On Sat, 26 Apr 2003, Tom just had to get this off his chest:
I tried sending this Friday night, but found this morning it kicked back to me because it was too large of an email.
I'm glad I supply my own server.
I had dependency problems all over the place. Rather than explain everything, here's my boot log. I'm sure in a heartbeat you'll see the problem. I can see it, I just don't know how to fix it.
To be honest, no, I don't see the problem. If you mean the *.rpmnew and *.rpmsave files; look at them, and if there no longer used delete them.
*********had to cut everything else out because the email was too large for the server. If you want, I can send as attachment.************
$ la -h /var/log/boot.msg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 25K Apr 26 10:55 /var/log/boot.msg 25k is too large to send in an email through your ISP? What kind of anal service is that?
(This is where things start to get bad...)
Please check the following files (see /var/adm/rpmconfigcheck): [..]
Nothing bad here, just a warning.

It didn't find a joystick.

Done, besides some minor issues no problems.
Maybe I should have had 3 Long Islands??? Right now I'm using fvwm window manager. Any help would be great! If I wanted to do a fresh install, but still keep my /home/tom files in tact, how can I do it? I'd like to clean this computer up.
Maybe you should start telling what the fsck the problem is. Btw: please trim your lines to 72 <= chars <=78 Theo -- Theo v. Werkhoven Registered Linux user# 99872 http://counter.li.org ICBM 52 13 27N , 4 29 45E. SuSE 8.2 x86 Kernel k_Athlon 2.4.20-4GB See headers for PGP/GPG info.
