syslinux: possibly unsafe permissions for /tmp

syslinux: possibly unsafe permissions for /tmp

[Igor Gueths]

Hi all. I keep getting the error in the subject line whenever attempting
to put Syslinux onto the floppy. As a result, it refuses to write
ldlinux.sys. I have tried most if not all the viable combinations, and
Syslinux still complains. Anyone know what permissions Syslinux espect on
/tmp? I have not been able to determine this so far. Thanks!

May you code in the power of the source,
may the kernel, libraries, and utilities be with you,
throughout all distributions until the end of the epoch.

Permitions of /tmp should be 1777
i.e. world accessable sticky directory.

dependencies missing?

[Charles Crawford]

Hello all,

	I have been trying to install the zinf rpms and keep running into what I 
guess are libraries that are missing dependencies.  there are lib files and 
files that end with .so and I have no idea what the latter are.  I don't 
know where to get these files for installing.  Anyone else know?

Hi Charlie. Did you go to http://www.musicbrainz.org/download.html? Zinf
requires that library. And I think they have rpm's there too. Btw, .so
files are shared objects.

May you code in the power of the source,
may the kernel, libraries, and utilities be with you,
throughout all distributions until the end of the epoch.
