 Reinstall boot loader

LinuxIf for a reason, your linux boot loader does not function properly, or has gone because you reinstall windows ... all you need to do are the following:

1. Use rescue cd (usually Linux disk 1), and boot to rescue mode
2. # chroot /mnt/sysimage
3. # /sbin/grub-install /dev/hda (type "/sbin/lilo /dev/hda" if you want to use lilo as boot loader)
4. #exit
5. Reboot your system without the rescue CD

 Split a big file into smaller files

LinuxTo split a big files:

"split -b 1024k --verbose my.bin.tar.bz2 my.bin.tar.bz2. " Result: creating file `my.bin.tar.bz2.aa' creating file `my.bin.tar.bz2.ab' creating file `my.bin.tar.bz2.ac'

To combine the files back to a big file: "cat my.bin.tar.bz2.a* > my.bin.tar.bz2"
