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 stephen At 04:35 PM 27/01/2001 Saturday, you wrote: 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!

i think you have a problem with your p.c. date it is saying 14/01/2008 at present date = 16-01-01 australia stephen At 08:17 PM 14/01/2008, Charles A. Punch wrote: Mark Johnson wrote: 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. -Original Message- From: Mark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, January 13, 2001 9:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] Mandrakesoft CEO defends Linux using the expert mode on the install, my package install was 347.2mb.

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. ShalomOut Chal
