Linux first-timer. I just installed Fedora Core 2 to a new second HDD; the first is run by WinXP. Now when I start the computer it doesn't boot anything. Instead, it gives the follwing message: GRUB Hard Disk Error.

Installing apt-get RPM on Fedora Core 2

Dapper Dan

Apt-get RPM is based on the same principle as apt-get for Debian, in that it works out all the depenencies for you when installing packages. To install apt-get on Fedora core 2, download and. As root, cd to the directory where you downloaded these two RPMs and go: rpm -Uvh apt-0.

I'm stalling from the boot cd, and yes i follow the instructions and the page that you gave me but I got that problem. I'm moving the partitions like Dapper Dan told me right know. What program do you recommend to me for burn the isos? I don't want to screw more cds again.

I found this site and am making a book of commands. I highlight just the necessary stuff and paste it to a blank office document. Then I am going to print each one, punch holes in 'em (I have a 3 hole punch) and put them in a binder alphabetically.

I just installed Suse 9. 1 Professional on this laptop, only to discover there is a huge 2 inch black margin around the desktop image. I have found out there is no fix for this, and the makers of the screen will not support Linux.

was checking out a site by photographer Abelardo Morell and was blown away by a series of pictures he made by blacking out all his windows except for a small pinhole then using a large flat film camera and a 8hours+ exposure.

Skipstone or Firefox ?

danleff

I have this old CTX notebook with 64 nb ram and a 200 mx processor. Libranet and Vector Linux have brought it back to life. Currently I am running IceWM as the desktop. Being a Puppy Linux follower, Barry (the mantainer) has used Skipstone and more recently, Firefox as the browser.

International Cost-of-Living Calculator

clutch

We deal with items and personnel from multiple countries, and I was wondering if someone knew of a good cost-of-living calculator (and possibly salary charts) for the UK, Germany, and Italy. It would be nice to understand what typical salaries are and how they translate to the US market.
