After trying everything everyone suggested a couple of weeks ago I gave up and
went on vacation. I've been back all week but now I have to deal with it.
My problem is this: when booting from the hard disk I get "LI" from LILO and
nothing else. I thought that this problem was caused by the fact

I would like to make my Linux box appear to the network like a gateway, sort
of like Wingate running on a 95 box. I've tried IPFWADM and had no success.
Any ideas? Here's the general scenario.
192.168.0.9 is the linux box, named CURLEY
192.168.0.3 is a win95 box named CADZILLA

Some monitors make text unreadable (cheap laptops for example) when you use
colors. Maybe a postinst-script could ask if color-ls should be the new

If you installed win95 *after* you installed lilo) you have win95's mbr.
To boot Linux now you can either install LILO as the boot manager,
with advice from Randy Jones, or you can retain win95 as the boot

Not only that. Shouldn't we add /etc/DIR_COLORS into fileutils?

I like to see that the standard ls is now colorized. But I wonder why the
old one isn't removed automatically? Is there a reason

I will add that `--color' is equivalent to `--color=yes', which is
probably not what you want. If you make any aliases, use
`--color=tty'. You don't want nasty escape codes if it's not a tty.
Try `ls --color | less' to see what I mean.
And fileutils does have a bug with regards to color-ls. It

Sorry all, I know this is not directly Debian-Linux related, but it does

I keep getting thrown off the list because off 'excessive bounces'. This
