efi config hang
@Carl, I'll repeat what I said in my prior email: you don't have to keep looking, we already achieved what you want (considering that you are willing to "disregard" the screen problems and similar issues, at least for now, according to your own emails).

SOLVED: failed to create ldlinux.sys
I have been having problems with syslinux not working on one system. The error message was "failed to create ldlinux.sys". I checked and mcopy was installed. But upon further investigation I finally found the problem. I were starting syslinux for python (2.4) and in the python code I made it ignore SIGNCHLD. It turns out that this signal state was inherited by syslinux and it made

host cross-compile patch
I tend to use the same tool-chain across various hosts so I made this very simple patch that allows you to pass the cross-compiler name to make ( e.g. make CROSS_COMPILE=i686-nptl-linux-gnu-). I'm not sure if patches should be attached or just pasted inline so I did both this time. BTW, it's relative to syslinux 4 but the same changes work with syslinux 3 although the patch won't

Using MTOOLS in place of loopback mounting
I am trying to build a distribution without having to be root. The SYSLINUX installer typically needs root to do loopback mounting, but if you have MTOOLS, you can use that instead. This seems to work so far: #!/bin/sh # A minimal replacement for /usr/bin/syslinux; assumes that ldlinux.sys # and ldlinux.bss are available in the current directory. You must # specify locations of mkdosfs and

patch to add a menu item in Rgui for RSiteSearch
Please consider adding the following to the next R release (I understand that it's too late for R-2.1.0). It adds the menu item `Search R Site' in the `Help' menu in Rgui (which calls RSiteSearch() on the input string).

Creating floppy image without root permissions?
Hello All: I've recently had to provision some RHEL and CentOS VMWare instances. There was no network connectivity so I had to use a kickstart floppy and DVD iso rather than installing from our repository. To create the floppy I used the following: As root: dd if=/dev/zero of=floppy.flp bs=1k count=360 mkfs.vfat floppy.flp mount -o loop floppy.flp /mnt/floppy cp base_kickstart.ks

Linux -> Win2K file transfer
Just a quick question, in case I'm doing something really boneheaded that could be easily sorted out. I'm attempting to save() datasets on Linux (R 1.1.1) and load() them on Win2K (rw1011, fetched from CRAN today). I get the "restore file corrupted" message every time. I've tried saving with ascii=TRUE and FALSE, and the ASCII versions look OK (it's my impression

floppy drives
Yes, really. I've got hundreds of the damn things here at home, and I want to go through them and get rid of them all. But... to do that I want to read them. I have both a 5.25" and a 3.5" drive, both are plugged in, but in the BIOS, all I see is the 3.5". Fine, I figure I'll take care of those. Nope.

How to add System V Filesystem to Centos?
Hi, I am working on a project where I have to move some parts files from an old Unix server. I have tared the files to floppy disc, but I can't mount them. After doing some reasearch I have found that the SCO Unix ver 3.2 uses a System V filesystem I think. From the article that I have read I need to add this filesystem to my kernel to be able to mount and read the floppy discs. Can
