Mounting multiple img files as single loop device Might be able to do it with device mapper too, but the above is easier. |

Why is grep -o -w not giving me the expected output on Mac OS X? Works for me too with GNU grep 2.5.3 on Linux. On OS X 10.5.8 (GNU grep 2.5.1) I can confirm that it does not work. |

smitty like demo sites? eh... it can. The "VM" is just called an "LPAR" (logical partition), that's all. Oh, and it runs on IBM hardware, not x86 laptops :) |

Is it worth using vdmfec for backups to external SATA/IDE hard drives? Another similar tool: dvdisaster.net/en |

Why do unix-heads say “minus”? Yes, except using -r on a file is silly and especially along with -f is dangerous if you make a mistake. e.g. rm -rf /bin/ nessus-fetch.rc. Oops! |

how to type “smart quotes” (U+201C, U+201D) Would be a pain if you had to keep holding them for the whole thing :) I'm sure I've seen documentation that mentioned my way, but I have no idea where I saw it. |

how to type “smart quotes” (U+201C, U+201D) You only have to hold down ctrl+shift while typing the u. After that you can let go of ctrl and shift and type 201c followed by a space. |

vim search around line breaks You might want hello\_s\+world if there could be more than one whitespace character between them, of course. |

Reroute one URL A proxy is probably the easiest way to do this and it could be run on your machine, i.e. it needn't be external. /etc/hosts works because it just affects name resolution, but what you want to do is at a higher level and therefore more difficult. Perhaps you could set up a reverse proxy for website.com (on your machine) and then add website.com in /etc/hosts pointing at 127.0.0.1. Then configure the proxy to know where the real website.com is and to rewrite page1 to page2? |

Reroute one URL Please clarify "on a third party server only on my machine". Do you mean that you want to fool your machine (and only your machine) into retrieving page2 when you ask for page1? I assume by "third party server" you mean it is one you do not have control over. EDIT: Never mind, your comment clarifies this. Didn't see it before posting. |

Kernel segmentation fault (core dumped), how to diagnose? Could also be bad disk, but RAM is more likely. Power supply could also cause problems. |

Can I install Linux on Ankya 7802L 266MHz 128MB 2GB laptop? It seems to have NAND flash rather than a hard drive. Sounds more like a smart phone or ADSL router (with screen and keyboard, of course) than a PC. Something like OpenWrt might be worth a try if it's possible to get a serial console or JTAG cable hooked up. |

Can I install Linux on Ankya 7802L 266MHz 128MB 2GB laptop? You would probably need to approach this more like an ADSL router or smart phone than a PC. The board probably has a serial interface and almost definitely has a JTAG interface. So it's likely possible, but probably not just a matter of booting via USB or PXE/tftp. Then again, tftp boot it worth a try. If you can get a serial console hooked up (assuming it has one) you will likely be able to get more useful information. |
