Greetings there,
i am in need of couple of mandriva dvd's to be given to users of systems where i installed mandriva.
So i copied my mandriva dvd to hard disk, and used k3b to write it all to the blank dvd media.
Now when i boot using the newly written dvd, it does not boot from it.
I guess i need to attach a boot file(image file) to the dvd to make it bootable...i really do not know which file that it is... i think it is in the isolinux folder.
here are its contents:
[rohitsz@localhost isolinux]$ ls advanced.msg* alt1/ boot.msg* isolinux.bin* test/ alt0/ boot.cat* help.msg* isolinux.cfg* xbox/ [rohitsz@localhost isolinux]$
kindly help me finding that.
The topmost dir of the dvd is as follows:
[rohitsz@localhost cdrom]$ ls autorun.inf* dosutils/ INSTALL.txt* linuxboot.cfg* pkg-2006.0.idx* copying* export* isolinux/ md5sum* README.txt* default.xbe* index.htm* lang/ media/ release-notes.txt* doc/ install/ LICENSE.txt* misc/ version* [rohitsz@localhost cdrom]$
And can i now make the dvd that i wrote bootble or do i need to get another media!?
thanks,
rohit.

Greetings there,
Well actually i was handed over the system in this state, so really don't know how it landed in this state what i know is that there was extensive use of a 3D drawing package for quite some long time...
Also i did run scan disk but it says to free up disk space.
But that is windows incapability...
Is there any way that i do not mount the partition or using the dd command anyways to delete those files?
i need to dig more deeper..i am not favoring formatting of the partition, as the re-install of software is a big bore on windows!
anyways, thanks for all your help, i am looking for more,will put here if i find anything..
regards,
rohit.

Hi ian,
If you type this:mount
it should show your mounted drives, does it show the fat32 mounted, and does it show as rw? If as ro, try this from my website:
My partition is mounted rw...
[root@localhost win_c]# mount |grep /dev/hda1 /dev/hda1 on /mnt/win_c type vfat (rw,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850) [root@localhost win_c]#
As you can see it is mounted in rw mode.
What i can make of this is probably, due to large files, some how this error is cropping up. I am looking for a low level file deletion utility, if that fits in this situation.
thanks,
rohit.

Greetings there.
Well i am in a kind of a weird situation.
This problem is created by windows, but i think linux can get me out of this.
So it happened one day, that my win98 partition somehow got corrupted, and it left a hell lot of files that range from 500M to 2+G.
A screen shot of the same is here
So i tried to mount that partition as rw, but whenever i try to delete any file(with a little less strange names than the ones in the pic), i get a read-only file system error.
I have tried tools like 'rm -f', 'shred -f'.
But still no success.
Also i even tried writing a small piece of code in java to truncate the files, but still the same 'read-only' file system error.
Here's the proof:
(see /dev/hda1 mounted rw on /mnt/win_c)
[root@localhost win_c]# mount /dev/hdb8 on / type ext3 (rw) none on /proc type proc (rw) none on /sys type sysfs (rw) none on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,devmode=0664,devgid=43) /dev/hdb2 on /boot type ext3 (rw) /dev/hdb10 on /home type ext3 (rw) none on /mnt/floppy type supermount (rw,sync,dev=/dev/fd0,fs=ext2:vfat,--) /dev/hda1 on /mnt/win_c type vfat (rw,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850) /dev/hdb5 on /mnt/win_c2 type vfat (rw,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850) /dev/hda5 on /mnt/win_d type vfat (rw,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850) /dev/hdb6 on /mnt/win_d2 type vfat (rw,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850) /dev/hda6 on /mnt/win_e type vfat (rw,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850) /dev/hda7 on /mnt/win_f type vfat (rw,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850) /dev/hda8 on /mnt/win_g type vfat (rw,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850) /dev/hdb9 on /usr type ext3 (rw) [root@localhost win_c]# ls ding_com.pon ding_com.pon* [root@localhost win_c]# shred -f ding_com.pon shred: ding_com.pon: Read-only file system [root@localhost win_c]#
Kindly help me how can i remove those files thru linux.
thanks,
rohit.

Hi,
My Mandriva 2005 box does not have a DVD burner. I do have a package called k3b-dvd-0.11.20-7mdk installed. I believe this is the package Ixthusdan is referring to.yes.. i guess my silly mistake!
maybe i need a little sleep.
the package is called k3b-dvd.
and here's what i got...
[root@localhost Desktop]# urpmi k3b-dvd To satisfy dependencies, the following 2 packages are going to be installed (0 MB): dvd+rw-tools-5.21.4.10.8-2mdk.i586 k3b-dvd-0.12.3-11mdk.i586 Is this OK? (Y/n) Y
next time i'll be more aware before posting
thanks again.

Greetings there,
i have added a new SONY DVD R/RW device, and have started k3b first time.
My previous cd r/rw is configured correctly and is able to read/write cd r/rw.
now i got the following error:
Unable to find growisofs executable K3b uses growisofs to actually write dvds. Without growisofs you won't be able to write dvds. Make sure to install at least version 5.10. Solution: Install the dvd+rw-tools package. Unable to find dvd+rw-format executable K3b uses dvd+rw-format to format DVD-RWs and DVD+RWs. Solution: Install the dvd+rw-tools package.
how to i implement the above suggested solution?
i tried the following:
[root@localhost Desktop]# urpmi k3b The package(s) are already installed [root@localhost Desktop]# urpmi growisofs no package named growisofs [root@localhost Desktop]#
thanks,
rohit.

Greetings there,
Apologies for the late update...
Well thanks a lot to all people who replied..mandriva did easily allow to shrink the windows partition.
There was just one issue regarding the install, that when i tried to shrink the partition, then the 'shrinking' took a bit too long then i rebooted the system, then again the 'shrinking' went ok. This happened two times, and it was worked ok after rebooting the system,without any loss of data on windows.
Two things i had done before the 'shrinking':
1)Defrag the windows drive.
2)Disable and enable the page file before and after the install respectively.
During the 'shrinking' process, if anyone is aware of how mandriva allows to partition disks,in color coded partitions and filesystems mappings, though scary(heh!),but the resizing is very intutive.
And with this, i(& friends) were able to dual boot windows and mandriva.
The count is 15 as of now(in one day,rather 3 hours,with lotsa fun and knowledge sharing!), but this will undoubtedly increase with the success of the dual booting process.
So the same continues the coming week ;-)
thanks to all for your help and guidance...
regards,
rohit.

Greetings there,
We have couple of systems at college,where gnu/linux was to be installed, but we got systems that had m$ window$ on it.
So we can't remove it totally..so have to make compromise and have win$ and gnu/linux co-exist. As most gnu/linux distro's allow this,and with things in my (humble)hands,i have decided to install mandriva le 2006 on them.
Untill now i have installed mandriva by making seperate partitions through window$ going thru the repartitioning of disks and re-installing of window$ .This is the first time that i won't be allowed to 'mess' with window$ install, so have to compress the win$ partition and make room for mandriva.
I have heard(read) that fips 2.0 does the job with fat32 systems.But at a mandriva site, they list a mandriva's 'lossless partitioning tool' I have not seen it listed anywhere else.Also the same link suggests the use of fips 2.0 tool for pre mandriva 7.0 releases!
So could someone tell me how and where i can find any more information on the above and proceed with a co-existing,peaceful dual boot system at these systems.
thanks,
rohit.

Greetings there,
thanks for replies :-)
it seems all problems are solved after cleaning the urpmi db.

Greetings there,
couple of times on using urpmi, i get strange messages like the following:

One may note that i tried to update Main twice,but still got the same error..
should't the second consecutive call to update Main indicate that Main is already updated?
same happened with plf_free,jpackage...
what shall i do now?

Before the urpmi, i had changed my dvd drive from an acer(dvd-r) to a samsung(dvd-r/rw).Could that contribute to this error?
thanks,

Hello there,
I still do not understand, how did thisservice network restart
allowed tomcat to listen to port 8080.
Well on more detailed examination, i figured out that the local loopback connection is the thing that is at the bottom of the problem.As the above command, disconnected me from internet also, i started to figure out a way to overcome it..
I did this:
[root@localhost rohitsz]# ifup lo [root@localhost rohitsz]#
And after that starting tomcat, i could see the standard tomcat page.
So, how do i make these two steps automatic??
thanks,
rohit.

Hello there,
try stopping your firewall:service shorewall stop
i think is the right command (either that or try firewall or iptables for the service name - i forget which is right). then try pinging and telneting - if it still doesn't work then the firewall shouldn't be your problem.
I tried what you said,here's the output:
[root@localhost rohitsz]# service iptables s save start status stop [root@localhost rohitsz]# service iptables stop Resetting built-in chains to the default ACCEPT policy: [ OK ] [root@localhost rohitsz]# ping 127.0.0.1 PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. --- 127.0.0.1 ping statistics --- 4 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2999ms [root@localhost rohitsz]# service shorewall stop Loading /usr/share/shorewall/functions...

I still do not understand, how did this
service network restart
allowed tomcat to listen to port 8080.
thank you all for bearing with my newbie-ness :-)

Hello there,
ping localhost doesnt work because you dont have a DNS entry assigned. the easiest way is to just add a line in /etc/hosts that points localhost to 127.0.0.1telnet 127.0.0.1 doesnt work because you arent running telnet, no distro I know of out there installs a telnet server out of the box, let alone starts it by default.
James
here's my telnet output(for 192.168.1.1):
[root@localhost rohitsz]# telnet 192.168.1.1 Trying 192.168.1.1... Connected to 192.168.1.1. Escape character is '^]'. login: root Password: BusyBox v0.61.pre (2005.08.25-07:00+0000) Built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands. # ls bin etc proc usr var.tar dev lib sbin var # Connection closed by foreign host. [root@localhost rohitsz]#
and here's my /etc/hosts
[root@localhost rohitsz]# cat /etc/hosts # generated by drakhosts 127.0.0.1 localhost [root@localhost rohitsz]#
But these did not make me reach to the solution of the problem...
the main command was:
#service network restart
that made things going for me...
Still lost!

Greetings there,
I posted my problem at tomcat user's mailing list, and from there i got the following reply:
(assuming your configs are backed up) check out modify configs at /etc/rc.d/init.d/network *AND* /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup *then do* service network restart *then ICMP ping* ping WhateverHostYouWantToPing
and also this:
I think you need to fix your networking issues before trying to setup tomcat. If the link you supplied is your support case, the lo network interface isn't working or properly configured. ifconfig on a console logged in as root should show the active network interfaces including at least eth0 and lo. lo should have a inet addr of 127.0.0.1. Tomcat binds it's shutdown port specifically to 127.0.0.1. If that address doesn't exist on the local system, the error below will occur.
Being a newbie, i simply tried what i could understand,i could do.

From then on, things started to worked, and i have tomcat running!
i asked for an explanation there, as to how it happened, i did got a reply, but i could not make anything out of it...
You have correctly reconfigured your interfaces to accept traffic on Port 8080 from/to127.0.0.1-You have also correctly configured DNS/BIND entry for localhost
The hard part will be to make sure your vendor doesnt muck with a working configuration..
i did not ask more anything there, as i would have been off-topic, so could someone here explain what made tomcat listen to that port and what could be the state of my firewall!
thanks,
rohit.

Hello,
to really check if firewall causes that problem.. try to clear your iptables just for checking, as root...
#iptables -F
.
it will leave iptables empty and accepts everything, then ping loopback again..
I tried flushing the firewall rules,but still nothing..
surprisingly,i am unable to access any website,since flushing the rules...(this i am writing from another system)
i just doubt,is the /etc/sysctl.conf file all ok?
<edit>
here's some more output:
[root@localhost rohitsz]# service iptables status [root@localhost rohitsz]# ping 127.0.0.1 PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. --- 127.0.0.1 ping statistics --- 4 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2999ms [root@localhost rohitsz]#
i had to use shorewall to allow everything thru the firewall to enable access to sites.

Greetings there,
I had *messed* with my firewall couple of months back, at that time i was pretty happy that i got good results from grc!
But now, for a couple of days my *messing* has cost me too much that i am unable to work on a local college project.
I have configured tomcat,but am unable to connect neither to http://localhost:8080 nor am i getting satisfactory status messgae from the tomcat startup script.
I am attaching couple of screen output, if anyone of you can draw any conclusion, in making me talk to localhost!

Greetings All,

thanks,
rohit.

Greetings there,
Some how, i have removed tomcat(and related packages) from my system.
So i downloaded tomcat and ant binaries and put them to /usr/local/tomcat and /usr/local/ant based on this.
So there are couple of doubts...
1)How do i confirm tomcat is running?
I did a $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh,it return without any indication of the server has started...
[root@localhost logs]# /usr/local/tomcat/bin/startup.sh Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/tomcat Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/tomcat Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/tomcat/temp Using JRE_HOME: /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_06 [root@localhost logs]#
When i shut it down,it gives this :
[root@localhost logs]# /usr/local/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/tomcat Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/tomcat Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/tomcat/temp Using JRE_HOME: /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_06
it stalls after the last line,so i have to do a CONTROL-C to exit.
the log is here
2)After assuming that tomcat is running, i tried to go to http://localhost:8080 but i always get a connection timeout. I have totally removed the firewall to listen to any ports,but still no change.I also tried to configure drakfirewall to allow 8080/tcp port,but still no success.
Please help.

Thanks a lot for solving my usb problem!
i commented out the /dev/sda1 entry in /etc/fstab and the drive now works better.
i have nothing to say except thank you again! :-)
regards,
rohit.

Hi ian,
/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs umask=0,nls=iso8859-15,ro 0 0
so after where it says vfat in your fstab, put umask=0 on the options line. If there are other options, make sure a comma is placed to separate them like my example above.
The entry for my usb(vfat) is as follows:
/dev/sda1 /mnt/ROHIT vfat rw,noauto,exec,user,quiet,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
Is there anything wrong/missing anything in this?(except umask=0).
I know where to add umask.. but what is umask?
regards,
rohit.

Hello Again,
All needed modules are loaded, so there shouldn't be a real problem.Please try in a root console:
urpmi dosfstools
and then mounting the pendrive again, and performing I/O operations. Linux does need the above package to perform several tasks on vfat volumes.
i did try what you said.
i have this package installed...
but i still face the same problem.
Also my drive mounts read only thru GUI. is there a way that i can make it mount in read-write mode when i double click /dev/sda1 in Devices?
thanks,
rohit.

Hello there,
sorry for the late reply...
I assume its formatted as vfat/ FAT32?Can you pass an lsmod with the pendrive already mounted?

Making Mandriva Bootable DVD [solved]
in Installing Mandriva
Posted · Edited by rohitsz
Hi,
thanks for the tip :-)
I am quite happy to follow what you said and got a bootable dvd
Anyways i'll give the non-bootable to someone who ain't gona remove mandriva from their systems.
So i'll most certainly put that to use too :-)
thanks again both to scarecrow and pmpatrick(for step by step instructions) :-)
regards,
rohit.
