Recently, in a campaign resembling Hitler's assault on Stalingrad, I setup
up a PIII 450 dell with a 2 HD, dual boot, Linux situation. Mandrake 8.2 to
handle all the modern networking, cdburning etc functions and RH 5.2 to run
a deadended legacy software app. (Entropics Waves). After much work,
I installed the CDRW, the lilo.conf settings appear to be correct.
I launched xcdroast (ver 0.98alpha9) the first time as superuser and made
the initial configs (or thought I did...). When I tried to run it as normal
user from the command line, I got these command line warnings:

Due to my inexperience, I seem to find myself reloading Mandrake 8.1 a lot.
(And for that matter, my second boot Redhat 5.1). The worst part is going
thru all the packages and selecting the ones I want or need.
I suspect there is a way to save all those selections on a file and invoke
them during

I recently installed Mandrake 8.1. My machine is on a university network. I
frequently get a popup KWrited document on my desktop that is labeled
"listening on device /dev/pts/0" and the makes a long list of audio and font
files locating them on several of my partitions. The partitions are:

anyone know that command?

I installed M 8.1 with the high security mode and left it connected to the
lan/net overnight downloading some RPM's. Today I see a KWrited security
warning on the desktop that lists a bunch of fonts and music files in the
/usr/share directory.
Can someone tell me the sigificance of this warning
I'm not sure who is following this string but I have apparently fouled up
the boot sector of the partition table while partitioning with Mandrake
8.1's Diskdrake and cannot procede with adding Mandrake 8.1 and Redhat 5.1

Hi Civileme!
I believe I did both! :(
I was trying tomake the linux 8.1 /root be a ext3 type as suggested and
chose "extended 0x85" under preferences. And the first time I tried to

I have been struggling with getting two linux's (Mandrake 8.1 & RH 5.1) set
up on my machine and have been back and forth so many times on the
partitioning of this drive that apparently I filled up the partition table
or something ... it won't let me finish any partitioning now ...when I try

with no OS, (with ATA33 controllers I believe), two empty HD,(10 gig ...
probably ATA33, 40 gig ATA100) and need to install Windows 98SE, RH 5.1 and
Mandrake 8.1 (Please don't ask why ...that's what I HAVE
toinstall).I have been having fits trying to get the different

decent programmer to port the driver to Mac or Linux? Might be a good project
