• Boot failure on installation from a burned iso image

  - by jdamae

  I'm encountering boot failure while trying to install a Linux distro from a CD. I'm using an older PC; here are its specs: HP Pavilion a255c 2.66GHz CPU, 512MB RAM with a BIOS revision of 6/30/2003 I reclaimed an older drive (Seagate ST340810A) that seems to be working, as it's recognized in the BIOS (auto-detected). So this is not the original HDD, but a replacement. I downloaded a mini.iso of Ubuntu 10.10 that I want to install, and burned the image to a CD for install. My boot sequence is: First Boot Device [CDROM]. I disabled devices 2-4 so I can just force it to read first from the CD-ROM. This old PC also has a separate CD writer which is a Sec.Slave. The Sec.Master is the Toshiba DVD/ROM DSM-171 drive where I placed the burned Linux CD. With these settings I cannot get it to boot. I get the message "DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER" when I start the pc with the cd (burned iso image). Would I be able to boot off a usb flash drive? Would that work?

• What's a good Linux distro for an older PC?

  - by jdamae

  I'm new to Linux and I am interested in installing it on an older computer I have. I want to set a web server up, and install PHP and Perl on it. My PC is an older HP Pavilion a255c, with an Intel Pentium 4 processor and 512 MB of RAM. I will probably add some more memory later. This PC is more like a sandbox than anything, but I would like to get started quickly with the OS. Is there a particular flavor of Linux I would need to download because I have an old computer? I was thinking about Ubuntu, but I'm not sure what version to go with.

• windows - batch moving files to another folder/directory

  - by jdamae

  I am getting an error message to the effect of unable to move files to a single file. I am not trying to do this. What I am trying to do is move files from one folder to another folder (staging) and then deleting the original folder. If you can show me a better way to do this since I am not doing this correctly. Thank you. Here is my .cmd file: Y: move "Y:\ABC_files\*.js" "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\ABC_Stage\ABC_files\" move "Y:\ABC_files\*.css" "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\ABC_Stage\ABC_files\" move "Y:\ABC_files\*.png" "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\ABC_Stage\ABC_files\" move "Y:\ABC_files\*.htm" "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\ABC_Stage\ABC_files\" move "Y:\ABC_files\*.gif" "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\ABC_Stage\ABC_files\" move "Y:\ABC.htm "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\ABC_Stage\" rmdir "Y:\ABC_files" C:\"Program Files"\"App X"\App-IDE.exe -r ABC4.run

• help merging perl code routines together for file processing

  - by jdamae

  I need some perl help in putting these (2) processes/code to work together. I was able to get them working individually to test, but I need help bringing them together especially with using the loop constructs. I'm not sure if I should go with foreach..anyways the code is below. Also, any best practices would be great too as I'm learning this language. Thanks for your help. Here's the process flow I am looking for: -read a directory -look for a particular file -use the file name to strip out some key information to create a newly processed file -process the input file -create the newly processed file for each input file read (if i read in 10, I create 10 new files) Sample Recs: col1,col2,col3,col4,col5 [email protected],[email protected],8,2009-09-24 21:00:46,1 [email protected],[email protected],16,2007-08-18 22:53:12,33 [email protected],[email protected],16,2007-08-18 23:41:23,33 Here's my test code: Target Filetype: `/backups/test/foo101.name.aue-foo_p002.20110124.csv` Part 1: my $target_dir = "/backups/test/"; opendir my $dh, $target_dir or die "can't opendir $target_dir: $!"; while (defined(my $file = readdir($dh))) { next if ($file =~ /^\.+$/); #Get filename attributes if ($file =~ /^foo(\d{3})\.name\.(\w{3})-foo_p(\d{1,4})\.\d+.csv$/) { print "$1\n"; print "$2\n"; print "$3\n"; } print "$file\n"; } Part 2: use strict; use Digest::MD5 qw(md5_hex); #Create new file open (NEWFILE, ">/backups/processed/foo$1.name.$2-foo_p$3.out") || die "cannot create file"; my $data = ''; my $line1 = <>; chomp $line1; my @heading = split /,/, $line1; my ($sep1, $sep2, $eorec) = ( "^A", "^E", "^D"); while (<>) { my $digest = md5_hex($data); chomp; my (@values) = split /,/; my $extra = "__mykey__$sep1$digest$sep2" ; $extra .= "$heading[$_]$sep1$values[$_]$sep2" for (0..scalar(@values)); $data .= "$extra$eorec"; print NEWFILE "$data"; } #print $data; close (NEWFILE);

• making html table columns optionally sortable

  - by jdamae

  I have an html table that is populated from a text file, formatted and semi colon separated. I would like the user to have the option of sorting alphabetically with either of the columns when clicking on the column name (header). How do I do this in php?? Or is there another way of doing this? Thanks for your help. Sample raw data/input looks like this: TYPE=abc;PART=georgetown;FILE=goog_abc.dat.2010122211.gz TYPE=xyz;PART=ucny;FILE=aol_xyz.dat.2010122209.gz Php code for table: $lines = preg_split('~\s*[\r\n]+\s*~', file_get_contents('/temp/tab.txt')); foreach($lines as $i => $line) { $pairs = explode(';', $line); foreach($pairs as $pair) { list($column, $value) = explode('=', $pair, 2); $columns[$column] = true; $rows[$i][$column] = $value; } } $columns = array_keys($columns); echo '<table><thead><tr>'; foreach($columns as $column) { echo '<th>'.$column.'</th>'; } echo '</tr></thead><tbody>'; foreach ($rows as $row) { echo '<tr>'; foreach($columns as $column){ echo '<td>'.$row[$column].'</td>'; } echo '</tr>'; } echo '</tbody></table>';
