Virtual Machine and NTFS
you give me a link to info website for hard drives bigger than 32 GB it can
be 1,000,000 GB all I care. I say to you to make one 32 GB partition on it with a FAT32 system partition partition partition partition partition partition partition partition partition Then Xcopy to the 32 GB partitionon the new 1,000,000 GB hard drive! We tell you all 32 GB partition for win98 We care not of the size of the Hard Drives Do you know you can only have one partition on a Hard Drive And one Extended on the same Hard Drive But you can have Log up to X Partition C:\ Extended Log1 D:\ Log 2 E:\ Log 3 F Log 4 G Log 5 H Log 6 I UP TO Log 23 x:\ "Sunny" wrote in message d.com... The 32Gb limit can easily be overcome : http://jacquesbron.com/blog/general/...under-windows/ |

I have the book size box and leaflet size manual to prove it. I think it sold for around $100 ;-/ |

I have read elsewhere that it will install and run on XP Home as well as Pro, but have never tried. That's what I thought. (Anyone else know?) VPC will run on XP Home, apparently with no problems, but is officially unsupported. The first list is what operating systems are "supported" to be run as a virtual system on the host. Other systems can be run....Win98, Linux, etc...they are just not "supported" , meaning you won't get any help or support for issues, there may not be Additions available for everything, or there may only be partial functionality of the unsupported virtual system. Yes, I thought so too (-:. [What's an "Addition" in this context?] VPC additions is a software package that runs as a service in the virtual OS, and allows for some host to guest integration. |

You should try XXcopy. It's really good. We tell you all 32 GB partition for win98 We care not of the size of the Hard Drives Do you know you can only have one partition on a Hard Drive I think you can have 4 primary partitions on a hard drive, or 3 primary partitions and one extended one. And one Extended on the same Hard Drive But you can have Log up to X Yes, I know that.

I think there is something slightly off, about the resolution setting, but I can't find any tool on that particular distro, to tell me what resolution is being used. The "xdpyinfo" tool is missing. As is "xrandr". You might open a terminal and try "xwininfo". Be sure some portion of your Linux desktop is visible and click on that when prompted to click on a window. The information will contain the correct width but the height doesn't take the panels (taskbars) into account. To get their heights you can xwininfo again and click on some unused area of each taskbar. |

The entire set of X tools are missing :-( That particular environment is dedicated to a fixed function, and the emphasis is on keeping the boot CD size to a minimum. So you don't get 700MB of goodies with it. It's got X for the desktop, but none of the usual tools. So no xwininfo or xeyes or xclock or the like. Paul |

Also, if xwininfo doesn't have any dependencies that aren't already there, you might be able to extract just that one file from the package and copy it to the VM or run it from a CD or flash drive. I just checked the size and the binary is only 23k on my system. |

There's bound to be some explanation in there, as to what it's up to. Paul |

And as Quirke says, under FAT you can have a mis-match between the file-size as recorded in the FAT vs the length of the file-chain, and for which is easily fixable. Only easily fixable if the file is not fragmented, or the second FAT has not been updated, otherwise you'll have to search the disk for any non-contiguous clusters. [snip] NTFS is more than journalling. There's the organizational structure or pattern as to how you store files and directories, and there's the event or transaction-monitoring and logging operations above that. You could theoretically have journalling performed on a FAT32 file structure. Microsoft is apparently considering it for their exFAT format. Not really transaction logging as in NTFS, but using the second FAT as the record to roll back to. http://www.patentgenius.com/patent/7613738.html |
