1. I'd like to choose a small distribution, but one that is easy for me to deploy and manage (I'm new to Linux, but I am an IT professional). What shall I use?
2. I'd like to understand the implications of using Compact Flash. Will the OS need to write to disk? Can I configure my installation so that the CF card is read-only and provide a small writeable partition on my hard drive for any required IO? Should I not bother, and put it all on HD? (My motivation for using CF was to limit power-consumption/noise/heat).

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn the past (before UpStart was used in Ubuntu) I was able to configure multiple boot items in Grub menu to load the same kernel but into different runlevels. I had configured runlevel 3 (I went into /etc/rc3.d/ and removed the symlink to /etc/init.d/gdm) to be w/o GDM, so that if I had chosen it, my box would not boot into X.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've used Ubuntu just a couple of times, and I've Never performed the Installation. I've been a Windows user mostly.But I'm ready for a change. I would like to Install Linux on my Desktop & Netbook Computer.Problem is, how to go about it.On the Desktop, I'm not the only person using it, and while I'm all & ready to try Ubuntu (Specially since XP Broke 3 days ago and the Format is impending) The rest of the people using the PC aren't. On the Netbook, right now I can't since I'm working on something, and I'm worried about compatibility issues between Platforms.So I did some research on how to get both Platforms up and running, and I found Wubi. Seemed like a perfect way to start!However, I downloaded the client, and when Downloading the rest of the Installation software, It just took way too long!On ETA it marked 4 hours at first (sure enough, it took little more than that) but then it gave me a new ETA of 8 HOURS!
Is there any other way to download it? Other than the 1.6 Mb Client file? & For the Desktop. Since I'm formating the HD anyway, What steps should I follow to install both OS on it?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was trying to install debian etch in my laptop, but it seems that the kernel 2.6.26 has a bug related to the ACPIC Timer and the HDD controler, so the installation in some part is freezed, so, I found that in the kernel 2.6.3xx the bugs are gone, it looks that i have to install unstable or testing, searching in the wiki is not enough clear for me what should I choose, so my question is:based in your experience, which is better to choose unstable or testing?

I will run mdadm anyway. So the question is should I really pay 3 times more for HighPoint ? Is there any reason for that or Sil3124 will do the same ? What about compatibility ? As I know both cards are supported on thet kernel.

I want to set up a very simple version control system in my own computer, which only I will use. I want to use it mainly for latex files, not programming. I basically want to use it as a smart backup system and to keep track of past versions, but I don't need merging, patching, etc... My typical needs are the following:Work on a file many times and committ the changes every couple of days.Every now and then, try something new, and do it on a new branch. If it doesn't work, go back to the original one.
Take a look at a previous version (often a binary file, say a pdf or dvi file).I have used git so far, for no special reason, but I haven't been able to get comfortable with it, specially since it only handles text files efficiently (I think). My main issue is with point 3 above, I haven't found a way (maybe there's just no way) of pointing to a previous version of a file and opening it in an external program. Would CVS or SVN or any other version control system allow me to do this easily?

I currently just have an AT&T DSL modem, but I have super fast DSL (about 7,000 kbps down and 1500 kbps up), and it costs me about 60% of comparable cable service Anyway just a desktop switch won't help until I get a router set up. No doubt the easiest way to go would be AT&T's own router for $100 US:

Used ubuntu a little, few days ago tried booting with puppy linux on usb drive.
I was amazed by its speed, since everything runs in ram, its not comparable with w7. That is the key feature im looking for.
I know, that the most common recommendation here, is to "try out different *nix based OS-es and find the one that suits".
I hope i can rely on other people experience, who have comparable system and silmilar hopes.
What i expect?
-working infrared
-speedstep
-hibernation?!
-support for canon camera
-ACPI (crucial, since t41 has "fan always on" issue)
-quick boot
-constant saving (puppy saves data to memory, which is a problem is power-cut happens)
Im sure puppy can fill out most of these requirements, but still im looking word from you guys.
Ive heard a lot good about algo zenwalk, vector, MijnPup, igelle...
Oh, maybe even tinycore will work...
There are simply so many of them, but i would like to sort out one which has periodical updates and has fulfilled my requirements. Also, Gnome interface would be nice.
I state that, i wont be needing bundled software, because i can get what i want later on and i don't want excess trouble uninstalling software.
