RE: ghost linux
If you didn't receive any errors from Ghost during the restore then that part was successful. Ghost will overwrite your MBR, and grub will hang on reboot.You need to re-install grub and that will fix the problem. So far I have not tried to reinstall grub, but I've been told by list members that it can be done. I am still using LILO, in which case I simply execute: /sbin/lilo and that restores the MBR with my boot partition info. I have had alot of problems with Ghost and Linux partitions on my dual boot system as have many others according to Symantec. Specific error is related to bad data read from the image. Symantec claims to be "working on it".

I have one NIC card. It's a 3Com EtherLink 10/100 PCI 3C905C-TX. The CMOS bios settings have Plug and Play disabled. There are no IRQ conflicts with any other devices. The NIC card in the bios states it is assigned IRQ 5. I have 3 machines exactly the same IN EVERY WAY, this means identical, on a peer to peer network connected by hub that has been tested and works. Uplink is off. IP's have been statically set as 192.168.0.101 to 192.168.0.103 respectfully. Net mask is 255.255.255.0. The Problem: I can't ping anything. When I go into Network Configuration, the card is visible. When I go into edit it confirms the IRQ is 5 but when I go to close the window it states Ethernet card can not initialize. Please try again. (or something like that) When I use the command: ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.101 netmask 255.255.255.0 up it states No device found The 3C905C-TX NIC card is on the compatible list of NIC's but when I run the sbin/service network restart I get an error stating restarting of the *3C590* device has failed (something like that) So it is thinking it has a 3C590 card even-though the Hardware Browser tool says that the network device is a 3C905C card. I have a 3C905C card and this has been double triple checked. I have kicked this dead horse long enough and have exhausted my patience. I am new to RedHat but an ol' pro to networking. Please, someone help. Upgrading the 3com drivers wasted one week of my time. I see the same problem with the same 3com card with many other users out there but no one out there has an answer yet...

Also, understanding what caused the problem and how in the first place would be very useful.

Good advice, except that after you restore from Ghost images Grub will hang. I use Lilo and reconfigure it after a restore with /sbin/lilo at the command prompt. I don't know how or even if you can do the same with Grub.

RE: Dual Boot Installation
Jim, If you only have one partition on your HDD and it is being used by W2k it will make a difference whether that partition is fat32 or ntfs. Although you can install RH on a fat32 partition it is not recommended. TTBOMK you cannot install RH on an ntfs partition. I think the best way to handle this is to create the partitions yourself and then tell the RH installer to use the unused partition(s). You probably know that you can use partition magic to restructure your HDD. I feel a bit unsafe with partition magic and prefer to restructure myself with fdisk and Ghost: 1. Make Ghost image on 2nd HDD or network drive. 2. Use fdisk to restructure 1st HDD 3. Restore Ghost image to new partition on 1st HDD. 4. Install RH Bill -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Jim Hale Sent: Thursday, May 16, 2002 10:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Dual Boot Installation So if I already have Win2K Pro installed on the system, start the RH 7.3 installation from a reboot from CD and tell it to use the unused portion of my HD (or however much of it I want to allocate to RH), there will be a point during the installation that Grub will see the Win2K bootable partition and ask if it should be included?

RE: Dual Boot Installation
Jim, What version of Ghost are you using? Are you using MS or PC DOS on your boot disk? Is your Linux install bare bones when you make the images? How is your HDD structured?

Ok, for the second time i have installed win2k pro and linux rh this time 7.3 beta. both times when redhat boots up grub does not see my win2k. my situation is this.. primary master HD 80 gig win2k pro primary slave 80 gig 16gig partition for / 50 meg for /boot 2048megs for swap ive red a howto on getting this to work, but it was a howto on the same hard drive. i installed grub on hda MBR expecting grub to boot first and it being able to boot my other OS's. i plan to make more partitions on pri/slave and install freebsd and perhaps other OS's or distros. i understand i want grub on my current rhl 7.3beta install to do all the boot work. if someone could show me the way or just post to this list a config to get win2k pro to boot on the pri/slave drive when grun is on the pri/mas MBR i would GREATLY appreciate it. Thanks for your time, and im SURE there are MANY others out there like me, i have been running around IRC servers and MANY people were like, i wish i could do that. but redhat seems to trash my other installs. PS* a friend told me that (cant think of the name) another distro went and found all his other OS's and when he rebooted grub had winxp pro i think it was in the list. rhl seems to not do this. trashing other os's or atleast making it appear they are gone. however i dont think this is the case, but ill be DAMNED if i can find them again..

Help! Ghost images bomb out...
Hi, I am using Norton Ghost 2002 to create partition images of my dual boot W2k and RH 7.2 installation on an Intel 686 machine with 2 SCSI HDDs. The Linux partition images seem to be reliable only some of the time, while the Windblows images (both NTFS and FAT32) are 100% reliable. When they fail I get an error: Unexpected packet type: found 3, expecting file data, and Ghost pukes. I have asked for support from Symantec and they have replied with: Symantec is aware of the problem and is investigating its cause. We do not have information at this time about whether or when a fix may become available.One of the following might fix the problem: ...yadah, yadah, yadah... This problem is seen most often when creating an image file locally on a dual-boot computer having Linux and Windows XP. Forcing Linux to check the file systems before creating the image file may resolve the problem. Type the following at a Linux command line:shutdown -F -r now The -F must be in uppercase. It forces Linux to run FSCK on all file systems on startup. The -R restarts the computer. After FSCK repairs any errors, run Ghost to create the image. I realize this is most likely a Symantec software problem, but I can not afford to wait for them to fix it. Is there a chance anyone on the list has another suggestion? I'll try anything. I am desperate for a simple, but reliable, Linux backup resource. Many TIA, Bill

Loooooong pause while initializing eht1
Hi, I have two nics in my RH 7.2 system. Eth0 goes out to the internet through my cable modem and eth1 is connected to my internal network. Both are using DHCP. Eth0 initializes very quickly, but eth1 has a long pause before it is successfully initialized. My DHCP server is a W2k machine. I know we probably suspect the W2k machine as the cause off the bat, but the long pause only recently started. Before now it was very fast. I looked in /var/log/messages and a message is being returned after initialization that says: Netmask: Unknown host. Any idea what could be thecause of this message? TIA, Bill

Hi, Can't remember where I got this years ago when I also personally discovered that MS-DOS Fdisk was a weak little creature.

Microsoft's fdisk is a crippled little beast that only understands Microsoft partitions. There are lots of things it can't delete. I especially like when it tells you that you can't delete an extended partition because there are logical drives inside it, and then tells you that there are no logical drives defined. To do what you're trying to do, you could use Caldera DR-DOS, which is much smarter. You might also be able to run the Red Hat installer and use fdisk to delete all existing 82/83 partitions and save changes, then abort the install. I also sometimes do this by booting to an OpenBSD disk, which has quite powerful disk utilities at its disposal, and doesn't try to second-guess me. - -d - -- David Talkington PGP key: http://www.prairienet.org/~dtalk/0xCA4C11AD.pgp -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGP 6.5.8 Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.75-6 iQA/AwUBPMXarL9BpdPKTBGtEQJtmQCfXDiZr656vX694OV++g143Bhh9P8Anjp7 LJSCXTHfwVqxbAwviXU/raBR =37Zf -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Monitor file changing
Hi, Is there a program available to run under RH 7.2 that will allow monitoring and logging of files changed during program installs and system configuration? The real problem, I think, for most of us newbies is we can't figure out which configuration files are changed to do this and that. Even the documentation doesn't always help and who has the time to try and sort through all of that anyway? If there were a little window that displayed and logged file access and changes that would be a big help. TIA, Bill

Turtle Beach Santa Cruz Sometimes Won't
Hi, I have installed in my system a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz sound accellerator. The proper driver for this card (according to the docs) is the Crystal SoundFusion (cs46xx) driver. When I run sndconfig it always identifies the card as: Ensoniq|ES1371[AudioPCI-97] (a Creative Labs card) even though in modules.conf I have: alias sound-slot-0 cs46xx (put there by a previous run of sndconfig) which I thought should identify the driver to use. Am I wrong? The driver seems to load properly at boot. Also, sndconfig has added the following to my modules.conf file: post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumix -L /dev/null 21 || : pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumix -S /dev/null 21 || : Does anyone know specifically what these commands do or where I can find out? The real problem is that X seems to use the card just fine whether it is recognized as Creative or SoundFusion. Wave files and CD music are audible, but things like game sounds and game music work only sometimes and randomly. I have tried many things to determine what is the cause when the game sounds do and don't play and have been unable to sort out the problem. Any help and/or advise will be greatly appreciated. Bill

Return to Castle Wolfenstein Server problems
Hi All, I am experimenting with a Return to Castle Wolfenstein dedicated server and having a few problems. The server is directly connected to a node off my cable modem. Connection and DNS work great. From the RTCW DOCS I obtained the port input requirements as 27950 and 27960, which I entered into the "OTHER PORTS" text box upon install of RH 7.2 and the firewall as 27950:udp,27960:udp. I checked the ipchains file (in /etc/sysinit, I think) and those entries are there along with several others. The problem is that upon executing and running the dedicated server it appears to be communicating with the WOLFHOST server just fine and appears to be working, but when I go to another machine and get a list of active RTCW servers mine doesn't show up. When I do the same thing on a W2K machine the server does show up. I suspect that the firewall is blocking port access on the RH 7.2 machine. If I am on the right track how can I get it to work? I am a total newbie with firewalling, so please give me all thenitty grittydetails. Many thanks in advance, Bill
RE: Dual boot question
You may have to force LBA32 (see the RH install screen for boot loader slection and check the box). I had to do that myself, as I was unable to get any of the boot loaders to work without it and was stuck with booting from a floppy. Also, I use Norton Ghost to create image files for backup and each time I restore I have to run /sbin/lilo to reinstall to the MBR. This can only work with the aid of a boot floppy because lilo hangs at boot after restore, so my advice is to be sure to create a boot floppy as well. I look forward to the day when I will no longer need a dual boot system and can run only Linux.

CD-ROMs won't mount
Hi All, I thought I had found a workaround for an issue I am having with RH 7.2 and W98 dual boot with trying to restore from a Ghost image. I was able to successfully restore, but lost the Master Boot Record. Once I did FDISK /MBR from DOS it repaired the damage Grub had done, so now W98 boots fine, but RH7.2 won't boot. I tried a reinstall of RH 7.2 and this time made a boot disk floppy. I repeated the restore just to test RH7.2 and again it won't boot because Grub hangs. I tried the boot disk floppy and the system booted into RH 7.2 fine, but now the CD-ROM drives aren't recognized as valid devices and won't mount. Am I fighting a losing batlle??

Hi All, I have a dual boot system with RH 7.2 and W2k. I installed Grub for the boot loader and somehow it has been corrupted. The system won't boot. It only stalls with "Grub" in the upper left corner of the monitor. How can I only install Grub without doing a complete RH 7.2 reinstall? TIA, Bill
RE: Trackballs
No problem with my Logitech track ball... don't know about kensington. I wouldn't use anything else. It has four buttons and a finger ball. I only use three of the four buttons and it works great!

I'm looking at the Kensington TurboBall Trackball, which has two buttons on either side of the ball and a scroll wheel in the middle. I am wondering if anyone has used a pointer like this. I'm not concerned about the wheel much, and if I can only use 3 of the 4 buttons, that's okay, too.

RE: Trackballs ( now Summagraphics)
It's a Trackman Marble FX PS/2. It has four buttons and an optical ball that can be driven with the thumb or finger(s). I have been using track balls for about 8 years now and until recently they were always made for thumb drive, at least most of them. I found that my thumb got awfully tired after a while if I was using my computer alot, but my finger never tires. The optical mouses are alot better than the mechanical and need alot less cleaning. Good luck with your kensington. I have a Summagraphics 12 x 12 digitizing tablet I wish I could get to work with Linux, but I can't find drivers. Anyone know how I can get it to work? It has an RS-232 interface.

Dual VGA cards and monitors
Hi, I have a Dell Optiplex GX-110 which has onboard VGA and I have installed an Nvidia PCI card with 64 Mb of memory to enable OpenGL use. When I boot RH 7.2 the new video card is not recognized by Kudzu. Is the onboard VGA blocking the card recognition? I have no way to disable the onboard VGA with the BIOS, I can only set it to AUTO mode which means that both are working. If I am able to get RH 7.2 to recognize the card will I be able to somehow tell the system to use the Nvidia card as the default VGA device? Can I setup the system to use both monitors like the Windblows "Extend My Desktop Feature"? TIA, Bill
RE: Please help with IP Masquerading
Thanks for the info. The web site was extremely helpful and I now have
iptables working and am learning how to secure my network with hosts.allow
and hosts.deny.
I would like very much to make test comparisons for speed, ease of use and
reliability using W2k Internet Connection Sharing, IP Masquerading and
iptables. I now have W2k and iptables working, but IP Masquerading is still
not working. It seems that unlike RH 7.1 the 7.2 install did not install
the IP Masquerading modules, such as:
ipip
ip_masq_ftp
ip_masq_raudio, etc.
because they are reported as not found during attempted execution. I didn't
manually install them when I was using RH 7.1 on my other box and I have no
idea where to get them or where to put them. Please advise.
Kind regards and many thanks for the help so far,
Bill

If you plan on publishing your results back to the list it
would also be
interesting to see a comparison between ipchains and
iptables, which is also
included with RH7.2. The masquerading made simple howto
provides a quick
example of using iptables for masqerading:

Hi All,
I have setup a new dual boot machine with W2k and RH 7.2. I
want to test
the reliability and speed differences between IP Masquerading
and Internet
Connection Sharing. This new machine has 2 ethernet cards,
one goes to the
cable modem and the other to the internal network (static ip addr =
192.168.0.1). I have tested the machne for internet access
in RH 7.2 and
all works fine. Also, I can ping the machine from all
other internal
network machines just fine.
I was previously running RH 7.1, an upgrade from 7.0, as my
internet server
using IP Masquerading on another machine I have tucked away
untouched as a
backup. The new machine as above is intended to replace this backup
machine.
I added to my rc.d file on the new machine the following from my old
machine:
# IP Masquerading
echo 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
extip = `/sbin/ifconfig eth1 | grep | 'inet addr' | awk
'{print $2}' | sed
-e 's/.*://'`

echo done.
This always worked fine on my old machine, but I get alot of
errors during
boot on the new machine during run of rc.d. The error
messages fly by so
fast I can't read them. IP masquerading does not work on the
new machine.

RE: Help with modprobe, please
Thanks all for the tips! I seem to have solved the module problem with your help, but still can't get IP Masquerading working like it was. There is some error during the execution of rc.local that I don't know how to trap for viewing. The logon prompt quickly clears the screen. IP masquerading is intended to run on my home server. Our network has only 1 other Linux machine, but 4 WindBlows machines and 1 NT4 machine. I have never thoroughly understood whether it is required to have Samba fully functioning on this kind of network for IP Masquerading to work. I did have it working before, and it worked well, but I need to set that up again and have done most of it already (I think). If only I had a reliable back-up of the server boot disk I could have restored, I guess. This brings up another question for another time.
