Re: [Trisquel-users] How can I make a master boot record without resorting to Windows ?
Followup: That pesky motherboard (same Intel D865GLC as I'm using in a couple other successful Trisquel 7 installations) just wouldn't cooperate, even after I raised it up away from the case with some nifty standoffs, so I set it aside and got another one from a different source and then swapped out the original Pentium 4 CPU, fan cooling block into the replacement, which cured the problem. Short version: the torso transplant saved the head. Three different power supplies helped, too ... It's really a frankenputer now, fer sher: it's composed of all leftover recycled parts, except for a bag of screws from the 'puter store and the Windowless HDD with which I started this thread. Then I discovered that grub couldn't wake up the Trisquel 7 installation that I had made while the HDD was plugged into a USB port on my laptop. Changing the flag on the root partition of that Trisquel 7 installation didn't revive it, so I just burned a Trisquel 7 live DVD and let it have its way with that HDD, to which I hadn't yet added any data. Result: a painless Trisquel 7 installation in spite of all the complications related before in this thread. One piece of advice: Be sure to look up grub's password with sudo cat /etc/grub.d/01_PASSWORD before moving that HDD and its installed OS onto the target desktop, 'cuz if you can't get the primary Trisquel 7 OS to boot up, you're not gonna get to the console to fix the situation. I had to take everything apart and re-marry that HDD with the laptop to retrieve grub's password. Final result: a desktop PC with a circa 2004 MB with Pentium 4, 4GB RAM and two 320GB HDD's. Great for everything except gaming. Trisquel 7 installs painlessly with the best graphics resolution that the monitor can manage and the correct aspect ratio, all by default ... no frustrating user adjustments needed at all.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Can a Lenovo G50-80 Run trisquelgnulinux?
It's worth noting that Lenovo is one of the many companies that try to restrict what kinds of wireless cards you can install in their computers with digital restriction mechanisms. That list also includes IBM, HP, Dell, and Toshiba. Computers from Gluglug are the best choice and computers from Think Penguin are the second-best choice, but if you're going to buy computers from mainstream companies, you should at least avoid these companies which intentionally attack their customers' freedom.

You almost forgot the automoc before compiling to work.
[Trisquel-users] Re : Partition table suggested for installing three GNU/Linux systems
And it seems like 16 GB should last quite a while. I only wonder if I were to install games in /opt if 3.2 GB would get strained. Just do not separate /opt from / (that you can enlarge if you wish) and you will get flexibility! You already plan to use the same type of filesystem. There might be a performance hit if a partition is bigger than it needs Not that I am aware of.
Re: [Trisquel-users] A new ConnochaetOS release
Here's another project that's trying to free Slackware. http://freeslack.net/ The two should co-operate and get the FSF seal of approval.
