Re: [suse-ham-e] Formatting a HDD Under Linux

Doc, See the HowTo at http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/DOS-Win-to-Linux-HOWTO.html for the formatting info. However, since there is not (that I know of ) an equivalent to the /s my opinion is to just reinstall SuSE 8.0 from the CDs and let it repartition/format the disk for you. Even in Windows you have to reinstall most of the OS from the CD since /s only makes the disk bootable. Only in the "good ole days" of DOS did /s do something really useful! Hope this helps. 73, Robert WB4DHC/DL4GRC Friedrichshafen Germany On Fri, 13 Sep 2002 20:12:02 -0400 doc <kd4e(a)arrl.net> wrote: > I cannot recall how to do the DOS equivalent of > formatting > a hard disk drive. > > I have sold an older PC with SuSE 8.0 and need > to do the > equivalent of a "format /s c:" to get my stuff > off it and to provide > him with a clean start. > > Thanks! doc > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > suse-ham-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com > For additional commands, e-mail: > suse-ham-e-help(a)suse.com > >

Hi I was wondering is there an other hams out there using kernel 2.4.19 with all the drivers compile in for the ham stuff etc as it seems the kernel 2.4.16 i am using keeps locking up after some time on and i hear there was suppose to be an fix for some things and this could be the reason for my lockups i dont have an config file for the 2.4.16 kernel as i put this one on by the rpm that was at suse site so i am not sure in all i need compile in i would need everything that is compile into the 2.4.16 now to have all that i have working so any ideas how i can do this without messing things up thanks Bob

WLAN6060SD WLAN Secure Digital Card
by doc 09 Sep '02

This might solve the challenge of how to readily get the images from the Z's CF card camera out to a network real-time. For other circumstances I suppose serial to cellphone or serial to Amateur radio ATV/SSTV interface to a radio would get the job done. doc http://216.239.37.100/search?q=cache:mE0R6b7hICAC:www.sychip.com/PUB/WLAN606 0SD5.pdf+secure+digital+nic&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

Re: Re[2]: [hamz] Aux serial port CF card
by doc 08 Sep '02

Guess I will have to make my own cable. No way will I permit a poorly designed cable from Sharp to force me to abandon my serial port and sacrifice my cf port to replace it! Might it be possible to shave some excess rubber off the Sharp cable to create room for the keyboard to open? Anyone aware of a source of the connector? Or it is proprietary? 73, doc kd4e > Problem is that the Sharp serial cable for the SL5500 covers the whole > bottom end of the Z so you can't open it to use the keyboard.
