Comments:
<0> oogy2: which bootloader are you using?
<1> deadcat: apache used to ship a really simple web server load tester; it has since been replaced with a very complex distributed multi-threaded thing.
<2> it occurs in ubuntu during hotplug initialization
<2> grub
<3> So I have it unzipped and setting up and all is well until it requests 'Visual Studio .NET Professional 2003 - English DVD' and won't accept anything not named exactly that.
<4> pipeline: ya. (=
<0> oogy2: wait, which version of debian are you running? ubuntu?
<2> i tried both
<2> debian i was using etch
<2> ubuntu 6.06
<0> oogy2: what are you using now?
<4> Amarande: hardware. i guess bandwidth or cpu stuff
<2> dapper or whatever its called
<5> Anthro: Only other solution I can think of is to extarct the entire iso, make a new one with joliet/rockridge/whatever support you need to allow >32 character volume name, and set the volume name on creation.
<1> deadcat: Yeah, a slug won't die under load, it'll just time out under a very minimal load :)
<2> i;m using my laptop
<2> etch 2.4 works great
<6> my grub is spamming grub allover any ideas?
<7> what is etch 2.4?
<0> oogy2: which are you using now?
<2> etch with 2.4 kernel
<3> Ferret: I am willing to do that, and I tried a couple of times. What flags do I need to set on mkisofs to get that?
<4> pipeline: dont scare me. i plan to use this for my libapache-gallery-perl, php, cups, webcam. (=
<5> Anthro: Don't remember. go find out. :P
<2> i am using etch with the 2.4 kernel now
<7> oh
<7> does anyone here use initng and vmware?
<8> oogy2: How did you (attempt to) install 2.6?
<0> oogy2: did you use yaird or initramfs-tools to create the initrd for 2.6?
<2> i simply used apt-get to install the kernel image
<2> i have not tried to compile it
<2> knoppix also has a kernel panic in the same way
<0> oogy2: do you have yaird and/or initramfs-tools installed?
<9> yay! found a debian 3.1 install cd, thought I didn't have one...
<3> Ferret: I've been through the man page a few times, and tried a few combinations. That's why I'm here. I've exhausted other avenues (not counting an exhaustive search of all possible flag combinations).
<2> good question
<0> oogy2: what exactly is the error? "VFS: unable to mount root" or somehting?
<6> stew: my grub keeps spamming grub all over the screen. can you help with this.
<0> United: check /usr/share/doc/grub/* and see if there are any clues in there
<4> pipeline: so you have a slug?
<6> stew i cant get in there anymore :\ can you
<2> <0>Kernel panic: Fatal exception in interrupt In interrupt handler
<2> is what it tells me
<1> deadcat: No. I considered buying one, though.
<0> United: why can't you?
<7> what is a slug? I keep seeing all these newfangled words
<0> oogy2: try adding noapic to the kernel command line
<1> deadcat: abandoned that upon finding out how slow it is. If it helps any, you have your choice between both big and little endian debian ports. The official one is LE, of course, but there's something called "opendebian" that's BE.
<2> i did
<2> same result
<6> stew nm i am using rescue. is this a bug or just a configuration error on my part?
<0> United: i don't know
<4> pipeline: ya. i am testing it right now. will return it back to frys and get it from buy.com unless theres a cheaper one than that
<0> United: why can't you get to /usr/share/doc/grub though?
<8> oogy2: how about booting with noacpi?
<2> any other ideas?
<9> so... if I want to avoid downloading very much, perhaps the thing to do is just install a base system, and then once I've got that up, I can source this other computer over the network and install everything I want...
<2> dendrite: i have done that, same result unfortunately
<0> oogy2: pci=biosirq
<10> well i got my taste of e17
<2> i have not tried that
<11> not on sarge
<5> Anthro: Well, iso9660 defines a whole heap of text strings and IDs you can set, a lot of which are longer than 32 characters. Windows probably cheats and uses one of those.
<10> all that time and work and now im right back in fluxbox
<4> pipeline: whats the diff between big and little endian when it comes to the slug? i know that the Arm port is built for little endian.
<10> abrotman, yes i did
<12> syntax question, is the following correct?
<11> NO YOU DID NOT
<4> pipeline: is little endian that slow on the slug?
<10> i only upgraded somethings a while back
<10> and the libc6 was one
<11> godmachine81: if you can't understand that it's not sarge .. that's not my problem .. but it's not sarge
<5> Anthro: Try setting every single one(!) to something memorable, find them using vi/dd, then check those same locations against the real disk to see what they contain.
<3> Ferret: Quite likely, but I haven't found the right one. I tried -volset and that wasn't it.
<10> well its not 100% sarge
<12> gzip -dc filename | dd of=/dev/hda1
<8> Who would name a network appliance "slug" ??
<11> godmachine81: then it's not sarge
<10> but what i done would have worked if it was sarge
<1> deadcat: They're both horrendously slow. It's nicknamed the slug for a reason. I think there may be some performance enhancement to the UNIX ABI for BE? At least, if there's any improvmeent, it has nothing to do with the slug itself.
<11> godmachine81: no it wouldn't have
<2> hrm
<12> i am trying to restore a backup of a partition
<0> godmachine81: you shouldn't mix packages compiled for testing/unstable onto a unstable system, you should finish upgrading to testing, or reinstall stable
<3> Ferret: What do you see other than volid, volset, and hfs-volid?
<10> the only thing about e17 is that half the **** in it doesnt work
<5> Anthro: Woah. :)
<10> yes stew i know that
<3> Ferret: Those are the ones I've tried.
<8> Heh heh. It's sarge... Well, except for libc6... =8-o
<10> im not encouraging anyone to do that
<0> godmachine81: it seems to be what you are doing
<4> pipeline: oh. didnt know thats why it was named. (=... but you think it will be good if i run apache1.3 serving a web gallery?
<10> this system is just "a **** around with" box
<3> Ferret: Seriously, I'm willing to try, but I have run out of things to try.
<10> my other machine runs etch
<10> and no mixing of anything on it
<8> "My other machine runs etch" would be a good bumper sticker...
<10> this one was going to run etch until i upgraded half the packages and then it ****ed up
<2> so any other suggestions for me? i am sitting at my debian testing machine.. should i try to reinstall kernel-image-2.6whateveritisnow and try more boot command lines? or should i try compiling a kernel?
<10> cuz the cpu doesnt work on newer kernels for some reason
<11> dendrite: maybe "unstable" would be better?
<10> some kind of amd related ****
<8> abrotman: :-)
<10> its an old proc tho but the way i rigged it up it works
<12> guys i going crazy here .. please heeeelppp
<12> is the syntax correct? gzip -dc filename | dd of=/dev/hda1
<11> no
<5> Anthro: application_id publisher_id preparer_id volid ID
<5> Anthro: search man page :p
<12> i have to study both gzip and dd
<12> and i have to give this thing back
<12> tomorrow morning
<7> 506 packages not upgraded scares me
<8> genti: No, and it looks like you're about a half a click away from hosing /dev/hda1.
<5> genti, you gzipped the contents of your block device?
<12> yes
<12> i used before
<5> Is it a big file?
<12> yes, lik 30 GB
<12> or so
<5> good
<1> deadcat: very slowly, sure :P
<5> Are you 100% sure /dev/hda1 contains nothing of value?
<12> yes
<1> deadcat: it's cool because it's small and cheap, fast or not :)
<12> i had a problem with the partition and before trying to correct it
<12> i did a backup
<5> genti: `gzcat filename > /dev/hda1` should work
<12> needless to say i did not work
<4> pipeline: ya. thats what i am thinking. but i am planning to use it to replace the stuff i do on my desktop so i can turn it off at night (=
<12> let me try it
<12> just a sec
<5> genti: still there? Got one thing to note
<5> genti: Anything of value on the entirety of /dev/hda?
<5> </paranoia>
<8> Ferret: It's a bit unnerving, tossing data around like that. :-)
<5> You're telling me. :P
<5> Personally, when I'm doing a backup... I care about files. And linux has this really neat utility for copying files, you may have heard of it
<5> It's called cp
<8> Ferret: Yeah, but cp is so 'last millennium'...
<5> yeah, I know!
<13> tar
<11> cow
<13> the thing that's neat tho.. is that if you try to copy a file that's open by a process it still lets you
<5> Who cares about the advantages that you don't need easy-to-mistake dd lines, you can change the filesystem and partition size, etc...
<4> pipeline: i just ssh'ed into a school 400mhz box. its pretty fast.... its running apache and all kind of junks.
<12> Ferret, i had to do some mounting but i do not think i have gzcat installed
<12> i am using a knoppix dvd
<1> deadcat: heh, but the slug is not a typical machine :)
<5> genti: It may be called zcat. It's ... hang on, let me check what it really is.
