Welcome to (IMHO [in my humble opinion]) to the best e-mail/user group I've found. I'm a Linux newbie with about a years experience. I've learned more here since late Feb/early March than anytime previously. Generally, there's no-one in here with super ego/antisocial attitudes. If you have a question that doesn't get answered repost (might try a litte different header also) and chance are someone will help. This group is concerned with helping all levels of users. There are SuSE staff that are float in and out of the list, they don't moderate but are here to answer questions in their spare time. There are also many other pro's that will help you solve problems and fine tune systems. Cheers and mail the group the stuff that Steven asked for so we'll have a better idea of what your working with. Curtis Rey On Sunday 03 June 2001 02:04 pm, sunbeams wrote:
hi, I installed linux 7.1 on to a new, second hard disk, several weeks ago. I was able to boot to linux using a floppy disk with no problems, but then had problems with my bios which I had sorted out professionally - a jumper had detached itself (!) from the motherboard and the bios was resetting to defaults (including the time and date) every time I switched on. It now boots to windows, but when I try to start linux the process gets stuck at 'setting up CMOS clock'. How do I get it to boot? I am relatively new to computers and brand new to linux. Thanks.
