<0> max, should i be looking for anything in particular, it's on a different machine.
<0> ?
<1> just tell us what it says about /dev/hdb
<0> [M]ax, i don't see /dev/hdb in df man
<0> i only see /dev/hda3 and /dev/hda1 and udev,none, shm --
<0> when i type mount /dev/hdb i get mount: can't find /dev/hdb in /etc/fstab ?
<1> Logan5 try man mount
<1> and read how to use it
<1> ;)
<0> Man what!
<1> type
<1> man mount
<1> <enter>
<1> or
<1> <return>
<0> I don't even see /dev/hdb in there though



<0> Heh
<1> if its not in df, then its not mounted
<1> if its not mounted then you cannot unmount it
<0> I see
<0> SO I guess i'll mount /dev/hdb now
<0> Right, everytime I do that I get 'mount: can't find /dev/hdb in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab"
<0> in /etc/fstab i see /dev/hdb1
<0> [M]ax, Harsh
<2> even though I can hear sound, I often get "ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:819:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave" when trying to play some sounds. it seems to disable midi-sound. any ideas?
<1> Logan5 type
<1> man mount (<enter> or <return>)
<1> and look up the correct syntax for the command
<0> HAhah thanks
<1> it will not mount if it is incorrect
<0> why not just www.google.com
<0> Eh ? Google.com ? GET it
<1> i didnt say google
<1> i said read the man page for the correct syntax
<0> Right
<0> Thanks for that
<1> off the top of my head i dont know it, cause my head is in php land right now
<0> [M]ax, what would it mean if everytime i try to apply the filesystem mke2fs /dev/hdb1 i got /dev/hdb1 is apparently in use by teh system
<0> does it Have to be mounted?
<0> and if it won't mount?
<0> when i mount /dev/hdb1 i get mount: /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /srv busy
<0> then if i mount /srv /dev/hdb1 i get mount: /srv is not a block device
<3> turn it around
<3> mount /dev/whatever -t mount_type /target_dir
<0> P38 Mount type ?
<3> did you read the man page
<0> yes
<0> but whenever i mount /dev/hdb /srv i get mount: /dev/hdb already mounted or /srv busy
<0> in df i see nothing of /srv or /dev/hdb
<3> type mount
<0> i can't exactly paste my df however because it's on another machine with no gui or mouse
<0> ok
<0> i've done mount
<3> you use the command "mount" to determine what is mounted on the machine
<0> YEah I don't see /srv or /dev/hdb
<4> P38, you're a gentoo fellow, yea?
<3> yep
<0> Wow this ****s
<0> I can't....add my secondary hd
<4> Quick question, I'm following this guide http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Compile_a_Kernel_Manually, I've compiled the kernel and have done a make install, I'm wondering what I need to place in my grub.conf as my new initrd
<3> sure you can
<3> phisquare: why use initrd
<4> Not necessary?
<3> if you have compiled your kernel with what is necessary for your machine to boot, then you dont need it
<4> Well in that case, nevermind, heh
<3> logan5: does your new drive show up in dmesg when the machine boots
<4> I spend far to much time messing with linux
<4> geez
<4> too, even
<4> I've spent my whole spring break playing with FC5 and Gentoo now
<5> entertaining
<3> radiation sickness possible from 50 to 100 rem
<3> from 100 to 300, sickness likely, hair loss, severe blood changes, some death within 2-6 weeks
<3> 300 to 500 half die within 30 days
<3> 500+ it gets worse



<0> P38, i have 3 17", monitors and 1 19", will I get radiation sickness?
<0> P38, rebooting to check dmesg.
<5> just nuke the bastards
<3> logan5: it is improbable an leg/arm xray is 1 millirem and the monitor's output would be significantly less than that
<0> P38, so computer monitors are Harmless :D
<0> Gah, I saw hdb1 on startup
<3> we were watching a movie about a dirty bomb attack on london and my kid asked me about radiation levels
<3> ive been researching
<5> i saw that movie
<5> good movie
<4> ah f, now networking doesn't work
<3> it was a good movie
<4> fek fek fek
<4> I didn't hard change ****
<4> hardly
<3> phisquare: install the module for your nic
<0> Yeah I saw a sick movie about all these people who lost their hair and got really bad skin and stuff. It was cool
<5> awesome
<5> pukin all over too
<3> logan5: ***uming your hd is seen by the bios and the kernel.... it has to have a format that the os can mount and then you mount it
<5> i nuked my windows
<4> P38: I didn't change anything that had to do with networking, why would it stop working?
<3> you said you recompiled your kernel
<4> yeah
<3> what kernel were you using
<4> 2.6.15
<5> did you install the kernel?
<4> yes
<5> and reboot with it?
<4> yes
<5> burnt
<3> did you compile the modules and install them?
<4> networking modules?
<3> phisquare: the kernel modules
<4> I did a make clean modules modules_install bzImage
<6> Delicious DELICIOUS... I AM NORMAL*^%@$!#
<4> from the kernel source dir
<4> and a make install after that
<3> it sounds like the module for your nic was either not compiled or you dont have it in your modules.autoload.d for your kernel
<3> easy enough to test ... do you know what module your nic uses
<4> no :(
<3> phisquare: what type nic is it
<4> I originally used genkernel, and everything worked fine
<4> I dunno, how can I figure that out?
<4> It's onboard
<3> boot to your old kernel and do a lsmod
<5> lspci
<3> or lspci
<4> wait
<4> now it works
<4> wtf
<4> I'm so confused as to what is going on here
<3> keep it simple
<4> Okay, so when I original did genkernel, my ethernet was recognized as eth1
<3> your hardware works for one of two reasons
<4> Now, I switched to eth0, just to see if it'd work
<4> And it does
<3> either support is hard coded into your kernel
<3> or you have a module for it that is loaded after you boot
<4> No.
<4> No modules at all for it.
<3> listen
<3> im saying it has to be one of the two
<4> I think support is hard coded into the kernel for my NIC
<3> ok then you dont need a module and when the machine boots, the nic will show up in your dmesg
<4> Ethernet controller: Intel Coroporation 82801BA/BAM/CA/CAM Ethernet Controller
<4> I'm just confused as to why it switched from eth1 to eth0
<3> do you have 2 nics
<4> no
<5> sometimes, gentoo thinks 1394 firewire is an nic
<4> Kibozo: Yeah I was reading about that
<3> phisquare: if you only have one nic, then the os will ***ign it to eth0 unless you override it
<4> I think somehow it's confusing my firewire with my nic
<4> The livecd also chose eth1
