Associating Shell Scripts In Nautilus/gnome in FC2

ddefig

The usual newbie disclaimer. . . . . Using Nautilus under Gnome I somehow ended up permanently associating shell scripts (MIME type application/x-shellscript) with gedit. No big deal - I deleted the association - but now I cannot get the script to execute.

How to log into Mandrake as ROOT ?

SonyBoy

Hi, I'm a beginner with Linux and I would like to change the permissions of some folders (on another partition) to make them writable (change to 777). The only way to do it is to log as ROOT if I understand correctly.

Fedora CD won't boot

Trizik

I'm totally new to Linux, but ready to give it a try. My other computer is currently running WinXP but I'm hoping to replace it with Fedora. So, I downloaded all four ISOs of Fedora Core 2, burned their images onto four CDs, and tried booting off Disk 1.

Tried everything I can think of. Need to load windows after Mandrake 10

Broadband

I have read similar posts but anything suggested in them didn't work for me. I loaded Mandrake 10 on a new PC a while back. I now want to run windows on it but try as I might, I can rid the hard drive of the MBR.

Linux on a Removable Drive

smax

I'm new to the Linux world, so bear with me. I'm running a laptop with a removable bay that I plan on putting a hard drive into to dual boot Linux from. I know that GRUB config files are loaded onto the Linux disk, and if I remove the drive, then the computer won't boot correctly.
