G'day,
I just received a laptop from my school to use over the holidays, but it has
Windows 2000 installed on it at the moment. I want to install Linux on it,
but that would involve removing the current OS.
Can anyone suggest any tools that I can use to make an image of the hard

Hi,
I have a RedHat 7.3 system which has / and /boot partitions Raid-1

I can ping the server, things that are in memory seem to still work - but
anything that has to go to the filesystem will

otherwise this could take a long time :-)

Does anyone know of a way to print Excel or Powerpoint files in Unix (without using
a Windows printer driver). wv handles word documents fine through conversion to
postscript, but the only conversion facilities for Excel and Powerpoint I'm aware of

Im copying 40g drive onto a 120g drive. I am using a CD live type linux
distro.
using the command
# dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdc bs=2048k
The thing is I dont know if its working, dd gives no active feedback. I
dont think i could even ^C it. I left it running for some >12hrs, hard

How can we auto-mount a network share folder from windoewz to linux? I
knew that we can achive it by editing fstab file, but when the share
