Re: [newbie] 45G HS only formats to 7.7 G?

is your bios/cmos able to take a 45 gb hdd
if answer = yes then win2000 needs a patch  to be able to use the 45 gb hdd
but i expected it to be in there after sp3 in win nt 4.0

Now this is a bit strange but I just had a similar problem with a 20 gig WD
hd. (20 gig only showing up as 7.0gig after a windows2000 ntfs format) and
when I went to format it back to fat32 it showed up as 7.0 gig also.  I
would change it in the bios only to reboot and have it go right back.  (it
detected in the bios as the correct size until I saved and exited [yes I
saved =) ])  I ended up having to use the WD utility to write 0's to the
drive and then auto detect in the bios.  I never did get this drive to work
with windows2000.  I don't know if it is the same thing here but I used
partition magic to format to ntfs and totally messed the drive when I tried
to format under windows2000!

  Any of you guys have any similar experiences?   U fdisk a new drive, then

  format it ext2 and your 45G drive only shows up ast 7gigs?   Any idea
where
  I should look?  I followed the Administrator's guide.
 
  which said to just mke2fs -cv /dev/hdd1
 
  so I need to mess with inodes and block sizes?
 
 
  On the original HD:  (has more partitions)
  blocks = 19,687,657 on the 8.5 part  /dev/hda2
  start 51 end 2501
 
  On the new HD:
  blocks = 8,241,344  on the 7.7 gig part /dev/hdd1
  start 1 end 16352
  Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundryphys=(1,254,63) should be

  I think this is a CHS issue.   Any ideas on where I would go...  too bad

  My impression is that the Linux community in general cannot decide whether
  linux should be seen as a viable desktop alternative to Windows and MAC, or
  a viable backend alternative to Solaris, or simply as a hobbyist 
 OS.  (To me
  the former is very debatable, the laters are more realistic.)
 
  I think that linux will never be a viable desktop for the masses until
  productivity software is as common as it is for Windows (but then, i guess,
  linux programmers would have to contend with the "dumb windows user"
  mentality).  I know that a couple of months ago the Linux Journal had a
  multi-media issue that showed how linux could be used for generating music
  and movies, and while interesting, it's not even comparable to the
  multimedia power of the MAC and BeOS.  (I can't open any application 
 without
  XMMS "coughing" on me)
 
  To me it seems that despite all linux advances it is still _just_ an
  inexpensive internet sever (web, mail, news, etc..), and a hobbyist OS for
  developers. I think a lot of the reason why is the elitism that Linux folks
  have and distain for the "dumb windows user."  What's needed is a real
  paradigm shift within the community.  Yeah, we have token companies like
  Gnome and Eazel that genuinely care and are compassionate about the 
 computer
  food-chain, but this isn't enough.  (What's up with this in-fighting 
 between
  KDE and Gnome?)
 
  Then again, maybe the fate of linux is never to become a computer for the
  common user, but rather a development environment for programmers and web
  developers. We seem very divided on this issue.
 
  One last thing, I'm not complaining really, it just that I think there are
  different priorities that drive linux compared to the other OSs.
  Consequently, there are opportunity costs and trade-offs.  The thing that
  really bothers me is the elitism.

   I agree.  That's been one of the problems I have with linux.  When I
   hand a linux disk to one of my Windows using friends to try, I tell them
   that the minimum workstation GUI install will take about 1.5 gigabytes.
   Everyone gives me the "Huh".  Why?  Because Windoze 98, with office and
   a bunch of other programs takes about 600 meg.  The distros need
   something like a "Minimal GUI Install" that includes KDE office, One
   text editor, one file manager, etc.  Everything should be available, but
   face it--for these newbies it's not necessary.  Once they find out that
   they really like using linux, then they have room to experiment.  My Mom
   does not need 5 different terminals or 6 window managers, and she will
   never have any use for developmental tools.

Just another 2 cents from a newbie; I use Linux because IT WORKS!  The 
first PC
I ever used was plain Vanilla DOS. Back then we carved our own windows and
climbed in and out of them the hard way, with a little help from our friends.
The Linux community seems to have that same spirit. I have been using Windows
for a few years, but have never liked it. LM was the answer to my problem. I
think that LM could be an alternative to Windows, not by making it more "user
friendly," but by getting more productivity software to run efficiently on it,
without having to be a programmer to install it.  That doesn't  mean to 
make it
"for idiots." Can't we find a happy medium? User friendly, to me just means
"limited."  I would like to see LM become less like MS, not more! LM 7.2 was a
big dissapointment to me. I went back to 7.1, which is the best OS I have ever
used. I hope that the next  distribution will have all the bugs out of it,
because 7.2 would have been really nice, if I could get it to run properly. As
it stands, it was just a tease.
