So, I ran rcconf again and got the following this time:

Code:

  [*] acpid                                                                            ↑   │    │

 [*] bootlogd                                                                         �-'   │    │   
 [*] bootmisc.sh                                                                      �-'   │    │   
 [*] checkfs.sh                                                                       �-'   │    │   
 [*] checkroot.sh                                                                     �-'   │    │   
 [*] console-screen.sh                                                                �-'   │    │  
 [*] cron                                                                             �-'   │    │   

 [*] denyhosts                                                                        �-'   │    │   
 [*] exim4                                                                            �-'   │    │ 
   [*] glibc.sh                                                                         �-'   │    │   
 [*] halt                                                                             �-'   │    │   

 [*] hostname.sh                                                                      �-'   │    │
 [*] hwclock.sh                                                                       �-'   │    │  
  [*] hwclockfirst.sh

ps aux | grep '[s]mbd'
output:
[CODE]root 6884 0.0 0.2 13916 4392 ? Ss Feb25 0:57 /usr/sbin/smbd -D
root 6954 0.0 0.0 12524 1000 ? S Feb25 0:00 /usr/sbin/smbd -D[/CODE

Would ps aux or ps ax by themselves be helpful?

Also, I burned the gentoo minimal x86 LiveCD files onto a CD; I burned the ISO, CONTENTS, DIGESTS, and ASC file, is that correct?

I have an old Dell Latitude D610 that I wanted to try the gentoo LiveCD out on first, but I can't seem to load the gnetoo OS. I checked the BIOS of the Dell and the CD does boot first according to order preference. When I start the machine, the CD drive makes a reasonable amount of noise, like its going to do something, and then simply boots Windows normally. Any ideas?

I simply wanted to practice. Is this faulty at some base level; as in, the file I burned won't work with Windows? I checked the laptop system and it is 32 bit.

rdiff-backup-fs

RDIFF-BACKUP-FS(1)					      General Commands Manual						RDIFF-BACKUP-FS(1)

NAME

       rdiff-backup-fs - Filesystem for accessing rdiff-backup archives.

SYNOPSIS

       rdiff-backup-fs <mount_point> <repository> [repositories ...] [-option ...]

DESCRIPTION

       rdiff-backup-fs is a filesystem in userspace that reads rdiff-backup archives and provides convenient access.

OPTIONS

       --debug <0-4>
	      Run rdiff-backup-fs in foreground with given verbosity of debug messages.

       -f, --full
	      Store information about all revisions in memory. CAUTION: this may take a lot of memory if your archive contains many revisions.

       -l, --last
	      Displays	files from the most recent increment as directories, each holding every version of the file. CAUTION: this stores informa-
	      tion about all revisions in memory and therefore may take a lot of memory if archive contains many revisions.

       -c <n>, --caching <n>
	      How many files retrieved from the rdiff-backup archive may be cached by filesystem. By default rdiff-backup-fs will cache up  to	10
	      files. If this switch is set to 0, no caching will be done.

       -r <n>, --revisions <n>
	      How many revisions should be stored in memory for on demand revision retrieval. By default rdiff-backup-fs will store up to 10 revi-
	      sions in memory.

       -d, --directory <path>
	      Set directory for directory with temporary files. By default rdiff-backup-fs uses /tmp.

       -v, --version
	      Print version of rdiff-backup-fs and exit.
