seriously, I've used colinux to boot my gentoo live partition (as well as used gentoo to create many a virtual disk for colinux) and had little to no problem. I'm still working on devfs stuff to have it create /dev/{s,h}d[a-h][0-8] rather than /dev/cobd[0-n], but I'm lazy.

If you want to be able to copy / paste between your coLinux session and Windows:
- run colinux-daemon.exe
- close the main terminal after it boots up completely
- run colinux-console-nt.exe
- right click on the title bar, click properties
- under options, check the 'quickedit mode' box
- click ok, select 'save properties ...', click ok
Now you can paste into the terminal with right-click. You can select text in the terminal by highlighting it, and hitting enter will put in the buffer.

I think I'm missing something =(
I've tried installing from scratch 4 times assuming that I missed a step. I can't have missed the same step in the config 4 times....arrgh!
I made the <> change to the config. I made the change to the adapter name, bridged networking looks ok in Windows. When I "boot" the colinux box windows shows the TAP adapter and the Bridged connection as active. I have internet access from the windows box.
When I boot the colinux box I eth0 fails to come up and I get the following error message:
Bringing eth0 up...
Failed to bring eth0 up
ERROR: Problem starting needed services.
"netmount" was not started.
Digging through the normal Gentoo fourms I find info saying that the error relates to gentoo not having a driver for the NIC.
I don't understand how that could be the case when we are relying on a psydo-adapter. You guys haven't had any trouble relating to netmount and your using the same linux driver that I am (the default), right?
Does anyone have any ideas on what I'm missing?
Thanks!

Make sure in your colinux config xml the name parameter of your network adapter matches the actual name of the TAP adapter ( at least for winpcap bridging that was important ).
Also try disable the TAP and give winpap approach a try, but be warned, it doesn't work with wireless adapters. |

network adapter name matches the TAP name. When I look through the logs atfer firing up the .exe I get the following:
conet-daemon: searching TAP "Local Area Connection 3"
conet-daemon: scanned device "Local Area Connection 3"
conet-daemon: opening TAP: "Local Area Connection 3"
Enabling TAP-Win32...
I read in one of the erilier posts that it needed changed from TAP to TAP 32, but when I made that changeit would error out, so playing arround with it I relized that the deamon didn't bomb out if I changes it to "Local Area Connection 3"
The WinPcap way isn't an option for me as I am using a Orinco wireless card to bridge the connection from colinux to the outside world. =( _________________ ========================================================

I'm wondering if I have a different problem than I origianlly thought I had...
I noticed that when the console fires up and shows the system booting that it comes up with
modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/2.4.26-co-0.6.1/modules.dep (no such file or directory)
I'm thinking now that if it is having trouble loading a module, that could very well explain why it is having trouble loading the network.
Is this a problem caused by my config or are you guys having the same error or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Any idea on how to work arround this?
Thanks!

to be honest
i dont even get the network connection up?
i have used co linux before, but i used it before i found the howtoo
it never worked well
but then
i got the network connection to at last show up in my network connections..
i install the TAP driver, and nothing.
i cant even get to bridge the connections because it doesnt show up.
when i look in network devices, it shows it
there are no problems with it (as it seems, resources are fine, irq's are ok)
but it doesnt seem to show up in networkconnections.
help me plz!
i use sp2
i dont know if thats a problem _________________ "wa ma tawfiqi illah billah"

Don't try to start X, your system might hang (mine does!)
I was allready very fond of User Mode Linux... this is essentially the same: a patched linux kernel to run in usermode (of windows).
I'm running a gentoo system in it on my laptop. I have a great mix of linux & mircosoft software available now! (I need some tools like Visio for university courses... helas). I can switch over very transparently now... without a hurry! My laptop is the last box to go _________________ Grt, Erik

mahir: I was stumped for hours because no matter what I did I couldn't find the TAP connection under network connections ( I was running SP2 also). then I read the documentation on the TAP driver web site and said it currently won't show up if your running SP2 so I uninstalled SP2 and now its working!

Great... I hope they intend to fix this rather blatant bug soon. How far off is SP2 final? |

A recent news story, found on winbeta.org
Quote: | According to a reliable source, Windows XP Service Pack 2 has just been pushed back a bit further than originally expected. These delays will effect both the second Release Candidate along with the Release To Manufacturing/Release to Web.
The following are the new expected delivery dates:
RC2 - May 26th, 2004 (previous date was May 12th, 2004)
RTM - July 21st, 2004 (previous date was June 23rd, 2004) |

I got "no space left on device" when I do emerge --update world.
The "df" shows" /dev/cobd0 is full.
Is there anyway that we can increase the size of cobd0 ?
Thanks.

Code: | <colinux>
<block_device index="0" path="\DosDevices\e:\gentoo-i586-ext3-2g-deluxe" enabled="true"/>
<bootparams>root=/dev/cobd0</bootparams>
<image path="vmlinux"/>
<memory size="128"/>
<network index="0" type="tap" name="TAP"/>
</colinux> |

Perhaps because i sat it up before installing sp2 rc1 |
