Newbie swimming in LINUX will I drown ?Forum: DSL Embedded Topic: Newbie swimming in LINUX will I drown ? started by: Ankuryu Posted by Ankuryu on Mar. 08 2006,11:40
hi guys,I was fed up with the blue screen of windows, so I turned 2 linux, I searched around and I found DSL. So 2 try it out before chucking windows out of window I fitted the Embedded DSL. However I have not managed simple things with this Embedded Linux. No MAN pages in DSL makes it worse. I did not find the 'where' command as also many other commands. Y isn't there a PDF file giving a summary of the commands included excluded. All the books I keep refering 2 have many commands I do not find in DSL. It gets frustrating. I tried "smbtree -k" and I get "No kerberos support compiled in" Also I am unable 2 read existing FAT32 File system with my EMBEDDED DSL. The Other LIVE CD DSL can read as well as write on my existing FAT32 system Also I read that there is a SIS controller problem, which can be rectified with DMA cheat. However there are no options for cheat with the Embedded system. Can anyone suggest a site/doc where I can find info for DSL A site which is useful for a newbi who works on windows 2000 HELP Posted by dtf on Mar. 08 2006,14:18
If you have $20 to $25, Mike Weber's book is a good investment. http://spidertools.com/dsl_review.php

@Ankuryu ,documentation on DSL is scattered here and there, I blame you only partially. All issue you address have been discussed before. Use the seach facility in the forum. I have assembled a url so you can search for a keyword within the DSL and QEMU forum and the qemu-devel mailing list: < http://www.google.com/search?....=Search > |
