qn about partitioning

iamroot

I've got a friend who wants to install GNU/Linux but his hard disk is entirely occupied by 1 NTFS partition, as it is with all default Windows installations. How can I extract space from his NTFS partition and format it in ext3 for GNU/Linux.

I'm a real newbeeeeee!

deesmygal

I'm very new to this, I would like to figure out how to get Mandrake 10. 1 installed. I downloaded it and I think I made the disk correctly. I used Roxio's disk creator and burned a disk from an image file.

Hi. I'm a potential new Linux user currently testing the water but I've already had my toe bitten off. Trying to use a live CD, the system wouldn't/couldn't operate my monitor which is a Samsung SyncMaster 193T.

Update On SUSE 9.3 and SATA RAID0 Install Attempt!

zenarcher

Here is an update on my SUSE 9. 3 Pro installation. Seems that I had messed some things up, so I decided to do a reinstall, possibly correcting some of my mistakes. While I was at it, I thought I'd give RAID one more try.

Realtek

alexmc

I have a new Foxconn 755A01-6EKRS motherboard which claims to have a 10/100/1000 Fast Gigabit Ethernet port from Realtek in it. However Linux (Fedora Core 4 and Gentoo Live CD 2004. 3) only sees it as a 10/100.

I'm probably the last person to find out about this, but I thought it was interesting, so I'll pass it along. There's a website, called, The Linux Counter, where you can register as a Linux user and also register the information about your system.

"bad eip value"

oprogue

I'm attempting to install linux on an old HP Vectra 500 which orginally had Win95. The box has a P1 processor with 48 Mb ram and a 1. 2 gig HD. I've partitioned the HD with partition magic with a 300 Mb Dos partition (fresh install of Win95), a 200 Mb Linux swap partition, and the remainder as a linux partition.

Secure File Deletion

zenarcher

Maybe I'm looking for something that's not needed. But, I've done a bit of searching and not come up with any sort of application of this nature. I'm wondering if there is any sort of secure file shredder in Linux.
