Hi All, Just started to try to get 1 windoz program to run in Ubuntu since I can't find a good alternative. Been running Ubuntu for 3 years but this is above my expertise. Profili is airplane wing profile software that will generate G-code for a CNC router. When I try to get it to run under WIne it gives me this error and quits... "Impossible to open database

Can I boot to memdisk using loadlin.exe? I saw that there were references to loadlin in the memdisk init.S (at least in the 2.04 version) so I thought it would be possible. If there's some resource that I can refer to I'd love to know that. DR-DOS 7.02 loadlin.exe 1.6c Sorry if this is a FAQ, I looked through the digest some before I joined this list, but I didn't see anything there

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Could someone possibly clarify the relationship between these 2 programs? I am in a situation where I am developing for an embedded system, and I need to rewrite my CMOS before I actually boot into linux. ~ The only tools for manipulating my cmos happen to be DOS utilities, and I was hoping that I could script their use in autoexec.bat or somewhere

Rsync speed seems to be effected more by latency than bandwidth, why is this? I have been happily rsyncing all over the world for some time, but today I had cause to sync 40GB of data to all our remote sites causing me to look closer at the statistics. We effectively pull data using. rsync -az --delete --force hqserver::filesystem /export/sync/filesystem Our network is a 20Meg+ T3 at HQ and a

Hi, I'm a newbie on all of this so this might be a very stupid question! I have a DOS boot disk which loads generic USB drivers to make my USB pen drive accessible under DOS. The pen drive has a number of floppy disk images on it of various utilities and I want to mount these using MEMDISK via LOADLIN. All my attempts so far either freeze the PC or reboot it! I have tried running it from

I started with Vivek's ELF bzImage patch from Oct last year, mashed it to apply to hpa's new setup/boot code. This patch does a couple of things, which would probably be better split into multiple patches: 1. Glue an ELF header onto the front of bzImage. This is a real ELF header at the front of the file. Breaks akpm's laptop, apparently, but it works for me. 2.

Hi, Just FYI: I've create a template disk image + small shell script for creating a multi-disk linux boot floppies for kernels and/or initrd's with a size > 1.44 MB. It's based on FreeDOS Beta 8, the XMSdsk ramdisk and Loadlin: http://www.rocklinux.org/people/clifford/MDLBL/ I primary wrote it for ROCK Linux <www.rocklinux.org> but it might be usefull for everyone who

Seems extlinux need to modify the MBR of the hard disk. Am I right?

First I'd like to thank you, and everyone who has contributed to the isolinux development. It has been the solution to many of my development needs. Currently I am creating a Linux system that runs directly from CD. Currently the CD is working and I am using isolinux to boot the CD. The compressed kernel is approximately 2 meg and the compressed initial ramdisk is approximately 4 meg.

Hello list. I have configured a Linux box for booting from a Compact Flash instead of a Hard Disk, this is an IDE CF, Syslinux is on the MBR because it loads, when I put the the kernel file named as linux as it expects i load it but when I rename it expecting it to load the SYSLINUX.CFG it does not load the menu as I would like, I will put two images on that Compact flash in order to boot from

Hi all, Do any of you have any ideas for getting a DOS floppy to reboot to the hard drive (which may contain Windows 98 or XP or Linux or Novell etc etc)? I want to use syslinux, but it does not support the localboot option like pxelinux and isolinux do. Basically, I want to boot DOS from a floppy, run some DOS stuff, then reboot to the hard drive while leaving the floppy disk in the drive.

Is there a method to reboot a memdisk (floppy) image? I'm working on a DOS-based installation floppy that needs to repartition the hard disk prior to proceeding. DOS will only recognize the updated partition table after a reboot, but I'd like to be able to save information to the currently loaded memdisk floppy disk and simply reboot the image. Possible? I haven't had any luck with

Seth, Thank you for your reply. I'm sorry to bother with this, but what is the "root pivot" function and where can I find doc's on it. From what I understand from your email the system would basically boot twice. Once from a stripped kernel on the floppy disk to mount the CD, and then after the CD is mounted it would reboot with the kernel and initial randisk found on the

Dudes and/or Dudettes: HEEELLLPPP! (such a newbie statement) I can't get my remote SMB mounts to work on my Linux box. duke was happily running Slackware Linux 2.0.36 and Samba 1.9.18p8 . I upgraded to Linux 2.2.0pre9 (2.2.0final), which seemed to require upgrading to Samba 2.0.0 . (I don't remember the exact errors) Now i can't get my NT and '95 disks to stay mounted on
