do I believe that anyone in the administration would seriously believe this to be the case. The whole scenario is quite complex, and it's an over simplification to say it's the oil or it's the weapons of mass destruction or it's freedom for the Iraqis or it's Al Queda (sp?), etc. It's all of these things and more. Some aspects of the campaign are no doubt tied up with classified information that we are not privy to, and that's as it should be, although that irks the CIA baiters no end. My 3 cents worth. First this should go to the general list. Secondly, after 22 years in the military I'm a little disqusted by most of this even some of the troops behavior. I still can see the pictures of some of the maintenance personnel captured by the Iraq's whining that they hadn't come to Iraq to shoot anyone but to fix things. Then there were the parents on TV complaining that their boy hadn't joined the Army to go in harms way but for a college education. The generals? You'd have to go all the back to the our Civil War and the campaigns of George McClellan to equal their non ability. They have broken just about every rule in the book. They over estimated Iraqi civilian support for War? Instead of an adoring populas waving palm fronds they have been met with Where's the food and what are you doing in my country? Ignoring the lessons of Stalingrad, Moscow and Berlin they assumed that Iraqis wouldn't put up much resistance against a foreign power on their soil. After taking less than 20 casualties they slowed the advance on Bagdag. A major military blunder which Stonewall Jackson and General Sherman wouldn't have made. In Jackson's words the battle belongs to whoever gets there the firstest with the mostest. Once engaged with an inferior force you neve, NEVER give him time to back away in good order to reform and dig in. The cost in lives becomes greater than if you had pushed ahead. Grant learned that at Petersburg.Let's not forget the great plan to over awe the Iraqis by reducing Bagdag to rubble. The battles Stalingrad and Berlin demonstrated that cities that have been rubblized are great places to defend. The rubble interferes with the deployment of tanks and massed formations of troops. Despite this we keep hearing of the continuous bombing and the effect it has on the Iraqis. Maybe our party circuit generals should take a little time off from the night life to do a little research on just what was the effect that Hitler's bombing of London had on the British or the destruction of Berlin had on the Germans or Stalingrad on the Russians. Then there's the supply lines. Attacking the enemy's lines of communication was has always been a time honored tactic even before the time of Ceaser. A small force in the rear can do more to slow or even stop an advance than divisions in the front. Note the campaigns of Stonewall Jackson and Jeb Stuart. Yet, our Washington party circuit generals were caught completely by surprise by Iraqi irregular forces attacks on the supply lines that the generals has slowed down themselves. To combat this they have had to divert huge numbers of troops to guard the supply lines and ask for 140,000 more troops. Shades of General McClellan! Then there's the top of the command and his toadies. Little Georgie used his daddy's influence to duck the draft. At the time he got in the Texas Air National Guard there were no slots available. He scored lower of the officer exams than many others yet he was commissioned while others with higher scores were not commissioned and were sent to Nam. Thus our commander-in-chief, like the one before him, is a cowardly draft dodger sending better men and women to die in Iraq while all the Bushes remain safely in the US. And the reason for the war? Who knows? The day after 9/11 Iraq was accused as a responsible party. Little Georgie started preaching war with Iraq as the War on Terrorism. Unfortunately, for Jr. and the toadies Iraq seemed to be about the only Arab country without any links to the terrorists, unlike some of our friends like Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Egypt. So the war became the War Against Weapons of Mass Destruction. Bush immediately took to the airways claiming that Iraq had tried to buy nuclear fuel from Nigeria. Bush used that as justification. Problem - middle CIA analysis told the New York Times that the documents were forgeries, that the CIA knew it and that they had told little George that before he went on TV with this proof. He

If you want to experience intolerance in the reverse direction, visit the Greenpeace community bulletin board. There, the people who hate Bush the most use quite insulting language towards people who express progovernment views. I must also say that attaching a man's name to a policy, (Bush Ashcroft's America) and then attacking that man, rather than the policy, was a technique extensively used by the Communist regime in Russia for many years. Thus, the Communists would attack Darwinianism and Mullerianism by attacking Darwin and Muller, rather than the theory of evolution by natural variation and natural selection. It made for a much simpler message. BTW, the person we have to thank for the new homeland (ugh) security regulations doesn't live or vote in this country (USA).

Now you have gone too far. McClellan was heads and shoulders above the crowd. He was the most responsible for building the Union army from scratch. He understood the importance of logistics and understood the huge advantage offered by the Union Navy in allowing the out flanking of the southern armies. He understood that the threat was more powerful than the execution. His men loved him because he took care of them and didn't waste their lives in senseless frontal attacks. He forced Lee into a battle in which Lee lost more soldiers than the Union, which probably never happened again in the war. After he was sacked by Lincoln because he wasn't winning fast enough, Burnside was ordered to take the offensive. Being a toady, which is what Lincoln wanted, he went into an ill-advised offensive, got beaten very badly, and guess who was called back to service to save the Union capitol? McClellan. He handily defeated the Confederates and saved the day, but was criticized for not destroying the rebel army. He was sacked again. The man who sacked McClellan was the same man who made the incompetent Burnsides general in chief, Mr. Lincoln. And, talk about a moving target. As the body counts got dramatically higher Lincoln kept raising the rhetoric, going from saving the Union (who really cares) to saving mankind (say what?). The Gettysburg address is a piece of work. I suspect that the occupation of Iraq will be easier than the occupation of the South after the Civil War. Joel Hate to beat a dying horse, but. You're right McClellen a good training soldier and good at logistics, but he was no field general. In his advance on Yorktown he continually stop the march because he over estimated the strength of forces opposing him and stopped to await reinforcements. At the start of the campaign there was than a regiment between him and Yorktown. His slow advance lead to one of his generals labeling him the Virginia Creeper. By the time he got near Yorktown Lee had rounded up 30,000 men to McClellan's 100,000+ and promptly engaged McClellan in an attack on (anybody?) McClellan's lines of commuication! They fought seven battles which you correctly pointed out McClellan inflicted more causities on Lee's force than Lee inflicted on the Union forces, but after every battle Lee held the ground and Little Mac retreated south until he had to be evacuated.In this part of the country we call that a defeat. Contrast that to Grant's battle of The Wilderness (actually 7 battles)where Grant lost every battle measured in body count but advanced south after every battle until Lee was bottled up in Petersburg After an unsucessful attempt to breakout was forced to surrender.Years later General Patton inelequently this as grabbing the enemy by the nose and kicking him in the ass.Probably the greatest tribute to McClellan's inability was paid by Robert E. Lee. When told that Lincoln had replaced McClellan Lee said he hoped not because if Lincoln kept doing that he would eventually find someone who could beat him. As for Burnside, he was a baffoon, but honest enough to admit it. When Lincoln offered him supreme command he tried to turn it down. Even to the point of telling Lincoln he was not fit for the command. So the error was not with Burnside but with the administration selecting its generals from the wine cheese Washington circuit.

Really, only Exxon and members of the administration do not believe global warming is taking place.

Wehner 1 Estimated global-scale temperature trends at Earth's surface (as recorded by thermometers) and in the lower troposphere (as monitored by satellites) diverge by up to 0.14°C per decade over the period 1979 to 1998. Accounting for differences in the spatial coverage of satellite and surface measurements reduces this differential, but still leaves a statistically significant residual of roughly 0.1°C per decade. Natural internal climate variability alone, as simulated in three state-of-the-art coupled atmosphere-ocean models, cannot completely explain this residual trend difference. A model forced by a combination of anthropogenic factors and volcanic aerosols yields surface-troposphere temperature trend differences closest to those observed. 1 Program for Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Livermore, CA 94550, USA. 2 National Center for Atmospheric Research, Boulder, CO 80307, USA. 3 NOAA Air Resources Laboratory, Silver Spring, MD 20910, USA. 4 Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, D-20146 Hamburg, Germany. 5 Climatic Research Unit, University of East Anglia, Norwich NR4 7TJ, UK. Since 1979, polar-orbiting satellites have monitored atmospheric temperatures on a global scale. Satellite temperature measurements are mass-weighted averages of the microwave emissions from deep atmospheric layers (5). They are not the same physical quantity as the near-surface temperatures monitored by thermometers (6). We show that the observed difference between surface and tropospheric temperature changes cannot be fully explained by coverage differences between satellite- and surface-based

kdmrc, GUI front end, and comments
I got some help from folks a while back about configuring kdmrc. I complained that it would have been nice to make kdmrc self explanatory, since there is no man page for this configuration file. Here is all I saw when I tried to configure kdmrc: [Desktop0] BackgroundMode=VerticalGradient BlendBalance=100 BlendMode=NoBlending ChangeInterval=60 etc But, in my new install of lindows, here is what I have: # KDM configuration example. # Note, that all comments will be lost if you change this file with # the kcontrol frontend. etc.. So, I guess I must have fooled around with the kcontrol configuration tool with this file before I tried to configure it by hand. So, one more reason to HATE GUI's. This sounds a lot like SWAT. I wonder if there are other configuration files which lose all their comments if you use a GUI front end to edit them.

On Thursday I finally had my broadband satellite installed. It's a DW4020 from Skycasters ( http://skycasters.com ) and it works beautifully. It's a bit pricey, ($1,800 installed) and there's a noticeable delay of 1-2 seconds, but once a data stream is initiated it runs very well. I have the 400k down, 128k up package and it's $129 per month with a static ip. Knock $10 off for dynamic. It comes with a 4 port hub that will do NAT if you're dynamic ip'd. I have absolutely zero problems running all my boxen behind a single system doing masquerading. I was a bit concerned about getting my syslogs to relay, but even that was a breeze. Luckily, I didn't have to fund the whole thing, or the monthly fees, and it sure beats dialup.
