when OS start, it call Master Boot. Master Boot include Partition Entries.
Partition Entry has BootSector. And Boot Sector has system information and a [B]code [/B] to load OS into memory, right?
I want to ask that What structure of this code? what language make it?
And how to add one by myself?
In addition, when OS load itself into RAM, What file it will load?
Give me an example when DOS load into RAM (and maybe Windows too)
Thanks

i know that on linux it's the /boot/vmlinuz file that is the kernel, and that gets loaded into memory first...
i also know that windows nt/2k/xp/2k3 looks at boot.ini in your root (c:\) to see where to find the kernel, and that the ntldr file in your root is also used in the boot process... don't really know much more than that however...

Hi, my computer have 7GB of HDD drive. I run windows xp pro on the 4GB space. For the other 3GB I did not use it so I leave it as unpartition space. But now I want to install linux redhat 9.0 on the 3GB unpartition space. How should I do that? I also have a document about installing linux but the demonstration will take all of the disk space of the user. But what I want is how to cofigure the HDD, RAM drive... by manually. Can anyone could help me to solve this problem???

The header of your message and the contents are in conflict with each other. Which one is correct, do you want to install Linux in the unpartitioned space or on an existing Windows partition? Have you read the Red Hat Linux 9 installation guide, especially Appendix G?

Yes, that what I need. I have a magaizne about linux and tell every step to create the partition for linux (such as swap, root...) without affect to an existing winxp partition. But now I lost that magazine, so I don't know how to install it.

Is it good to install 2 OS on one partition?

In my opinion, NO. Because you will replace the folder Program Files on the second installation of the operating system. And there are many file that are replace by the latest one.

You know when you try to grab stuff from SourceSafe, first you need to be granted access to "srcsafe.ini" file. Sharing the file on local intranet can be done by configuring file share. What if you want to access file over unsecured connection/Internet?
Any pointer? Thanks.

You'd have to host it on a server on the Internet, with a fixed IP address or dynamic DNS registration, with the file sharing ports open, as a file share. This is a pretty bad idea.
I suggest you look into Virtual Private Networks, at adapters such as SourceOffSite[^], or replacement source control solutions such as Vault[^]. I'd recommend one of the latter two because Windows file sharing performance is pretty poor over a slow link.
No, I don't work for SourceGear, but I'm a satisfied user of Vault, which works great over HTTPS over the Internet (maximum speed 256Kbps because both ends are on ADSL with 256Kbps upload speed).

I have a CD with my OLD mail in OE 5. I am right now in Windows XP machine with OE 6.
I tried to import the old mails, and I dont see 'Outlook Express 5' in the import options....
Any idea / solution.. other than changing my PC???

I think you should try first.
1. In winxp create a test account and log on it.
2. Try to use Outlook Express 6 to import your message. If it is possible they do it at your account.

I have a question to you too, how do you backup your OE5 message on the CDROM?

1. Locate the ***.dbx files on your computer, where *** corresponds to the names of all of the message folders in OE.
2. Burn them to a CD.
Many months ago I was faced with the problem of recovering emails after reinstalling Windows. Thanks to a number of people here I was able to save them by first saving these files to another drive, then copying them back to the OE folder after the reinstallation. Deleting the Folders.dbx file caused OE6 to rebuild its index and all of my old emails magically reappeared.
Whether this technique will work (copying files) between two different versions of OE I don't know - the .dbx file format may have changed too much.

Yes, that is the techniqe that I use to back up my e-mail too. I suggest that don't copy directly to replace the .dbx file because this method doesn't work. Use an import wizard that design by outlook express instead.

In my opinion, OE5 message should import to any test machine with windows 2000 prof. fresh install because it has OE5. Then upgrade OE5 on the test machine to OE6 then back up the message again. This method could use your message in windows xp pro. with OE6.

What do you mean? It doesn't mean that you have to purchase software and new machine to do that. If your friend have a test machine for windows 2kpro then ask him/her to create user account for you and try to work as the above method.

I will take this as a last option, if I get anything else as a better option, I will have to try that first

Hi, I just learn something new from my teacher about lock the computer using the shortcut. The technique is create the schortcut from scratch then type the following command in the command textbox: rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation and the other technique to shutdown computer or restart computer. My question is: are there any document that will specify the argument of the command rundll32.exe user32.dll, for restart, shutdown, restart in MSDOS mode, restart in safe-mode, log off the user...? I want to do the above action but I don't how to do it because I don't know the argement that use to perform these above action.

Don't do that. Only call functions with rundll32 that were made to be called that way.
See this blog entry[^] and read the section "Rundll32.exe entry points"
