I need to know to to make a smaller .img file. I want to put ubuntu on my android phone (androlinux.com), but the ubuntu.zip file was to big to fit on my sd card. The .img file is too large, so I want to make a slightly smaller .img file to fit on the sd card.
View 2 RepliesI having been searching for a way to create an empty or blank iso file, so that I can mount it, and have a backup application think it's a blank CD. I am tired of wasting CD's by having the application write a recovery CD, just for me to turn around and export it to an iso image to be stored in a online archive, and then throw away the physical CD.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAs mentioned here I am planning on installing with encryption. This involves using LVM in the partition scheme.
I am following this guide here which uses Mandriva to do the installation. [url]
However, I notice that GParted doesn't seem to have any support for LVM, which is going to be a pain in the rear if I subsequently try to add Ubuntu to the Mandriva boot setup.
The problem I have with DiskDrake (Mandrivas partition editor) is that it only seems to be able to put partitions at the beginning of the drive and it doesn't seem to be able to move partitions. e.g. if I want to create a new partition at the end for swap and leave some unallocated space in the middle for my future Ubuntu installation I am stuck. GParted allows me to create at the end or effectively move it by resizing the beginning and end of the partition.
DiskDrake allows me to create and edit LVM partitions.
Is there perhaps another partition editor that does both? Or maybe a development version of one that does it? Or some option I am missing?

I was just testing specifying limit on file size to a user and have added the following to /etc/security/limits.conf bob soft fsize 100 This basically should have said not to allow bob to create anyfile greater than 100Kb in size.
But the interesting thing is, if bob already has any file which is greater than 100Kb in size, it even doesn't allow to log him into the system both from console and SSH. Also nothing is logged in logs.. How do I configure it so that, bob can login to the system even though he has any file greater than 100Kb (but doesn't allow him to create file which are greater than 100Kb) ??

Everything in Linux is a file, right? And everything can be represented by a file? Is there some way I could create a block device file that represents (i.e., provides an interface to) this image file? If so, then I could use fdisk on the device file to split it into partitions, format the partitions, and then mount them as directories. I could create a file system within a file system, which would be fun.

I installed F-Prot for linux & when I try to do a scan it complains it "can't stat a file" it seems to want to create & quits.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am using NetBSD-5.1. 1. I wanted to know what happens internally when we create a file in linux. ?The header file STDIO.H present in "src/include/stdio.h" contains a "FILE" structure with various members like _p, _cookie, etc. 2. wanted to know how does internally memory gets allocated for them.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI cannot redirect output from commands such as iptables, iptables-save, and ifconfig. For example, any of the following DOESN'T work ( as root ):
Code:
iptables > tmp
iptables-save > tmp
ifconfig > tmp
The file tmp is ALWAYS blank, that is, 0 bytes in size. Wackier things DO work, such as:
Code:
echo "`iptables-save`" > tmp
iptables-save | tee tmp
Other commands like:
Code:
ls > tmp
DO work as expected.
Note that this problem happens regardless if I log-in remotely via ssh or locally on the computer in question. I am clueless as to what is causing this. Any ideas?The box is running 2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 and boots to runlevel 3. The modifications I've made to the box since installing the OS are things like compiling/installing latest OpenSSH,OpenSSL,httpd,BerkeleyDB,subversion,zlib etc -- nothing really out of the ordinary I'd say.
I have a CMS I have developed, which will run on several sites all hosted in sub directories on my dedicated server. I want to create symlinks for the main files of the CMS, including all config files, functions and admin sections. Then there will be a few files specific to each site.I read some tutorials on creating symlinks, although most are not very good in my opinion.
Do you have to create a symlink for every file I want to include? Or can I just create a symlink to a directory? For example:CMS is located at /www/cms/.Can I make www/domain1/ point to that directory, and if so, will all files include themselves correctly. I think I am a bit confused on how this works.
