If you make a small partition below that and mount it as "/boot" all should go well. -- Conor Daly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Domestic Sysadmin :-) ___ techtalk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linux.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/techtalk

RE: [techtalk] Hummingbird Exceed Config.
Hi, Are you running xdm or gdm on your Linux machine? If you are running gdm, you may have a buggy version that requires you to set the debug flag in your gdm.conf file (located in /etc/X11/gdm). You also need to make sure that xdmcp is enabled, assuming you are doing xdmcp broadcasts from your client - which is pretty much the easy way to do stuff in my opinion - although you are on your own as far as the security implications go :). The flag to enable xdmcp is also located in the /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf file.

Re: [techtalk] DSL giving me serious angst
Hi Kristin, Have you tried using the latest version of David Skoll's PPPoE? http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe/ If not, you might find a few answers contained therein. I'm cable-modem connected, so I haven't used it for the full connection, but it was useful as a template for setting up my firewall scripts.
