(repost: corrected URL) Nice "rescue CD:s": (Handle lot of filesystems for both MSWin and Linux) http://www.sysresccd.org I have used this to repartition (even NTFS) using the graphical tool qtpa= rted, backup partitions (also to windows share on LAN) using partimage. = Really awesone. Read the pdf. Nice to play with if you want to learn Li= nux command line. Also have a "Norton Commander Clone" Midnight Commande= r.. and some other tools. For an old dos user this really feels like DOS= reloaded and heavily upgraded to say the least. Mount network shares, t= hen browse all computers in Midnight commander... Don=B4t forget as you = on Linux have 6 consoles selectable by Ctrl-Alt-F1..F6. Very handy, as y= ou can have MC on one console, read man pages on one, etc. Man pages are= manuals; for terse info on command, type at prompt "man command" + Enter= . For short info type "command --help". Another tip: Create user named "root" on the windows machine(s) you want = to network with (you run this cd as root) Another tip: type menu directly at boot to select graphic mode, keyboard,= and if enough ram, load CD image to RAM so it work more quickly. http://www.trinityhome.org can change NT passwords ...and never forget google to look things up! Seem to find lot of answer= s in discussion groups. /Morgan - Yet another Linux newbie=20 _______________________________________________ http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
