Another difference: upgrade only "upgrades" that which is already on
the computer. Any new packages have to be installed explicitly, after
the upgrade.

When using ftp which came with my 6.2 installation, to download the
new 7.0 iso images, I'm getting dropped by my cable isp, on what seems
to be a random basis. Should I be doing something special that I'm
not? I've been using default settings, to this point.

Just upgraded to RH7 and all went fine. One question, though. With
the 6.2 UP Kernel, my machine would automatically power down at
shutdown. Neither the UP nor SMP kernel shipped with RH7 will do
this. Is there something that I should differently?
TIA

Further, I just did a "man halt" and discovered what seems to be options
added, presumably by Red Hat. There is now a "poweroff" option,
documented in this man page. "powerdown" will give the old behavior
fromt the halt command, e.g. halt, then powerdown.

I've made room for the boot partition on hda, below the 1024 barrier,

what I've read, you'll be better off leaving Windows as the first

I'm well aware of the 1024 cylinder limitation when LILO is used as the
primary loader. However, does this limitation also apply if it is the
secondary loader, e.g., used with BootMagic?

Did you have a look at where your linux boot partition is located? If it
ends above the 1023 cylinder, it will not boot. Partition Magic will show

never again in that boot session.

I added the append statement as below (actually hdc and hdd). But,
apparently, scsi emulation is not figured into the default kernel.

My solution to this, which has worked flawlessly, is to use Partition

partition below the 1024 cylinder limit. Linux does not have to be

I've just seen a posting from VA Linux, indicating the availability of
"VA-Enhanced Red Hat Linux 6.2 http://www.valinux.com/software/
Looks like they've added some current Power Tools, the kernel update
and some other updates. Am I missing something or is this not worth
the bother?

I've just this afternoon upgraded to Sawfish (nee Sawmill) 0.27.2 I
note two things:
The new release seems dramatically faster with Netscape. Also, when
Netscape opens, it now is fully maximized, something I could never get
0.24 to do.
Second thing is the addition of window manager sound. I'm
Two. First, to prevent core dumps, put ulimit -c 10 in your
/etc/profile. This will limit the size of core dumps to whatever
number you specify, e.g. 10
Second, Gnome (on my machine) leaves old files (I think they are lock

I've always gotten this message if I open more than one instance of
Netscape in an account. I'd thought this was normal behavior.
Have you gone through you user accounts to be sure there aren't any
stale lock files laying about?

When I run the Helix-Gnome installer, I get a message saying I have
insufficient disk space and that I should free up 43.6 Meg. However,
I get a dialog box which will allow me to continue.
My df shows:

Have you looked at the manufacturer's wed site? Dell, from whom I
bought this machine, lists all that information there.

I have just first looked at a file in my /var/log directory, named
secure. It contains a few entries like this:
Jun 3 23:20:24 CV150607-A in.telnetd[1089]: connect from
199.224.86.36
Can someone tell me what this file is for and what this entry means?
Thanks.

There is also an extensive Howto on kernel upgrade on the Redhat
Site. The update instructions, IMHO, are remiss in not pointing there.
