lxnay wrote:Wow, thank you lindmik... I've seen your changes, but I've not time (ATM) to test those. Are they safe? Does split works correctly on your ext3 fs? If md5sum is the same, the file _IS_ the same, so, it works!. Please let me know !

Least I could do

It worked like a charm, at least because the filesize was divisible by 4 so all 4 splitted files were the same size.
It took a lot of time to run but it was on a 466 MHz Celeron

I also tested the disk (of course) and all was as it should be...

Tomorrow I'll publish RR4 2.60.3 with ISOLINUX CD boot loader. No more GRUB errors !!!

lxnay · Post by **lxnay** » Tue Oct 18, 2005 9:29 pm

Hey men! Please publish success stories too

!

Nice to hear about ISOLINUX loader, I was waiting for this.
This patch would be diff from 2.60 to 2.60.3 or from 2.60.2 to 2.60.3 (or from 2.60.2a)?
I suppose that it is diff from 2.60 to .3
Could you make also that diffs (2.60.2-2.60.3 and 2.60.2a-2.60.3), if it's not so hard for you?
It will be great.
Now I have only 2.60.2a.iso.

lxnay · Post by **lxnay** » Wed Oct 19, 2005 9:54 am

yes, xdelta will be for 2.60 and 2.60.2 (2.60.2a is 2.60.2)

Damn--I want this! However, does anyone know if SATA/SATA-II for DVD readers/writers is built in through enabling such in libata.h? It would be a waste for me and others to download the iso, burn the image and find that we can't boot the kernel and use it.

As I told you in the PM, RR4 might support your SATA DVD. You should tell me what SATA chipset you have

Added two FTP links for RR4 2.60 ! Wow ! Thanks to Marco d'Itri of linux.it

lxnay · Post by **lxnay** » Thu Oct 20, 2005 10:05 pm

2.60.3 out. Official announcement very soon. I'm still uploading 2.60.2 to 2.60.3

It will be available in 2 hours.

I have downloaded RR4 iso and burned it on to dvd. I have clicked on install on harddrive. I followed the process, assigning IP, hard drive space, and packages I want to build in make.conf. then Clicked Finish. My system has been sitting Idle for the last 3 hours with a window saying Preparing. I opened a virtual console and type mount and my harddrive wasn't even mounted. What do I need to do to install RR4?

Thanks

What version do you have ? A Plain 2.60? If so, please upgrade to 2.60.3 or at least to 2.60.2.

HecHacker1 · Post by **HecHacker1** » Fri Oct 21, 2005 7:53 pm

i'm getting the latest beta of azureus right now so I can download your live dvd. I really appreciate your work because it has saved me many times when something goes screwy with a new kernel and reiser4.

one question, does this have reiser4 1.0.5 support? I recently converted my reiser4 partition to that so I have been stuck using 2.6.14 kernels and they aren't all too stable.

anyways, i got lots of bandwidth (4MB/s up and down) and I want to help your torrent out.

Is the 2.60-to-2.60.3.tar.bz2 patch damaged? Tar reports "Unexpected EOF in archive" when I try to uncompress it. It could of course have been damaged when I downloaded it; the md5sum of my file is 11acdf505da048105318431aee3e1dea - what is the correct md5?

I downloaded 2.60.3. I left the preparing window up over night and it's still sitting there preparing.
