Auditconfig should work on both of those anyway.

Hi all,
I have been able to install linux 7.2 on my PC.
But I face the following problems.
1. With boot time I don't see window OS option, the only option which appear is a line "Red Hat linux (2.4.7-10).
What have I missed during installation and how I can solve this problem.
2. My keyboard doesn't match what I type e.g. if I want to type "/", instead "&" appears. Where and how to correct keyboard settings?
3. I am using DHCP server for internet connection and during "Network configuration" process I clicked the check boxes "Configure using DHCP" and "Activate on boot".
It does not work either. How to solve this.
These are the problems I am facing right now, more may apprea on the way.
I am sorry if these questions sound you very basic.
thanks
regards

Hi again,
I forgot one more question.
If because of some reason I need to uninstall Linux and go back to my previous WinXP OS, how to do that?

If you have two partitions on your hard drive, the install should of gave you the option to choose which partition to install on (it's been awhile since I'v done it so it may have changed). I'v always used partition magic to set up my partitions with out losing Windows partition. Check out the linux documentation project website for more info. Look for the lilo documentation. You can edit the lilo.conf and configure it to give you options of what partition to boot.

I'm not sure about this as I have had no problems there but the linux documentation project site can help you there.

Are you using a lan or a dialup connection?
To uninstall linux from your second partition use partition magic to do that. Simply delete the linux partition and resize the windows to partition to use all available disk space. It's the only way I know of to do that without losing your windows partition other than the slow complete backup of your hard drive.
Sorry I couldn't help you any more - It's been awhile since I have done the install but I always fall back on the documentation project site most of the time. The Linux Documentation Site is located at http://www.tldp.org/

Hi Jay,
Thanks for reply.
1. I have only only one disk drive i.e. C: with 30 GB and I chose automatic partition and followed the instruction given in redHat book and hoped all should be done automatically. I didn't use Lilo rather used GRUB.
Further, what is partition magic? I didn't encounter this during my installation process. Is it some tool to run during installation, how and when to run? Is it late for me to run this tool?
Now how I can solve my problem of dual boot when I have installed linux with only disk driver?
2. I am not using dial-up connection rather I connect to a server via Breadband.
3. May be it would be better for me to uninstall linux and restart the process again.
How magic would help me in this regard?
thanks in advance
regards

Partition Magic is a commercial program that can resize and move partitions without destroying the data on them. It's not part of Red Hat Linux or Windows. Exactly what installation options did you choose (Server, Workstation or Custom)?
GRUB configuration is changed by editing the /boot/grub/grub.conf file.
You can change the keyboard settings by running the "setup" program (from the command line as root) and choosing "keyboard configuration".

Hi rsasalm_,
As I understand from your post, you've installed linux and now cannot get Windows to boot up. (correct me if I'm wrong)
That happens a lot. What happened is that RedHat for some reason did not recognise the Windows partition and didn't add it to the Boot Manager (in your case GRUB).
Because it's new installation I would suggest you to completely delete the linux partition and reinstall it again.
How to do that? I think the easiest way would be to make a boot floppy form a windows 95/98 machine. When you've done that, copy a file utitlity called fdisk.exe (can't remember where it is located, but surely do a search of your C:\Windows directory)
When booting using floppy disks run FDISK. It should give you a list of partitions. Delete the *secondary* partition, remember primary partition is used by WinXP.
If you are going to reinstall linux, my suggestion would be to use lilo as boot loader. I had few problems using GRUB, so I don't use it anymore.
About the DHCP server thing.
You will not be able to use your BroadBand without configuring it first. I don't know how it's done in redhat, but you can use /sbin/yast2 in SuSE linux to do it very easliy.
I don't know anyother way of "uninstalling" linux, except to delete partition as described above.
I hope this helps a little...
Venet.

Sorry in advance if you think my wonderings are very basic.
1. How to make a boot floppy and further from the machine I have linux now running has winXP and win 95/98?
I have another machine where win95 is running and after search I found that it has fdisk under catalogue
c:\windows\command
Should all this be done on linux promt and how to access floppy disks in linux to run fdisk.exe etc?
In short I find difficult to understant the above paragraph.
Would you please, Venet, clarify little bit detailed steps needed to uninstall linux.
thanks again
regards

Hi all,
I found a boot disk followed with win 95 kit.
With the help of this I have been able to remove linux Boot manager i.e. command "fdisk /mbr" worked.
Efter that I re-installed winXP and this time instead of having only one disk drive "C:" I configured the hard disk to two disk drive "C" (20 GB) and "D" (18 GB).
Now my win Xp works fine  and I am standing where I started to install Linux except the difference that now I have two hard drives instead of one.
Now I want to install Linux again.
Any suggestions besides those written in the previous mail so that I don't run into the same problems I have had.
Note: I don't have access to "partition magic" or such tool.
Thanks for help

Linux doesn't install on Windows partitions (what you call "drives" in your message), so the first thing to do is to delete your D: partition to make space for Linux (hope you didn't store anything important there yet). Next, read the Red Hat Installation Guide. During the installation, don't just click "OK" at every prompt, but read the help texts (in the left panel) and choose the correct options for your system. Don't use "Server" installation option, that will remove the existing Windows installation from your machine!

I compiled a program with Visual C++ under WindowsXP, which contains a cyrillic menu. After that when i started this program under Windows98/ME, the menu items was replaced with:______. I tryed to change the project's resource settings, Windows regional settings, but the problem is still pending. WindowsXP allows to the user easy to add new code page, but how does it done in Windows98/ME?

I dunno if anyone actually reads this message board but here goes.
I have 'web content' enabled for my folders in windows explorer so that I can see a preview of pictures and video to the left of the folder contents. The past few days explorer has been crashing when I click on a video file. It shows the preview fine but when i click on another one *BOOM* it crashes with a "The memory could not be written" error. I've rebooted several times, tried it with *NO* other apps running, and even downgraded the media player.
Any ideas?!

Naaah, everybody just write a random question here and then never looks back.
For your question you would have to state what kind of video file(s) you are looking at: WMx (whatever 'x' was - Windows Media "something"), MPG, MP4, RM or AVI (and whatever I forgot), and in case of AVI you'd have to tell at least what video codec was used. My guess is you're looking at AVI's compressed with a not-really-functioning codec, or maybe flash, but without any further information one could answer "42" and it would be correct.

You know how in Unix you can send an e-mail message using command line, somewhat like this:
>mail me@hotmail.com “Hello”
Does Windows 2000 (the OS itself, not 3rd party products) provide similar functionality ?
Thanks,
Serge
