[newbie] Can LM7 talk to a CISCO internal DSL modem?
I've got a CISCO 605 internal router. The literature all talks about Windows and NT. How do those devices work? How do I get in and see if Linux can recognize it/communicate with it's OS? Mikey [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What I did: (had the same problem) / (about 600-800M) /usr(big one most of all, my case 3G) /boot (32M, enough to put more diff. kernels) /usr/local (about 600M, to preserve own data) /home (depends of the nbr of users) On my 2° HD reside: There is 1 prim. partition = / and 1 extended = /usr, /usr/local, /home On my 1° HD : 1 prim. for windoooz 1 prim. for /boot (set it always as prim.) 1 swap about 256M Eric
[newbie] Installing a lm7, win98, dsl, ethernetwork
I've got an internal DSL modem in my win98 machine (won't work in the linux box), a LM7 machine, and a hub/ethernet setup. Can anyone give me an overview/general steps to connecting the two machines and getting the linux box to see the Internet? Thx, Michael
[newbie] How to install LM7 w/out CD/burner??
Don't have a burner...I'd like to just copy the mandrake directory to a partition of the hardrive and install through DOS. Is this possible? What are the overall steps? I've gotten all the way to the packages menu (in drake) but it always gives an error saying I don't have enough room regardless of how many packages I choose.
