Question about hooking up a peripheral hard drive
- MB: When the machine boots up, the hardware should sense the hard drive.
- BC: Do all operating systems come with a probing feature?
- MB: The hardware usually does; Linux and FreeBSD (with the exception of USF) are dynamically loaded.
Isolated Network News

- All the operating systems need to be repatched. Solaris 2.7 isn't on any of the machines.
- Demeter will rune Solaris 2.6
- Need to load Linux on the PC; will need to hook up a monitor to initially talk to the system.
