Finally started with a blog to post my projects so that I can have a log of my screw ups and get help from people.

Right now my project is to install linux on my pc, slackware 10. ah! that would be easy you say. But what if I say I have to install it on raid 0(striping) on ITE 8212f controller without actuallly loosing the data on other partitions and espetially without a working linux environment. Now thats’ a chicken and egg problem. I won’t have an up and running linux unless I have the drivers for raid and I can’t compile the drivers without working linux.

The big idea on my mind is linux on virtual mechine(b4 I 4gt, thanks kousik). shall let you know aout it in short while. my dial up is way too slow to post regular updates. So, I’ll post ‘em when ever my net connects and stays live for a while.
