initrd trouble with underlying /dev

I've got a machine that has been running Debian for a long time. Its root partition is software raid0. It uses a custom kernel, 2.4.22, which does not use initrd. Instead all necessary modules for booting are built into the kernel: hardware drivers, md, etc. The kernel is configured to mounts d

Autocomplete

Is any familiar with the console feature that narrows the tab completion. For instance if you type tar and hit tab, it will only return the valid files with appropriate extensions, not every file in the directory. I believe it was a feature in Knoppix but I am not sure. Paul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE

Another option is the HP OfficeJet 7130. I have one, it can be used either with USB or network (with card), and is one of their all-in one. Fully supported by HP on Linux (Open Source, even), both scanning and printing. Have had no problems at all with it, works great. I don't have your neat
