development blog for the wicked stuff we encounter

The other day I tried to create an ISO under Ubuntu, finally I found out how: mkisofs --cap -o myVolume.iso /home/balint/archive With cdrecord, you can write it to disk, and if you want to eject the disk (as i did with my slot-loader drive): cdrecord -eject myVolume.iso

I took some time on the Easter-weekend, and redesigned the blog css to be similar to the skaelede.hu main page. After some tweeking, it was working superb on all OS X browsers, but when i watched the site under Windows, IE simply got mad from the semi-transparent alpha-blending which i use on the homepage as well - without error: but here it simply ate up all CPU, and you were forced to quit the browser. A big sorry to everyone who saw this error :D

If you ever found yourself sitting in front of a dead Hackintosh system (for example another operating system's boot loader invaded it's Master Boot Record (MBR) like Linux's GRUB, and keeps telling like: Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format.), and would like to use it in it's original way, follow the steps below: 1) get yourself a 10.4.8 bootable (Intel) DVD 2) boot from it and press F8, and type -s to enter single user mode 3)  type: fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0 flag 2 update write quit reboot
