<0> hi, can someone point me on some documentation on /dev/root ?
<1> for them and all their customers
<0> *to
<1> and for their other customers who need seperate email and domain hosting
<1> brb
<2> eigma: likely the kernel documentation found in Documentation/ in your source tree
<2> korozion: we do that
<2> 1300 users, 40 domains
<2> 2 technical staff... 2 support calls per day :)
<1> heh nice
<1> I just ended up with this
<2> I need some sleep
<1> although
<1> I wonder why people pay me $30/month for simple hosting, when there are larger/better hosting plans for less
<2> lol
<2> man, we charge way more then that
<1> no really
<1> look at mt or dreamhost
<0> in an initrd environment, how can I access the root device specified on the kernel command-line?
<2> companies want people they can call over the phone, someone accountable
<2> eigma: ensure you have a /dev/root, and it will be there
<1> this is true
<0> Idle247: mknod b 4 0 ?
<1> funny part is
<2> eigma: not sure, I can check...
<1> I run an ISPs mail from an old server that used to sit in my room
<1> 1 hd and a crappy backup
<2> yea, I dont have it...
<1> no raid
<2> korozion: we have a 10k array...
<1> heh nice
<0> Idle247: yeah, actually I'd like to see where it's implemented (I expected something to that effect in include/major.h and also in drivers/block/*, but I can't find anything)
<2> 8x, 250gb scsi 15k's
<2> eigma: honestly not sure
<1> I guess when you're small
<2> ;)
<2> we're small enough
<1> funny thing is, it's just me
<1> on top of my work stuff
<2> we just pushed over 1 tape a night on backups
<2> 16 hours for a backup
<1> I resort to rsync backups to a remote servers
<1> -s
<2> well, my boss mostly does sales stuff
<1> best part is, the ISP does the sales for me
<2> our main server does rsync-like backups
<1> the sell the business accounts, and don't want to have to deal with the email/hosting **** anymore
<1> that and I do their email now too
<2> :)
<1> all because they let me put my server in their noc
<1> and I said "hey, look what I can do with a static IP"
<2> we have 255 of those
<1> indeed
<1> I can get a pile if I want
<1> and I get to throw another server in there
<1> dual proc this time
<1> more than triple the power this time
<2> :)
<2> we could technicly run our server, with all 250 consecutive connections, on a pentium pro...
<1> compaq dual p3 550's with a gig of ram
<2> its retarded how efficient our server is
<1> rather than the p3 500 with 384megs I have there now
<1> it's amazing what you can do with an old server and a good plan
<2> yep
<2> well, we mainly need the disk io
<2> 8 drives in a raid5 including a hot spare, 15k drives... its mental fast
<1> yeah, I was just gonna say; the biggest thing I worry about is disk failure
<2> yea, we dont :D
<2> usually
<2> we had the controller lock up when we left the disk software running
<2> java based...
<1> eww
<2> yea, it was retarded
<1> you also run windows ****
<2> so, we dont do that any more
<2> just as a base
<1> at least I'm my own boss ;)
<2> ***hat
<2> I'm getting a masters, so...
<2> ****it
<1> loo
<2> loo?
<1> loo
<2> skip to my loo?
<2> I'm going to bed
<1> I haven't finished school yet. Everyone I went to school with is still looking for a job
<2> :)
<1> I have a full time job in what I want to do, and have started my own company doing the same
<2> I'm way underpaid too
<1> school means bugger all to me
<2> like, _WAY_ underpaid
<2> yea, :P
<2> me and another guy are thinking about starting a company when we're done
<2> but, I may just stick with the company I am with
<1> I will
<2> we have a name in a vertical market
<1> because I know my stuff wont make me rich
<2> :)
