I would just do it the good-old fashioned way... I would run mke2fs
/dev/hda, when it informs you its the entire disk, you say yes, fire up
fdisk, and create the fat32 partition.

Forwarding on behalf of a friend, cause I don't know the answer. I
walked him through how to remove Linux from his system, but now
he's having a problem with his partition tables. Any suggestions?

Pros: You can leave your hands on the keyboard.
You can put a couple different kinds of covers on them (soft, hard
grippy, etc.)
Cons: The Toshiba laptops that I have been using seem to have a problem

netstat will list the local service name if it is listed in the servives
file. instead, grep for ssh. Here's mine:

Hey, everyone... I just saw a news item on a website (www.geek.com) that
was about M$ porting its Office apps to Linux. Someone commented on the
item and had run a search for "Linux" jobs at M$. Take a look (I know,
the URL is hideous):

Use "netstat -ltup" (as root) to find out what is using those ports.
-l = select listening ports
-t = select TCP ports
-u = select UDP ports
-p = show the program (or at least the PID) using the port

Yea, but you guys made me and Paul promise not to get into realtime

Have you tried "lsof|grep 20012"? It doesn't always work but alot of the
