chroot debian environment on a Red Hat system

http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch-preparing.en.html#s-linux-upgrade

I didn't write the HOWTO, but href="http://kmself.home.netcom.com/Linux/FAQs/DebianChrootInstall.html">
http://kmself.home.netcom.com/Linux/FAQs/DebianChrootInstall.html
is nice description on how to do it.

Using TuxTime.dk to track uptime

The folks at tuxtime.dk have put
together a website and tools to let powergeeks compete for the longest
uptimes. I'm almost in the top 50 thanks to old i-zimbra!


They also have these swell dynamically generated banners


  • src="http://tuxtime.dk/cgi-bin/uptime.pl?computerid=32612&image=006"
    alt="homebrew uptime"> homebrew (new Deb
    ian woody system, new home web/file/mail server)


  • lt="i-zimbra uptime">
    i-zimbra (old whitebox P200/64Mb Red Hat 7.1 system, former home web/file serve
    r)

  • lt="elephanttalk (laptop) uptime">

    W2k)
