Hello everyone, I''ve managed to configure and start Remus. However, it works only while the protected server is not loaded. As soon as I start a memory-intensive server application, the stream of Remus messages stops, leaving me with an error message. I think the message is not always the same, but here is what I''ve got from the last run: PROF: suspending at

I am trying to mount a FAT32 partition in CentOS. I'm following the instructions on this page: http://www.linuxforum.com/linux_tutorials/14/1.php This is the line I put into /etc/fstab /dev/hda /mnt/windows vfat users,owner,rw,umask=000 0 0 And this is the error I get: [root at localhost mnt]# mount -a mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on

I know syslinux supports FAT16 and works very well, but how about FAT32? Does syslinux support FAT32? If so, which version? eg., 3.11 and above Thanks!

When trying to installing Syslinux on a FAT32 drive formatted using Ridgecrop's Large FAT32 formatting tool [1], the installer will bail due to the minfatsize check, as there is an extra sector being used. This fix addresses that. [1] http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?fat32format.htm -------------- next part --------------

Sorry for the late response. I am set to digest on this list. One of my chief complaints about mailman (besides non-searchable archives), is that you can either get every message or digest, but not "digest except for threads to which I have responded for which I want every message directly". > The command line installers have the core module and the bootloader file, all embedded

hello, I plan to use rsync for backing up my data to a FAT32 USB disk. I'm running the last Mandriva linux 2006 and my filesystem is ext8 using UFT-8 charset. I run into a problem with some of my folders that have full caps names on the ext3 disk (/home/foo/BAR/ for example). When rsync creates the folder on the USB disk, it doesn't create /home/foo/BAR/ but /home/foo/bar/. And then

My problem is that whenever I try to copy a large file from a client machine to a fat32 partition (ext3 works fine) mounted under samba, the host linux machine will lock up completely. I can, however, copy small files to the fat32 partition just fine (ie. 1 KB to 1 MB size file), it's only when I copy files that are about 200 MB and larger, that the computer will lockup. NAT still

Hi, I have a problem backing up my music collection, that is stored on a fat32 formated hard drive to my ext3 formated backup drive (ext3 to ext3 works like a charm :) ). The problem is, that rsync always transfers all of the files and not only the one that were changed/added. I know of the limitations fat32 has but I can't find the correct options to run the backup. Thanks Thomas

Hi, I have been using rsync for over ten years. Thank you! It is a great tool. Recently I had the misfortune to have to use it to sync files to a USB stick that is for a platform that only supports FAT32. After missing the point a few times and having it copy some of the same directories and files needlessly I saw the timestamps on the source files (in reasonable filesystems like JFS, XFS,

Hi, I am not an engineer or linux expert but I have been using syslinux to boot live disk filesets (extracted from iso's) residing on fat32 and NTFS volumes. In FAT32 there has been no problem going with larger cluster sizes up to the nominal maximum of 64K however, with NTFS it has not been possible to exceed the cluster size of 4096. With NTFS formatted using clusters of 8192 or larger,

Hello all, since we are sitated in Serbia and Montenegro and Linux, VoIP, Open Source and ECONOMY here are in the diapers. We are traying to start "Asterisk implementation project" and make it available to small people (in small companies,hotels,homes etc).

Hi... I decided to delete my fat32 partition (sda1, with win2k on it). I did that with fdisk and added a linux partition, then formated it with "mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda1" ... Everything seemed to work fine... I can even mount it with "mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt" ... but there seem to be some fat32 rubbish left because when I do "mount /dev/sda1 /mnt" it seems to

Hi Syslinuxers, I am trying to understand the basic load chain in fat32 and ext4. I dug into the assembly for MBR, which is pretty straightforward: 1. Find boot partition (or use the pre-defined one at byte 440 for altmbr.bin) 2. Load the first 512-byte sector of the partition (VBR for fat32, Block Group 0 padding for ext). 3. Execute that code The code that is loaded, however, has to be too

Thanks for the response, Gene. Much appreciated. I didn't get all of it; mind if I follow on below? ldlinux.sys is ldlinux.bin without the VBR (Volume Boot Record) code. > Makes sense. > > 1.

> You might want to read Wikipedia's articles about "FAT32" and "Design of the FAT file system", Good pointer. I spent far far too long on that page figuring out how fat32 is designed. But the reserved sectors, there is the key. > reserved sectors Right! Immediately after the FSIS before the FAT.And it usually is 32 sectors for fat32. Take off the VBR and the FSIS,

Hi Ady, I won't comment on the reasons why the original computation was wrong, but thanks for the detailed analysis.

I am trying to rsync some files from ext3 to fat32 pen drive. What is the correct way to do this? I am currently using, --progress -av --no-o --no-g --exclude '*iso' /ext3 /fat32 Are there any other options I should consider? TIA

Hi, The following are my steps: 1. Insert a FAT32 format HDD into usb port of Linux PC. 2. After HDD mounted successfully, configure and start samba to share the HDD. 3. Using Map Network Drive of Windows XP to map the HDD to a windows network drive. 4.Open the mapped network drive, can see "NTFS" file system on the left details. It shows the wrong info, could anybody help me? Thanks
