Vector Linux About VECTOR LINUX VECTORLINUX is a small, fast, Intel Linux operating system based on one of the original Linux distributions, Slackware. Slackware, the true 'Unix' of Linux distributions is an enormously popular system used by major corporations, universities and home users. It's popularity stems from the fact that it is a robust, versatile and almost unbreakable system. Slackware is however, also known to be about as user friendly as a coiled rattlesnake. Thats where Vector Linux comes in. We have produced a bloat free, easy to install, configure and maintain Slackware system that is second to none. The average user can have a fully functional Slackware Linux system up in as little as 15 minutes with the security of knowing their operating system was built on a rock solid foundation.

69.	Inode density during partitioning "The INODE density gives the average size of a file on a particular partition. The number of inodes determines how many files can be created on a given partition. If this number is too small, it can happen that a partition seems to be full although there are still some blocks left. Eg, if you choose 4096 bytes pre inode, it means that onb average you expect each file to have a size of 4KB. Imagine you put only small files(1KB) on this partition, you will only be able to use a quarter of your HD since the partition will seem to be "full"." URL: http://www.balista.com/njp/dualboottutorial.htm
70.	ext4 file systems ext4, which uses two disk partitions to store its data. One partition is used exclusively for directory-related information, and one partition for ordinary files. The file system is developed as a modification of the Linux-ubiquitous ext2 file system. The aim is to benefit from: (1) parallelism in the access to the two partitions, if they are stored on disks with separate controllers; (2) simplified layout policies enhanced to favor access patterns specific for each type of file.

75.	Linux ext3 FAQ Ext3 is a journaling filesystem developed by Stephen Tweedie. It is compatible to ext2 filesystems; actually you can look at it as an ext2 filesystem with a journal file. The journaling capability means no more waiting for fsck's or worrying about metadata corruption. What is most noticeable is that you can switch back and forth between ext2 and ext3 on a partition without any problem: it is just a matter of giving the mount command the right filesystem type.

Vi command reference The vi is a text editor. It is small, powerful, and standard on most UNIX systems. The vi often frustrates new users with a unique distinction between its two modes: Command Mode and Insert/Overtype Mode. This distinction, although difficult to become accustomed to for many users, provides great power and ability to the editor. Insert/Overtype Mode is designed for inserting text only. All text manipulations and cursor moving should be done from with in Command Mode. URL: http://www.cis.udel.edu/~totten/vi/

This method is temporary and not guaranteed to work in the future though, and you will not be able to unload the sound drivers without issuing the same command with bs=3 instead of bs=2 first."
