<howto> hi yo~
<qwarlock> hey guys
<joe66> hello does anyone know if there is a maximum amount of files i can have on a folder or partition
<joe66> ?
<joe66> i have 25000 spam email on folder and i am wondering how many can i have
<bloofar> joe66: what filesystem? and they're called directories, not folders
<joe66> i think is ext3
<joe66> i should be ok, i just went to wikipedia and it looks liek it is something like 2 to the 23
<Lopa> I have a bug with an ext2 fs. it happened after I deleted a large file (about 350MB) and it seemed the used space was NOT freed (checked with df -h). and now I cannot umount it, it says its used. I'd like to run fsck.ext2 but I cant since it's mounted.. any idea?
<bloofar> joe66: no, it's the number of bytes / 2**13
<bloofar> Lopa: run lsof to see what's still got a file open
<somae> I keep getting the messgae from "mount" mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
<somae> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
<Lopa> there's nothing using the fs..
<Lopa> nothing in dmesg too
<bloofar> Lopa: umm... /cdrom?
<somae> the cd is a rw and there's nothing on it
<joe66> is there something wront with creating just one partition?
<bloofar> somae: you need to have packet writing support enabled in the kernel to do multisession writes on a cdrw. and it doesn't work all that great
<bloofar> joe66: need more info.. that's like saying 'is there something wrong with painting something green?'
<joe66> i mean just mounting the whole disk to /
<bloofar> joe66: as long as its a modern bios, that shouldn't be a problem. how large?
<joe66> if i only have on disk
<joe66> 80gb
<bloofar> nah should be fine
<Trengo> Lopa i had that prob once, turns up it was a tail running on the file
<joe66> sorry maybe 500gb
<Lopa> how can i check?
<Lopa> maybe its just just fs bug
<bloofar> Lopa: lsof | grep <filesystem> i highly doubt its a bug with ext2.
<Lopa> lsfo is not using it i tried
<bloofar> lsof shows open files.
<bloofar> joe66: should be ok.
<joe66> i guess ill put it all in one partition and if it does not boot i split it
<joe66> thanks
<joe66> makes me feel good, even if it does not work
<A^C^E> i have a linux server with static ip, and i have my windows machine at home with my dynamic ip, i wanna surf from my windows machine using the server's static ip address.. i guess i need to install a web proxy server on the linux machine, any recommendations of a simple one?
<A^C^E> and hey :P
<sj7trunks> A^C^E squid.
<Trengo> they left
<sj7trunks> hey
<sj7trunks> no harm in trying
<Trengo> wow
<Trengo> karlmarx really was here
<Trengo> perhaps juliuscaesar will join us later?
<smka> can tivo record 2 channels the same time?
<bougyman> some can
<smka> how to list more details in atq?
<noct> Is there a way to load an MBR, but not actually boot whats on the partition table with GRUB?
<tonicxt> Anyone here use 3ddesktop?
<howto> negative
<tonicxt> Not sure what you are getting at noct
<tonicxt> If grub is installed in the MBR, then by definition of loading the MBR, grub will get booted.
<Qwell> he wants to chainload a bootloader
<Qwell> I ***ume
<tonicxt> hmm
