[12:04] well there should be more [12:04] dr_willis true .. that explains the hesitation of server system-admins to reinstall or upgrade.. anything breaks it is such a hassle to get everything back the exact way you configured it . [12:04] Seveas, i never really got to the bottom of it [12:04] Seveas, but someone else suggested grep lol [12:04] grep :D ..hahaha.. so what does grep server? [12:05] s/server/serve ..

[04:52] BrianG, you want the entire device, no partitions? windows doesn't like that [04:52] neoth: ok, let's try this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19656 [04:52] its a 512mb usb drive [04:52] BrianG, better name to use is: mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1 [04:52] BrianG, even on those windows makes a partition table and partitions [04:52] neoth: oh wait, i made a mistake [04:52] well i formated it in windows just now [04:52] so im sure its fine [04:53] aujordanh you also need that lo in line1 [04:53] i would like an ftp program that can have multiple connections to one ftp server, any ideas? [04:53] BrianG: if you type mk and hit tab twice it will dislay all the possible commands depending on file type you want also the apropos command like apropos fat [04:53] BrianG, should be, yes. I was just clearing up the confusion about it being easy to do in linux [04:53] sethk: why sda1? the device is sda isnt it?
