I have:
1) redhat 6.2 (just installed) on a hard drive
2) win2000 (w/NTFS) installed on another hard drive
I know how to configure LILO to do dual boot.
But during the installation, I believe by default, the kernel is not
configure to read NTFS.
The question is, can I just load a module for that or do I have to
recompile the kernel.
either way, how would I do it?
Thanks,
Dan

With RH, you probably have to load the module. Look inQuote:>Hi Everyone,

modprobe ntfsQuote:>either way, how would I do it?

1. please help (it's simple, but I am too stupid)
(This wasn't covered by the FreeBSD handbook, nor the FAQ)
I am a fresh FreeBSD beginner, and - surprise - I have got a problem
now. This is not my first FreeBSD installation. The reason I screwed up
the first one was that it was laid out as follows:
/ 30 MB
/var 30 MB
/swap 100 MB
/usr 1700 MB
Then I tried to compile a large program (gcc 2.95.1) and /var space was
more than full, FreeBSD crashed.
Then I thought the whole concept of "partitioning" the FreeBSD partition
once more was superfluous, wastes space (you have to reserve space for
the worst case, if you don't need it /var space is wasted and cannot be
used by /usr, e. g.). OK, I installed from scratch and laid out:
/swap 100 MB
/ 1900 MB
Recently, I tried out linux emulation, and FreeBSD crashed with kernel
panic. After reboot, it said it couldn't mount the root filesystem, and
I could (it seems) start in single user mode. Then I did fsck. fsck said
"file system still dirty, please rerun fsck". I thought well, on a
mounted filesystem this probably won't work, started the emergency CD
and fsck'ed the partition again, this time fsck prompted me to repair a
dozen things, I always said "yes", but after reboot I was still in
single user mode and got the same error messages from fsck ("still
dirty, please rerun").
So, my question is: how do I get past single user mode. Or am I doomed
because of my FreeBSD partition layout and better install from scratch
with the proposed (by /stand/sysinstall), if so, what layout would you
propose to waste as little disk space as possible?
TIA
