Problem with WorkStation Setup in RedHat 5.2/Intel

Problem with WorkStation Setup in RedHat 5.2/Intel

Post by Nagib Tharan » Thu, 24 Dec 1998 04:00:00



Hi,

Using WinNT/64MB SDRAM/Pentium MMX 200/Trying to install Linux

I have a 3.2G HD partitioned in to a 2.2 and 1GB partiton.  I deleted the
1GB partition and then proceed with the workstation install.
It created a 20MB partition, a 977MB Partition and a 32MB Swap partition.
After 10 seconds it stopped telling me the device to which it was installing
was full.  I think it is trying to install everything on the 20MB partition.
Is there any way to avert this?

Thanks in advance.

Nagib

why not doing a custom install and partion the drive urself...then point to
setup where u want the packages to be installed..

Hope this helps

1. problems printing to intel NetportExpress PRO/100 print server with redhat 5.2 linux

I am running RedHat 5.2 linux on a Intel Pentium III. We have other
machines in our network that can print to our Intel NetportExpress
PRO/100 print server with no problems. However I cannot seem to get
our Linux servers to print to the print server. I have a Cannon
LPB-1260 laser printer attached to the print server which is a HP
compatible printer.

I am able to ping the print server from my linux system just fine.

Here is my /etc/printcap file:
netlsrptr|netlsrptr|netlsrptr-on-parallel-port-1:\
:rm=209.69.52.131:\
:rp=LPT1_TEXT:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/netlsrptr:

If I issue a /usr/sbin/lpc status command after trying to send a print
job here are the results:
netlsrptr:
        queuing is enabled
        printing is enabled
        1 entry in spool area
        waiting for netlsrptr to become ready (offline ?)

If I issue an lpq -Pnetlsrptr command I get these results:
waiting for netlsrptr to become ready (offline ?)
Rank   Owner      Job  Files                                 Total
Size
1st    root       13   (standard input)                      1191
bytes

The printer has paper and is online. If I print from my workstation or
another server I do not have problems.

Any help with my problem would be greatly appreciated.
