How to: Mount an ISO image under Linux

May 15th, 2010 cw No comments

Procedure to mount ISO images under Linux
1) You must login as a root user
2) Create the directory i.e. mount point:
# mkdir -p /mnt/temp_disk1
3) Use mount command to mount iso file called disk1.iso with loop option:
# mount -o loop disk1.iso /mnt/temp_disk1

Now you should be able to access all the files on that ISO image. Please note, you have to provide full path to iso image, not just iso image alone.

IPAD from Apple

April 5th, 2010 cw No comments

Here is my first impression of Apple’s latest gadget iPad. Well, I am a little disappointed to be honest with you. I am waiting for my iPad 3G which will be released at the end of this month, but I got an opportunity to play with Wi-Fi model for now. I do not want to say bad things about Apple and what they did release, and I am not trying to convince you not to buy it. I am just trying to say that I was disappointed when I got a chance to play with it. So why was I disappointed? Well, this device is nothing else other than iPod Touch but bigger and heavier. I was looking for iTouch with 3g, which was my dream, so when Apple announced iPad I was excited and I wanted to get it so much. All I wanted was to have iPhone without voice but with data plan, where I could access internet at anywhere at any time. So I was so eager to get my hands on this iPad. What a bummer when I did see old games from iTouch on iPad. That magnification x2 or small display at x1 resolution seriously blows. Yes, I know new applications will be coming out and they will take advantage of the new resolution but that just was my experience, half ass work on Apple’s side. Not prepared for anything, they just wanted to release it, make tons in profits and don’t care about anything else… Its heavy, playing for 10-15 minutes made my hands tired, imagine playing for hours? No camera, no flash video… I am feeling like Apple is trying to rip people off by repackaging iPod iTouch into new case, putting extra battery (singe it has two and much bigger, but then it needs more power since its bigger device.). Ok, it has faster CPU, well with this display they need it, so it’s not so much comparable… Well, I am just disappointed…

My new FiOS TV

January 15th, 2010 cw No comments

FiOS TV is great, tv quality is amazing, no NY1 channel but hey who cares, it is just new channel, I was not watching it that much anyway. I get much more programs on FiOS than I was getting on my Time Warner cable receiver. Just so many positive sides. Only negative aspect is that when I did order my card for my TV it did not work. Sales person at Verizon FiOS told me that getting DVR I will be able to see all recordings everywhere. So I asked if I get this cable card that I will be able to do the same? She responded that yes. Which was not true, I was unable to see programs that I recorded with my main box on my cable card. Also that cable card was such a crap, after an hour it did stop working, called tech support at midnight, no one was picking up (Verizon claims that they have 24/7 support), cant imaging that they had such high volume of customers calling. Anyway then I called at 1am, got someone on line, did reset my card, got some programs but they had to reprogram my card. In the morning it was broken again. Then I called at 6am and I got someone. Resolved problem again by resetting my card, and they pushed programming again to that card. Sucks, so I requested to just get a new HD receiver. Tech come over replaced it and everything is working ever since. So small thing, those cards are not to advanced therefore not that great to have them unfortunately.
