Ok, I am sorry I am writing about this again. However, here's whyu. I pulled in my mail today, and I had 104 messages, most of them absolute and total first order junk. Well, mailfilter to the rescue, and, as far as I know now, I am getting only the messages I want. Well, I need to know how to solve this: I have runb tzconfig as root, and set the time zone to the proper us-eastern. Tzconfig says, on repeated runs that this is what I am set to. However, I still, when running date, get results in CET. My TZ invironmental variable didn't change when I ran the configuration program. Shœuld I just change this variable's value, then run ntpdate on the time server? Thanks. -- -- Doug Smith: C.S.F.C. Computer Scientist For CHRIST

Hi list, I just discovered Grml recently. I want to install it on my laptop's hard drive, using grml2hd. The laptop already runs Slackware 11.0. I chose a really lousy partitioning scheme when I installed Slackware: /dev/hda1, /boot, approx 40Mb /dev/hda2, swap, approx 512 Mb /dev/hda3, /, the remaining 19.5 Gb I don't want to get rid of /home when I install Grml, because it holds several gigabytes of assorted files. Is it possible to make grml2hd install to /dev/hda3 without destroying /home? PS, this is a good argument for having separate / and /home partitions; wish I had done that on the laptop! -- Chris

Generic answer: no. Hacker's answer without any guaranty (everyone has backups, right? :)): adjusting the initialize() function within /usr/sbin/grml2hd (deactivating the $MKFS and tune2fs lines) might do what you want. regards, -mika- -- http://grml.org/ # Linux for texttool-users and sysadmins http://wiki.grml.org/ # share your knowledge http://grml.supersized.org/ # the grml development weblog #grml <at> irc.freenode.org # meet us on irc

Wouldn't it be a better way to shrink the / partition and create your own /home partition? Than you can copy your actual /home to this new partition. This depends on the used fs (for ext3, reiserfs or something similar this shouldn't be a problem) but afterwards you would have solved your problems and would have your "wished" /home partition ;) Once again, this solution doesn't replace a working backup! greetings michael

Hi, Thanks for the reply. I ended up doing a fresh install with grml2hd, and copying the home partition from my primary system to my laptop with rsync. That worked as well as anything. BTW, Grml is great! I'm a blind user. After putting the CD in the drive and typing "grml swspeak", I had software speech. Now I can turn anybody's boring Windows box into a talking Linux system... Very cool! -- Chris
