I've found an old IBM OmniBook 800 and am curious whether I can get it going again. (Currently it boots either Windows 95 or some then-contemporary version of Slackware.) The CDROM is external (SCSI, I think) and the machine won't boot from it, so it'd require a boot floppy. Any suggestions? Or is CentOS entirely the...

I've got CentOS 4.4 installed on 3 machines - two laptops and a PC. Only one, a HP Omnibook 900, shows the graphical battery status indicator (in the bottom right of the screen), but the other laptop (a new Dell Inspiron 1501) doesn't show it. Furthermore, the command /usr/bin/apm gets the response 'no apm support in kernel' - I've tried yum-updating the kernel and install...

I'm trying to install CentOS 3 on an OmniBook 800. (Am I insane?) The bootdisk.img gets things started just fine, but the closest driver on the drvblock.img disk is for the Symbios 53C896, and the Omnibook has a 53C810. Manually choosing the Symbios driver seems to discover scd0, but it's not able to load CentOS from the CD. (I've t...

I have two PCs I use Linux on that I need to be able to run Lotus Notes on. Wine works exceptionaly well on one of these PCs, my HP OmniBook 500. Everything works including replication. My other PC is a desktop unit running the same os (RH 7.1) and the same version of wine (Winex from cvs (20011004)). Notes works on this machine except that I am unable to get replication to work. When I try to create the replica Wine/Notes locks up...

...on Linux using wine. The application uses Paradox database engine. I tried to install the engine itself but failed. Eventually I installed the whole Delphi development environment with wine.

Hello all, I'm trying to install Gentoo 1.4 rc2 for the first time on my laptop - HP Omnibook 5700ctx, P166, 128 MB RAM which cannot boot from CD-ROM. Apparenty Gentoo doesn't have a boot disk making utility. It's said that I must use tomsrbt or a slackware boot disk but I have none of those. & someone on Gentoo mailing list pointed out that I should try syslinux, Ok, download...

...to do this when I converted the root filesystem to ext3, I've never had this problem before. Loading of these drivers fails (since I don't have any of those CD-ROM drives) and the bootup sequence continues as normal, but the attempt to load this takes like 20 secs. My machine is an HP Omnibook Laptop 4150. Any idea on what could be the cause for this odd behaviour? What could be causing the kernel to try and load those devices? Thanks in advance, Diego -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Diego Santa Cruz mailto:Diego.Sa...
