I have installed the system from Kanotix live-CD, however I can't access
/dev/hda3
on my HD. Kernel boots just fine. Since I think I had to save conf files
somewhere
else, how can I copy, for instance, /etc/fstab in my newly installed Gentoo? I
can't
save it on my floppy too. Thanks in advance.
Hi,
googled a little bit around and found this one:
title Windows XP Professionnal
root (hd0,0)
map (0x81) (0x80)
map (0x80) (0x81)
makeactive
chainloader +1
This one will map the second drive (/dev/hdb) to the first drive (/dev/hda)
and vice versa. I'm not using grub but lilo so I can't confirm
Oh,

Hi folks,
kuser of KDE-3.4.1 is crashing on start-up. I looked around in KDE's ug db but
didn't find it mentioned. So it doesn't seem to be a general problem. That
leaves two possibilities: It's a Gentoo problem or my system is messed.
Anybody else experiencing the same thing?

Nevermind. I found that I can put my alias command in ~/.bashrc and it
works fine. Is this new? I could have sworn that in Gentoo 2004.3
aliases went in ~/.bash_profile...

Hi,
I run a couple of gentoo boxes which are mostly servers. Is there a way
to omit certain portions of the portage tree from emerge sync so that the
sync will go faster? For example I would likely omit any X and games

Thanks,

Thanks Michael and Edward,

However it seems that it is working after I deleted the file

Hi all,
I've been away from my gentoo box for a month
and now after massive system upgrade
usb adsl modem startup script
complains about missing /dev/net/tun device.
I can start it manually later so it seems to be a dependency issue
probably related to recent udev upgrade. Suggestions appreciated.
Hello All,
I notice that on my laptop, my KDE startup sound is quite garbled.
(Only when starting up). Im guessing that this is due to heavy resource
use. I was wondering though, how I could go about giving Arts or whatever
it is, a higher priority at boot so it doesn't sound so bad.

Yeah, let me echo that.
If you run Linux, and you want to play games, and you want a brand new
