Looks like he may have a RAID volume he is booting to. I could be wrong. He may need a specific kernel module that is not on the live cd, such as for a scsi controller, ATA100 PCI card controller or something similar. Could also be that he has SATA and that is not enabled on the specific live cd that he has. Need more details on the system hardware and which LiveCD, including version, that he is using. ******************************************* If the automobile had followed the same development cycle as the computer, a Rolls-Royce would today cost $100, get a million miles per gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside. - Robert X.

I'm available to help out with setup tonight (setup is tonight, right?) and can help man the booth tomorrow morning or thursday morning. Tomorrow morning would actually work slightly better for me, but I'll help whenever the LUG needs it. > _______________________________________________ > Kclug mailing list > Kclug(a)kclug.org > http://kclug.org/mailman/listinfo/kclug

Please respond to the list if you are planning on manning the booth for ITEC. -- I digitally sign my emails. If you see an attachment with .asc, then that means your email client doesn't support PGP digital signatures. http://www.gnupg.org/(en)/documentation/faqs.html#q1.1

ITEC Live CD update
by Jason Clinton 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

Since we last discussed this, Ubuntu 5.10 has been released. I downloaded it tonight and I've just discovered that there's a HUGELY important feature on their Live CD that I think we should consider: the "Live CD" not only includes the standard "live" Linux environment but also a pretty Windows autorun "welcome screen" with *installers* for OpenOffice, Mozilla Firefox and GAIM for Windows! IMHO, this is wonderful! We can hand out a _single_ CD that promotes using open source software on either Windows or Linux at the same time! Download it and try it out! It's so pretty too. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ Anyways, this is hands-down the best "newbie" CD I've ever found. The Ubuntu guys are really deserve a lot of accolades for this... -- I use digital signatures and encryption. Stored at pgp.mit.edu key "0x8DB3BF09" F628 D9D3 E57A C281 5EFE 7DF7 B52A A393 8DB3 BF09

semi-OT: Gutenberg
by Jack 21 Oct '05

21 Oct '05

I have downloaded and burned a copy of the Gutenberg 10K DVD. It contains approximately 9500 books. Since this is a FREE Library, as in FREE Beer, and FREE Speech, I thought it might be appropriate for the list. TGP people also ask to spread the wealth sort of speak. While, I'd like to burn copies to give out at ITEC, I don't really have that many DVDs, but would be happy to burn a few for LUG members. It includes many of the classics, as well as some controversial one, statistics, history, religion, childrens, pretty much a full range of the Dewey Decimal. Some are also relatively new ones released by the authors. Brian JD

Hi, I'll be available to help out at iTech but on the 27th I'll have to leave early. I'll bring the stand-up penguin poster and several books about Linux. Michael librarian(a)kclug.org http://www.handuma.com
