Klinux ?

[RC]

At boot up I receive the message: invalid compressed format error

Anyone encountered this before?

I'm using 2.2D on a Duron

Hey RC, Give me second, let me look into it.

You might try a differant floppy in the time being.
If have not so good floppies do some weird stuff, and not work.

 

[MWalkden]

I used the 2.2D distro and no problems, better try again RC...

 

[Kilowatt]

I just did a fresh D/L and it works for me.

Try a differant floppy.

 

[RC]

It was an OC issue. Had to back down to 1000 from 1030. All I had to do to diagnose the problem was attempt to boot up with a win98se floppy. It became obvious it was an OC issue.

Now klinux says it can not find NIC. I'm using a realtek chipset - 8139B

You support the most recent (8139B) version of realtek, correct?

 

[Kilowatt]

Realtek nics are Klinux-2.1D

Is the layout of the page and differant version numbers, hard to figure out?
I've been woundering about that.
I didn't want to list all the network cards twice.

You had me worried for a second. :Q

 

[RC]

Usually 2.2 means a more recent release compared to 2.1.

My fault once again, I should have looked more carefully at your page.

Thanks for the help. Sorry for all the false alarms. I will grab 2.1D, I'm sure it will work.

 

[Kilowatt]

Well, it is.
I built version 2.1 before I built version 2.2 for those other nics.

 

[RC]

Kilowatt,

The horizontal line immediately above the list of NICs should perhaps be removed. This might reduce confusion. It doesn't take much for me to become confused.

I dl 2.1D and it worked fine.

Now off to dl a pproxy and install/configure it.

Klinux makes a very good OS for a crackrack. You did good, real good -

Duron 700@1000 3.57Mkeys/sec - $91

3.57 is nice
makes me want a Duron....

which MB are you using RC ??

..Dale

 

[Kilowatt]

<hehe> Thanks for the flowers RC, I'll put them with all the rest I've received.

I'll do that with the box, I was thinking of it tonight anyway.

 

[RC]

Dale - Asus A7V
To the best of my knowledge there exist only two mobos with built-in support for OC'ng a Duron/TBird - Asus and Abit.

Kiliwatt,
Do you have an SMP capable version that works with dual P100s?

Also, your package arrived today! Thanks!

 

[Kilowatt]

Ray, the only versions with SMP are the 686's.
I really didn't think that many people would have them old server boards.

<Edit>
I guess I might add that some time next week.
I might as well, I should then have everything covered.
