Subject: [smalllinux] Tiny Linux From: Steven Gibson <superant@superant.com> From: "Matthew van Amstel" <vanamstel@hotmail.com> Date: Thu, 18 Feb 1999 09:39:43 EST I am doing a school project on LINUX and I was wondering if you could send me some information on Tiny LINUX. The links on your homepage are dead so I thought I'd ask you personally. Thanks for your help. Date: Sun, 21 Feb 1999 16:23:47 +0100 To: Steven Gibson <superant@superant.

From kernel versions 1.1.80 on, the compressed kernel image, which is what LILO needs to find, is in arch/i386/boot/zImage, or arch/i386/boot/bzImage when it is built, and is normally stored in the /boot/ directory. The /etc/lilo.conf file should refer to the vmlinuz symbolic link, not the actual kernel image. This was changed to make it easier to build kernel versions for several different processors from one source tree. See similar questions...

To save a whole slide: Open the powerpoint presentation and go the slide you want. Select ‘File’ → ‘Save As’ and the change the ‘Save as type’ from ‘Presentation (*.ppt)’ to ‘(*.gif)’ or (*.png) and save. To save an individual slide element: Select the image or background to save and right click, select ‘Save as Picture’ and save it as a GIF or a PNG. See similar questions...

There are several ways to extract spectra from ISGRI data. I do not claim that the one I propose here is the best or the most accurate. Use it wisely. Here is the step-by-step description how to extract ISGRI spectra from a mosaic image. See similar questions...

Extract are created by processing a raw material with a solvent and can be used both in medicine as well as the perfume industry. It is "a solution obtained by steeping or soaking" botanicals (roots, leaves, bark etc.) - in our case it is either oil, water, glycerin or grape alcohol. See similar questions...

The details of doing this depend on your web browser, not on anything specific to PhysioNet or to the specific files you wish to download, so the first thing you should do is to learn how to use your web browser. Most browsers have a Help button that can get you started. See similar questions...

In Binary mode a file is copied bit for bit from one machine to the other. Both files (the original and the transferred file) will contain exactly the same sequence of bytes. See similar questions...

Information about binary distributions of PDL can be found on http://pdl.perl.org . At present there are binary distributions of PDL for Linux (RedHat and Debian), FreeBSD and Windows. If someone is interested in providing binary distributions for other architectures, that would be very welcome. Let us know on the pdl-porters@jach.hawaii.edu mailing list. Yes, PDL does run on Linux and indeed much of the development has been done under Linux. On http://pdl.perl. See similar questions...

The developers make sure that the software builds and works correctly on the platforms available to them; this does not necessarily mean that your platform is one of them. In addition, the Apache HTTP server project is primarily source oriented, meaning that distributing valid and buildable source code is the purpose of a release, not making sure that there is a binary package for all of the supported platforms.

ADB) Production or stable kernels have a well defined feature set, a low number of known bugs, and tried and proven drivers. They are released less frequently than the experimental kernels, but even so some "vintages" are considered better than others. GNU/Linux distributions are usually based on chosen stable kernel versions, not necessarily the latest production version. See similar questions...

ADB) These are intermediate pre-release versions of version f.g.hh. Note that usually i < 5, but e.g. 2.0.34prei was available with i = 1 to 16. Sometimes "pre" is replaced by the initials of the developer putting together the kernel revision, e.g. 2.1.105ac4 means the 4th intermediate release of kernel version 2.1.105 by Alan Cox. See similar questions...

RRR) Depending on your patch there are several ways to get it into the kernel. The first thing is to determine under which maintainer does your code fall into (look in the MAINTAINERS file). If your patch is only a small bugfix and you're sure that it is 'obviously correct', then by all means send it to the appropriate maintainer and post it to the list. If there is urgency to the bugfix (i.e. See similar questions...

REG) Originally, Linus Torvalds maintained the kernel. As the kernel has matured, he has delegated maintenance for older stable versions to others, while he continues development of the latest "bleeding edge" release. As of 27-MAY-2002, the following kernel versions are maintained by these people: See similar questions...

REG) See the Kernel HOWTO for some information. Also, there are people at http://www.kernelnewbies.org/ who are usually willing to help. William Stearns) The Buildkernel script walks you through an entire kernel build, including downloading the necessary files, patching the source, building the kernel and modules, installing the lot into lilo, and optionally building pcmcia-cs, cipe, and freeswan code for that kernel.

These files are OEM versions of Ontrack. They have got a big bug: an error occures when you want to rename a file. The IBM*.COM files nativly support the new partition type 0Fh (LBA). It's not recommended to use these files if you don't know what you do. The COMMAND.COM file seems to be okay, but I didn't notice any changes. See similar questions...

A liquid herbal extract is a concentrated liquid solution made from extracting the herbal plant alkaloids from the herbal mash of a given herbal formula. This extracted liquid preserves the various herbal compounds in a preserved herbal liquid that can be taken internally for higher effectiveness while it enters the blood stream faster. The liquid typically used to make the an extract is either grain alcohol or glycerin. See similar questions...
