[SuSE Linux] Threaded programming in SuSE?

[SuSE Linux] "2 filesystems single /" error on trying to reinstall SuSE
by geichner＠cyberia.com 05 Mar '99

05 Mar '99

Friend's new machine came with: AMD k6-2 3??MHz cpu Gigabyte motherboard (GA-5X ??) 8.4 gb hdd (eide) Matrox G200 AGP 128MB RAM ... Machine came with Win 98 installed a 4.2gb partition, leaving other half available for Linux. I installed SuSE 5.3 on the last half, hda2 / 4+ gb hda3 swapfile - 127MB Set to boot from floppy. It worked fine except I didn't have the appropriate X-server, so I was waiting before setting up the X Window system and KDE. Turned out lots of lockups with the Matrox G200 AGP card and the ALI chipset on this Gigabyte motherboard. Vendor was good about swapping the video card out for a... Diamond Multimedia Speedstar 8MB AGP card (DVD capability under Win 9x) I decided to "overinstall" 6.0 over 5.3, since it has the newest X-servers, one of which (SVGA??) would hopefully handle the Diamond video card, and I wanted to add any new KDE stuff (a clean install seemed "safer" than an update). I deleted the two linux partitions, and then created them in reverse order, (seemed the only way to convince SuSE's fdisk, that I wanted a new, clean install), I then went to set up the mount points and behold, I got an error message after assigning the large partition to / . I don't have the error msg in front of me, but it was something on the order of... "You can't have a single root directory, if you have 2 different filesystems." The win98 fs is vfat, btw. This error comes up whether I try to mount the win98 partition (hda1) as /mnt/win98, or leave it totally unmounted. When asked to choose a filetype (DOS, vfat, or UMSDOS) I chose vfat, because that's what it is. I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what. I've searched the SuSE database (and read the <1024 cyl info) and searched the installation troubleshooting portion of the SuSE 6.0 text, but I missed any useful info on this topic if it was there. The toughest thing for me to understand is why I was able to install SuSE 5.3 and boot from a floppy, and now I'm not able to. I don't think I touched the MBR before, and Win98 is running fine. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Also, anyone able to comment on the Diamond (multimedia) Speedstart 8MB agp card and server support under X. Thanks.

[SuSE Linux] char-major-4 etc
by mjackson＠deskmedia.com 05 Mar '99

05 Mar '99

Hello all, My char-major-4 problem, I found, could be fixed in two ways: 1) Compile serial as a module 2) alias char-major-4 off in conf.modules. My ttyp5 problem went away mysteriously. I _SUSPECT_ it has to do with xconsole, and lsof wouldn't work for me because I'm running kernel 2.2.1.

[SuSE Linux] Maximum mount count?
by yatsen-ng＠cistron.nl 05 Mar '99

05 Mar '99

The last time I booted I got the following message: /dev/hdc1 has reached maximum mount count, check forced. What the hell does that mean? I never heard of a "maximum mount count" before. Is there such a thing as a maximum amount of times you can boot your system? After a short while the boot sequence continued normally. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archive at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
