Using Two Hard Drives With Linux Only System

zenarcher
I am using Mandriva PowerPack 2005 LE. I have two, 80GB SATA hard drives in my system, as I had the intent to set them up in RAID0 array, using mdadm. I've spent no less than 3 months, trying to set up a RAID0 array with mdadm, but I'm not competent enough in Linux nor SATA RAID to do so.

HELP. forgot root password

linuxfun
Regarding the pervious post on how to change root password if forgotten was unhelpful. I went to /etc/passwd file. But when I opened it I was unable to edit/change anything, it was only RO. I am the only user on this machine.

Fedora Core 3 on Vmware 5: Installing Vmtools?

Annorax
I've been having problems with FC3 and VMtools. I installed FC3 fine and everything works. But it's very slow and stuck in 800x600, so Vmtools is needed to help. The first time I hit Install VMtools, it was in the CD drive, and I hit the RPM file to install it.

Has Anyone Heard From blackpage?

zenarcher
I was just wondering if anyone knows or has heard from one of the regular forum posters, blackpage. He was helping me with setting up a SATA-RAID array for my Mandriva Linux. It was a pretty complex little exercise, using mdadm.

problems with 2.6.11-1.35 kernel

iamroot
I'm intending to switch over to Fedora Core 4 from FC3 so I got a portable hard disk to backup my 5 GB+ worth of files and documents. I was worried that my portable HDD wouldn't work but was really relieved when I plugged it in yesterday and it auto-mounted like a flash drive.

CAN'T Install Mandriva LE2005.

Valet
This is really getting to the point where I'm throwing things around my room, because I can't install Mandriva. It just stops halfway through the install, everytime, without any provocation. This is my first OS on a system that I just finished building today.
