Under W2k or XP you can use convert.exe to change the filesystem from FAT to NTFS, i.e. after convently partioning your disk with qparted. This is easiely done in the shell with "convert". Now, mind that convert doesn't have a help switch. You must type "help convert" to see the ...

Corrections: Partimage is a semi-gui tool for simple use. Imaging a partition is self-explaining. I am afraid I have to add ntfs support now, and I also have to face to migrate my kubuntu either to investigate how to copy the /etc stuff, or how to use the rescue CD. So, chapter2 will be about that...

Kubuntu Installer is a P.O.S.

... or a little buggy to say the least... - no choices for installing GRUB on another drive than the installation target - partition resizing fails to work on another drive than HDA0 (access to Qparted from the setup is buggy) - Partition subsequently created with Qparted manually in EXT3 will be re...

That may well be. I'll try to solve it with Automatix. Trying to add a repository has already caused apt suicide. I could revive it though by deleting the offending line in the config file. FireFox however did Java immediately. I assume that Firefox has java already "onboard". As I seem to...

Configure AON DSL modem/router type Thomson Speedtouch 546

The AON firmware renders a lot of functions of the webinterface useless. Worst is that you are root without any PW protection once you enter the URL "speedtouch.lan". Assigning a PW doesn't help, neither does adding other users and changing the default user to one of these. Second thing th...
