So where do the kernels go when you don't have a /boot partition?
I'm now using a seperate /boot partition but it's full now.
So is it possible to change this?

Hmmm...interesting...i was starting to think it was all my doing while
all i really did was the usual update.
Sofar i haven't been able to figure it out..at all.
I've made a completely new 2.4.22 kernel, and the exact same thing
happened, freeze after the INIT: version 2.85 booting message.

Hiya,
Well, as mysterious as this whole thing started it also ended.
Today i did an update which updated the following packages on
my system
binutils_2.14.90.0.7-1_i386.deb
debconf-i18n_1.3.20_all.deb
debconf_1.3.20_all.deb
fakeroot_0.8.1_i386.deb
fontconfig_2.2.1-9_i386.deb
libc6-dev_2.3.2.ds1-9_
I think woody is for those who really need seriously stable machine to
act as a server.
I'm on SID mostly because of the security 'issue' of SARGE.
SID tends to have more broken stuff, but security updates get there fast.
SARGE is 'more stable' but it can take longer before a security update
gets
Thanks for explaining this in the other thread aswell.
What i wanted to ask, could this package be the cause of custom 2.4.22
kernels not going past INIT (today's update fixed this problem) which
i and a few other people experienced over the last weekend?
The original poster mentioned both mplayer
Well, I'm having serious problems with Mplayer, actually with mencoder
to be exact.
I have a load of automated 'vcr' recording scripts.
These scripts have always worked and have given out the right kind of
files with the right kind of bitrate(given in the script) correct
timings, correct audio...
Running SID with latest packages
Nothing but problems here since last weekend...here's another one.
/ is ext2, all others are ext3.
I get a almost 100% use of /
But with du i'm geting nowhere near 1.9GB total which is the size
of my / , in total i get to 568419 used on / if i take du's output as tr

These are the kinda things i tend to learn the hard way, as in today
running into a full partition under linux for the first time ever,
except for the boot partition but that one is so small it's easy
to keep an overall view.
I never knew
Not sure if this is related but i have have weirdness with df aswell

And i don't have thousands and thousands of tiny files to explain
for the difference in reported size, nor could i find open
files with lsof.

I think as you say all you have to do, or at least that's how i did it a
few times is, update your sources list and point to testing aswell,
apt-get update,
apt-get dist-upgrade.
Seems a whole lot better than downloading 2 iso's again.
Stable is very stable...i'm learning to live with it now sinc
Don't take my word for it, i still consider myself a noob and probably
will always do:)
But i have been running debian for a long time now, my experience with
testing is it sometimes can take a long time for a package to get
updated, so if something is broke you can end up being stuck with it fo

I've been following the recent threads on fetchmail and i've been
reading up on it but i'm not quite clear on when one can loose mail.
Right now in fetchmailrc i have "set no bouncemail, antispam -1,
batchlimit 50, keep" as defaults.
Fetchmail in my case fetches email of several pop3 servers fro
Exim passes it on to icourier so everyone on the local network has their
mail on an imap server.
It all works fine and sofar nothing has ever gone wrong, but i still
have 'keep' as default in fetchmail to prevent people loosing their mail
in case i screw up somewhere.
But as you say, mail boxes
Hi,
I'm just trying to build my second kernel...
Last time i did it, the kernel-how-to way, resulted in a few module dep
errors...
So i've searched the web and also came across this one:
http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/system/kernel-pkg.en.html
Now what would be the best way to go about build
I have a 3c509 and it works peachy...i'm running 2.2r4and if i recall right
it also went fine with .r2 without me having to download 3rd party stuff.
cheers

As others have said stear clear of OS specific topics...
Even if you want to start using OS specific stuff later on i think it's best
to start out with real C++.
In my opinion you should even avoid 'plain' C because you'll end up
learning things you can ditch in C++ cause there are more effecient
