I fit them all! I guess I'll have to give up my mass-murdering future though, I'm a pacifist. Darn, and things were looking so good. Back to programming I guess.
I wouldn't say from my experience that Linux uses hardware more intensely than win, but whatever. The mount issue: your problem is getting the correct device. Just make sure you're attempting to mount an existing device. These appear on bootup and can be viewed via dmesg.
Good Question. I am relatively unsure about the TCP stacks also. However, they can somewhat say that since well, all other stacks are essentially BSD derived:) But yet again, there are _many_ examples of high-yield TCP stack usage. One word: Beowulf. feel free to click on my link or go to www.beowulf.org.
I believe that you are the one smoking the crack. The OpenBSD and NetBSD installers are the most difficult installers that I have ever used. And the only major OS that I haven't installed personally is BeOS. (win*, NT, DOS, tons of linux distros, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, blah). And jeeze, I'm a kid, I'm supposed to be able to pick this stuff up easily. The OpenBSD installer had mad problems reading it's own MBR after "dangerously committing". I had to format the drive again to fix the MBR, for it to finally recognize it. And I'm not even going to go on about the drive auto-detection problems.
I just work here...:P I agree. this whole thing is rather rediculous. Domain names really mean this much? It's rather silly if you think about it. Nobody cares if you name your kid barbie, but certainly if you name your computer such a heavily protected name(or a section of Ireland McDonalds), it is quite illegal. Why not just create a seperate DNS system with only a slight modification, with say an extra bit set? Donno... something I've been mulling over personally for a little while. Wonder what other geeks think:)
Now all I have to do is convince Russ, a mac fiend to partition out some space. But perhaps I can find other people with these to put it on their computer, like my mentee:) But Linux can find it's way into the discussion again in the Computer Repair Lab(macos doesn't boot? Try booting off that Linux CD) But I'd like to see the performance difference up and close(and wonder where the LinuxPPC version uses the Apple BIOS)... But nonetheless, yet more options for those poor new frosh people(I'm in NE)
It's funny how we wish to help eachother have more fufilling and happy lives(supposedly what safty brings) by reducing ourselves to statistics - numbers. I am currently in highschool and I'm sure I would fall under the catagories, as I am extremely strange, don't communicate much with the "normal" crowd(when I do get out of my room). Yes, I'm a bit antisocial, but I'm also a pacifist,and a humanist. I've had enough of labelling and whatnot; I still get flak from that other school incedent. Last week a girl even asked me if I was going to kill everyone at our school in English class, with all sincerity. Perhaps this will only serve to aggrivate the problem and allow those using this to ignore those who are truly crying for help.
