Hello

Somebody know how to resolve GRUB error 18 ? I tried install Novell Suse 10. First CD boot with no problems. After install 1 CD I must reboot. Next when linux try to boot show this error. I found some info : that is "partition problem" but I'm novice in using Linux system Sad

Hello Slava,

What type of Linux you prefer for small server (local net files, internet gate). That must need poor hardware configuration :

4 x Pentium Pro 200/512
768 MB SDRAM
2 x 4,3 GB (mirror) so only 4,3 available
VGA integrated
CDROM

Suse 10 is to much for this server I think but I don't know exactly.

The best choice would of course be Slackware, but you need a vast knowledge of the OS to configure the server properly.
FreeBSD would be great too Wink

But anyway, it's Linux. You can configure everything under this same SuSE 10 and then disable the X server (graphical interface) at all, so that it boots into console and just does it's job.
Code:

slava@linux:~# joe /etc/inittab

# The default runlevel is defined here
id:5:initdefault:

Change "5" into "3" and press CTRL+K X. You will set the runlevel to console only.
