Take a look at an aerial phonecam view of life in my cube. This has been my 5th cube in the last 4 years as I recall, but fear not as I've laid down roots. Don't be fooled by the austere haze of the flickering flourescent lights... I'm surrounded by bountiful ammenities and sheer opulence.

To douse my excitement I sometimes have a look out my window at home through my webcam. No sir, no Segue scooters or plasma screens here. The longest walk is to the coffee machine, and I prefer to have Ananova or Ramona read my email to me.

This weekend I converted my principal home workstation to Fedora Core 2 Linux. I'd like to make an effort to abandon using Windows XP on the PC altogether, so I spent extra time setting up the workstation properly.Leaving Windows XP on /dev/hda1 as a dual boot, I prepared the to overcome a known issue with FC2 and dual boot scenarios. Having been bitten by this before on another machine, I was ready this time. Following the instructions here, I ran the Fedora Recue Disk (disk 5 of the iso set) and at the shell I ran the command "fdisk -l /dev/hda" to examine the geometry. You see, FC2 is known to alter the way Windows perceives the geometry and can leave you unable to boot Windows at all after installing FC2.
Noting the fdisk output, I jotted down "/dev/hda=4385,255,63".

Frequent ColdFusion mailing list contributor and Software Developer Tom Kitta has started a blog at http://www.tomkitta.com/blog/index.cfm, coming to you from Toronto, Canada. Tom's blogware of choice is currently is an updated version of CFXML_Blog 1.2.
