Ben Collins just told me that the .config file for your installed

Suppose I wanted to build my own kernel, and I wanted to use the .config
file used to build a kernel-image package as a starting point. Where
would I find that file (or how would I go about creating it) ?
I'm comfortable with make-kpkg, and I've used it to build many a custom
kernel. What I'm
Any help with this will be greatly appreciated-- I'm a bit of a holdout in
a Red Hat shop, and I've always claimed it was the ease of upgrade that
made me prefer debian... this will teach me not to monkey with an upgrade
until it's stable!
I tried to upgrade to Frozen from Slink using:

Go to your local library and ask for "Learning Perl," (Schwartz and

It sounds as though you have some confusion about the differences between the
smb networking protocol, which SAMBA and windows file and print sharing use,
and the tcp/ip network protocol with BIND, which Linux and Windows TCP/IP use.
This confusion no doubt is due to the fact that Microsoft deci

What is the output for a particular mount command, e.g.:
mount -t iso9660 /dev/gscd /cdrom
?
It looks like you have "cdrom" (a string) instead of "/cdrom" (a mount point)
somewhere.

I had a similar problem putting the hamm (2.0) "beta" on a Thinkpad 600.
I remember 2 boot-related problems:
1) I started the install from a floppy, and I remember that I had to go and
find a floppy image that would boot-- I think I found it in Japan. The "tecra"
image did not work, but this
gh packaging this thing, drop me a line.
I'm clueless.

I'll second that.
I've got a large CTX monitor (2085) at home that I've had for several years,
and I hate it. Blurry, prone to wavering, severe screen curve. Save your
eyes, buy Sony or something you've looked at and liked in a shop.

...So I did a chown lp *, but I was in /etc, not in /var/spool/lpd . Oops.
Could some forgiving soul mail me an ls -l /etc of a 2.0 system? I think just
about all of those files/dirs are owned by root, but I'd like to be sure.
Does dselect/dpkg keep a log of the individual package install script outputs?
That stuff tend to just go flying past me on the screen, and I occaisionally
catch a glimpse of important installation/activation instructions. Where can I
go to find out what I'm missing?
I don't have any trouble configuring Samba.
It's the combination of Samba, ipmasq, and diald that I'm wrestling with.
