I installed sun-jdk-1.4.2.01 now my error has changed to "checking if javac works... configure: error: The Java compiler javac failed (see config.log, check the CLASSPATH?)" my CLASSPATH reads /opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.01/jre/lib:/opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.01/lib/tools.jar:/opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.01/jre/lib/...

There is I think it's in linuxrc you've probably found it by now you can probablly do a "sed -e "s/reiserfs/ext3 /" /mnt/initrd/linuxrc" or something similar to sort it out Thanks for your help on this! That files, got alot of crap in it, do I have to do something special with i...

Not sure of you error, but I have had numerous problems with java apps not liking blackdown.

i've been using suns jdk and its been fine for a while now.

sed -e "s/reiserfs/ext3 " /mnt/hda2/etc/fstab > /tmp/fstab mv /tmp/fstab /mnt/hda2/etc/fstab chmod 644 /mnt/hda2/etc/fstab that should sort you out Did it the harder way :) but its done now, this is a neater way for me doing my other xbox, thx. Still not quite there. There must be somewhe...

Thx for the quick response.

changed this

mount -t reiserfs -o loop /mnt/fatx/e/rootfs /mnt/rootfs

for this:

mount -t reiserfs -o loop /mnt/e/rootfs /mnt/rootfs

and it all seams to work nicely

just need to change the fstab without an editor now

cheers

To create the loop file system dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/fatx/e/rootfs count=2500 bs=1024k yes | mkreiserfs -f /mnt/fatx/e/rootfs Then you will have to boot your system using the stardust CD use ctrl+c to get out of the installer. mkdir /mnt/rootfs mkdir /mnt/hda2 mount -t reiserfs -o loop /mnt/fatx/...

I tried emerge fluxbox, but i got an error at the end..... so y isnt it working for me?? late getting back to you, but I see others have replied :) what error do you get? hard to help without it :) If the error is with 0.1.14, then I suggest installing the dev release. Still 'light' but has some ni...

emerge fluxbox

will give you version 1.14r2 and if you want the development version, then;

emerge x11-wm/fluxbox/fluxbox-0.9.6_pre9.ebuild

cheers

If you have a native install small enough you can create a loop filesystem on e: copy the contents of your hda2 into it then reformat the drive in ext3 and copy everything back. If you have too much stuff installed on to your linux partition you could swap your harddisk into a PC and copy the files...

shcoobs does it chug? So is 'chug' some aussie slang then fuz :) ? No its very light, low memory and selectable 'eye candy' & very configurable. Its got tabs, which are great, some anti aliased fonts, and other stuff which I don't select. Really, it flies compared to kde crap. The dev tree has ...

Why not?

I'm running fluxbox for months now .. installs in less than a minute!

Choose the 0.1.14 or development tree from portage

spathi Yep, you are right. I'm sure you can use ext3. I'm using native 'f' install. Its the xbox specifics I'm not sure of. Should be able to move the data on /hda2 'somewhere else', reformat it to ext3, then move the data back. Change fstab for /hda2 to ext3 and that should be it. Maybe I am making...

spathi wrote:fuz - in native install you can use whatever file system you like

So how do you do that then?

According to my fstab in pro /dev/hda2 is reiserfs

Please enlighten me

Thx, although its more like I need to spend some time on getting ext3 working instead of reiser,

Its not as fast, but damn it can recover from crashes ..
