root can either be found on an IDE drive or a SCSI drive. Before Linux chooses where to find the root, it pokes around and determines what drivers to load and where to find the root. When Linux figures it out, the proper root is mounted and the boot continues...

Cryptoloop. For extra security when running Linux, the root plug module may be used. This module can be used to prevent a thief from running processes as the root user, since it blocks processes from running as root if a specific USB device is not present in...

ways that multiple WDS APs can be configured. Figure 10 shows a Star configuration, in which one AP maintains a WDS link to each of four remote APs, with each remote having a single reciprocal link back to the "root" (LAN connected) AP. Figure 10: WDS...
