,----[ Quote ]
| George Vlahavas from the Salix OS development
| team proudly announced two days before
| Christmas that Salix 13.0.2 was available for
| download on mirrors worldwide. The good news
| for all the fans of this Slackware-based
| Linux distribution is that it now has a 64-
| bit edition, which is backwards compatible
| with the Slackware64 operating system.
| Salix64 offers an easier way to install the
| XFCE desktop environment, and a software
| repository with lots of packages. The Salix
| developers also prepared a software
| repository with dependency information for
| both 32-bit and 64-bit Slackware packages.

My Linux is not your LinuxTo the denizens of comp.os.linux.advocacy!
So many people demonstrate in this newsgroup that
they know only a Linux of Hatred and Greed, of paranoia,
and of a selfish sense of entitlement. They seem always to be
behaving like monkeys in reaction to human dissenters,
throwing feces at one another and beating their
chests pretending to know something.
My Linux is not that Linux. My Linux is the Linux of Love,
of sharing, friendship, community. It is a uniquely
human Linux and not one for monkeys. When I speak
with fellow Linux users in real life (i.e. not in the
monkeyhouse of COLA) they remind me of myself: practical,
freedom-loving, anti-corporate. Here in COLA however
they remind me of monkeys or spoiled brats or worse,
corporate sysadmins.
My Linux is not your Linux. It is the human Linux
that acknowledges that Linux involves human work
to create, that although it is free you are not
entitled to it, that although it is created in large part
by volunteers, they deserve to be paid for their
gifts with at least gratitude. And that monkeys and
self-entitled brats and sysadmins never thank anyone.

Ok, after two days of trying to get Windos 1900 installed and working , I
sat down an hour ago and installed Linux. In an hour.

Ok, I will be honest. I did have some problems, but I believe they were
of my own ignorance.

install. Why? Because I didn't read the menu. There is a startup menu

and subsequently realized that I should have chosen the 2nd men...

,----[ Quote ]
| For quite awhile, I’ve been wanting to
| install Debian onto my second PC, but I
| didn’t want to have to “start from
| scratch” and tweak and configure
| everything on it. What I really wanted to
| do was to use rsync to copy the files in
| debian1’s / and /home partitions onto
| partitions on debian2, and see if debian2
| would boot up and run, already configured
| the same way as debian1. I was concerned
| that it might not work, because debian1
| and debian2 use different monitor
| resolutions and completely different CPUs
| — although I was pretty confident that the
| different CPUs would not cause a problem
| because they can both use the type of
| linux kernel (686) that is already

| write to a tree structure such as a b-tree or

| log-structured file system writes all data and
| metadata sequentially in a continuous stream
| that is called a log (actually it is a
