RE: [SLE] pygtk sources?
If you are using YaST, when you select a package to install and want the source as well, press F6. It saves alot of time looking through the 'zq' series. Tim

Hi, people.
I noticed that with SuSE 6.2, if there is a `pygtk-0.6.1-12' package on the CD-ROMs, there is no `pygtk' in the `zq' series. Should I find it under some other name? I thought the correspondence was straightforward.

I've got a 40GB Maxtor UDMA/66 drive that I'm trying to configure with SuSE 6.3 and am not having any success. That maxtor utility is braindead and creates 1 primary partition and everything else is extended. Ranish's partition manager isn't working right either, and hopelessly confuses SuSE's install if I try and do the partitions before. If I don't partition it before hand, SuSE then thinks the drive has 1094 cylinders instead of 5194. Arrgh. Any ideas. Do I need to wait for Suse 6.4? This is what I'd like to do: 1 GB / 4 GB win98 8 GB solaris 128 MB swap 128 MB swap 8 GB /usr 2 GB /opt 8 GB /home 4 GB NT <rest> FAT 32 Any suggestions appreciated.

Boot into single user mode of the 2nd CD-ROM of SuSE Linux 6.3 (First CD-ROM
for SuSE 6.2 Linux and below). After you get the system booted from the
CD-ROM and are in a root shell `fdisk` it there, cut it up, make any file
systems you can (ie. ext2), reboot. Cut it up exactly the way you want,
then don't let any other thing mess with it (this includes SuSE and
Solaris).
Does you BIOS support a 40 gig drive? Does it see it correctly in the CMOS?

No, that's not your problem.
This is what I'd like to do:

It's not easy to manage 4 OS on one disk. I have only experience with 3 OS (NT,98,SuSE 6.3) on one disk. First I think you want to use Linux-fdisk and never another fdisk, because of heavy problems. Then you need to tell your BIOS you want LBA-Addressing for your disk (and don't change it, some OS can get trouble). And third you want to manage your OS's with LILO-Bootmanager. Every OS which use the BIOS to find his bootsector must have his boot-files under the 1024-cylinder (=> 8 GB) NT will not start. Why do you want to use two 128 MB SWAP-Partitions ? You will get a little bit more performance, when you make a partition (for example 256 MB) as the first primary partition. Then a small 10 MB /boot partition for Linux. And Then 3 GB FAT 32 for Win98 and 3 GB for Winnt and then a partition for Solaris (first 1,5 GB, you can make later more slices when you use it) Example, without guarentee: MBR (LILO and Partition table in it) 256MB primary SWAP(you can share it for all OS,which could useit) 10 MB primary /boot (Linux-Kernel) 3 GB primary ( WIN98 FAT32) REST extended (logical partitions in it) 3 GB first logical (WINNT NTFS) 1,6 GB second logical (Solaris) 2 GB root (SuSE) ..... REST (one FAT partition, which can be used for data, which every OS can read and write (don't know if Solaris can it)) Install in this sequence: Win98 WinNT Solaris SuSE and to the and /sbin/lilo with a well-styled /etc/lilo.conf could make you happy. There's a new version of LILO which supports > 1024 cylinder-booting, but I have not tested it yet. Have fun :-) and a good bootdisk --> Tom's Linuxrescuedisk -- MfG Waldemar Brodkorb Linux rulez! -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
I've forgotten something, don't forget to use Kernel 2.2.14 to be sure you can use the complete 40 GB! -- MfG Waldemar Brodkorb Linux rulez! -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
