I disagree about the "programmers who love optimizing code are few and far between".
OpenBSD folks are fanatical about security AND optimizing. I know NetBSD also tries to reduce code bloat, I remember reading a comment where they proclaimed that they had added new features while cutting overall lines of code.
Ice:
You da man. Thanks to you and the original poster, my installation has now started working.
Something good came out of reading slashdot comments for a change:-)
Just won't go into the Symatec Ghost boot console maybe because of the inbuilt Intel Gigabit adapter? It just hangs while loading ghost.exe, do I have to pass in any special switches to ghost.exe?
Thanks
I am thinking of using old computers with 128Mb in our school which are upgraded once every 3-5 years for this concept in everyday open source applications.
But Grid Iron Software hasn't yet replied to my email.
Sigh, anyway I will try again next week, and if they dont bother with it I will try some other outfit.
Why do they need a newer gcc to compile 64 bit code? The current ones dont do that now eh?
I am waiting till next year to assemble myself a nice 2+ Ghz AMD64 machine.
I wanted a tool for checking File system integrity on a Windoze 2000 network, maybe AIDE with Cygwin will do the trick? Please modify your comment on insecure.org to include that Windoze with Cygwin is also supported.
Because the ad does not report your surfing habits and is generally innocuous.
Bullshit, Opera directs me to ad.doubleclick.net and some shit ad servers, phoenix/Mozilla/IE doesn't do it. IE of course uploads your index.dat's to M$.
I ripped out IE by using this utility http://www.litepc.com/ier_lic.html
But I am now moving to FreeBSD 5.0, and Konqueror.
I agree with the FreeBSD principle. I started with NetBSD because FreeBSD had a bug for my setup about 1-2 years back. It couldn't handle a Master-slave HDD relationship, used to freeze with "Probing devices please wait" on a i386.
And I find FreeBSD's documentation to be the best amongst the three.
Yeah, Intel is gonna pay for their radical approach.
Btw, NetBSD has had x86-64 some time back. Free is just catching up, it seems.
I like both, just never used Open.

Clustra has been renamed to HADB, and they are working on it. Search Sun's India jobs section, and you will see a ton of jobs are for HADB.
you can use IEradicator from litepc.com to strip out IE and reinstall the version you want...
I am just curious to know if it is possible for you guys to reduce the "from-scratch" build time to 1-2 days?
Thanks

This should read as FreeBSD in the FreeBSD section..

As for NetBSD, I plotted the graphs for 4.9 against the graphs for 5.1-CURRENT. Here are the results:
You might want to point your lab admin to

Yeah, I agree :)
Seriously, I wish more people would consider using Open source. In the lab where I work, I have managed a few converts.
Thanks for the heads up!
Is their product in C or Java?

Of course you can delete IE *completely* using this free utility, it doesn't work for SP2 and above on Windows 2000.

What's the point of doing IRIX compat anyway? Not many IRIX users, and is it useful?
Good luck. I had difficulty installing 1.6, when my installation crapped out with a Segmentation fault, 1.5 was more stable...
