Hi, On our samba server (3.0.22-SuSE93) we have many printers installed with cups. Most of them are RAW queues to use within Windows. A few of them however, are filtered queues for Linux to use. I would like to EXCLUDE the filtered queues so Windows users cannot use them, but am not sure how to do this within the smb.conf. Thanks in advance for any assistance, -- Rory Vieira rory dot vieira at

Hi, What is the latest version of Samba for SuSE 9.0, and where can I find it. Shame support was dropped for this one... still being used a lot... -- Rory Vieira rory dot vieira at gmail dot com

Hi, I'm using Syslinux 3.11 on a 1Gb USB Stick. The stick has 1 partition in FAT16. I'm experimenting with initramfs stuff, and just built a small tree (round 2.2M). I just inserted the kernel modules into that tree, and it became pretty large, with a resulting bzImage of 16.2Mb!!! When I try to start that kernel, I get an error: Invalid or corrupt kernel image. Any idea's on this?

Hi, I subscribed just to get this solved :) I'm using the latest Samba i.c.w. CUPS. For some reason all prints that are finished are still in the printer queue seen from windows. However, going to the CUPS queue on port 631, its' all clear... Any idea's on how to solve this tiny matter??? Cheers, -- Rory Vieira rory dot vieira at gmail dot com

Hi, One of my customers is running a pretty old Redhat 8 (Psyche) server with Samba 2.2.something (I think 7). Next week I'm planned to upgrade his Redhat platform to SuSE 9.3 and also update his samba to 3.0.23b. My biggest worry is that this customer has about 14 workstations already in the 2.2.x domain. I would like to know WHAT to do so I won't have to re-add all those machines

hi Peter, everyone, I recently installed extlinux on my CF drive. after a few botches, it works, with menu.c32 too. Heres a few notes/observations: - menuing seems pretty sensitive to presence of tabs in extlinux.conf, unlike with pxelinux.cfg/default, Is this an oversight, or something Im misremembering ? - extlinux doesnt have the timeout after menu-choice. if I dont choose, it times out and

Hello-- I'm trying to use extlinux to make a bootable disk image, but I've hit a wall. I've got a partitioned hard disk image with one ext2 partition in it. I've mounted the partition through a block loopback device (/dev/loop1 on the host) and chrooted into it in order to run extlinux. Within the chroot environment, /etc/mtab says: /dev/hda1 / ext2 rw 0 0 ...and within the

Hello all, I am trying to replace grub with extlinux without any luck. I did remove the grub from my root Partition and boot from a LiveCD. I install syslinux and did those steps Boot Partition: mkdir -pv /mnt/sda1 mke2fs -jv /dev/hda1 mkfs -t ext3 /dev/hda1 mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/sda1 Root Partition export SDB1=/mnt/sdb1 mkdir -pv $SDB1

Hi! Can extlinux boot Linux kernel from the second drive? I want to leave Windows XP on the first IDE drive and put Linux to the first partition (ext2/ext3) on the second IDE drive. I am allowed to change MBR on the first drive. Will the following configuration work? /dev/hda1 - Windows /dev/hdb1 - Linux root (/, /boot, ...) /dev/hda - extlinux in MBR /boot/vmlinuz extlinux /boot

OK, been perusing the archives and Google, but can't find what I want. I'm building up a 512 MB compact flash using the CLFS directions to build the filesystem. That works great, but I would like to use extlinux to make the cflash bootable on my little SBC. However, to date, no dice. Attached is my extlinux.conf file and the steps I have used to make this work. Initially I tried to

Hi I just tried to implement gpt extlinux booting in my archboot project. extlinux installs fine but i'm not able to boot the hd afterwards. Setting partition to boot on in parted doesn't seem to have an effect in GPT mode. Is there any way to get it booting, i haven't found any docu about it.

Hi: I've been seeing intermittent build failures with the extlinux target, and I believe I've tracked it down to a VPATH issue. See this make -d log: Finished prerequisites of target file `extlinux'. Prerequisite `extlinux.o' is newer than target `extlinux'. Prerequisite `setadv.o' is newer than target `extlinux'. Prerequisite

When I try to boot my system using extlinux I get the error: EXTLINUX 3.51 2007-06-10 EBIOS Copyright (C) 1994-2007 H. Peter Anvin Could not find kernel image: linux boot: ???????????????????????????????? I've searched the archives and it would appear that extlinux can't find the extlinux.conf file.... Is there something glaring that I am missing? TIA - Phil I have a 32MB CF card

Hello, We are experiencing a strange behaviour on an embedded system (i386 PC board). The structure of our disk is the following one : - A 2GB fat16 partition with DOS and syslinux - A 100GB Ext4 partition with Extlinux an several linux images to boot on ram - A swap partition The system boot on syslinux to choose among Dos and Linux boot using chain. When Linux is chosen, syslinux chains to
