<0> uh I think I did a mistake
<1> too bad
<0> installed openbsd on my notebook
<2> Ganz ohne Zollmarke.
<2> Da werd ick doch zum hackbyte!
<2> ECHAN, sorry
<3> gn
<4> u2
<5> part
<5> join gentoopl
<6> :)
<5> ups
<6> :D
<6> that went smooth ;)
<4> hi all
<7> moin

<8> is it possible to somehow mount /etc dir writable while all others are readonly
<9> sure
<8> how?
<9> mount -o rw /etc
<9> it will remount read-write
<8> it says it can't find /etc in fstab
<9> then use full device path
<8> you mean /dev/hda1/etc ?
<9> no /dev/hdaX /etc
<8> that actually worked
<8> thanks :)
<9> yw =)
<8> could i do that at boot in fstab also?
<8> first mount /dev/hda1 / as ro
<8> and then mount /dev/hda1 /etc as rw
<9> sure
<8> oki
<9> just put 'rw' behind /etc
<8> yeah
<9> and ro behiond /
<8> like this: /dev/hda1 ext2 /etc ro 0 0 ?
<9> no rw
<8> yeah rw
<8> pardon :)
<9> O=)
<10> you have /etc in /dev/hda1?
<8> yeah
<8> why? :)
<10> `ViSiON`: i just wonder how your system booted if /etc is not mentioned in fstab
<8> well
<8> it's part of the root partition
<8> this: /dev/hda1 ext2 / auto 0 0
<10> so when you mount it to /etc you will have /etc/etc/fstab?
<8> i'm not really sure what that will do
<8> what i want to do is to have everything else except /etc readonly
<10> `ViSiON`: why?
<8> uh it doesn't work
<8> i tried writing to etc and it says it's readonly
<8> well
<8> i've got gentoo instaled on flash hdd
<11> `ViSiON`, Is this for system security or what?
<11> Oh yeah.
<8> and i don't want too much of writing to it
<11> That answered it.
<8> :)
<8> hmmm
<8> it doesn't work :/
<8> any ideas?
<8> i did: /dev/hda1 ext2 / ro 0 0 and /dev/hda1 ext2 /etc rw 0 0
<11> Another way of making a usb-bootable linux is to make it load itself to a ramdisk during bootup.
<11> That way you don't have to write to the drive at all.
<8> well
<8> that's a problem
<8> because that's embedded box with not much of RAM
<11> Ok.
<11> But a small linux system doesn't take that much.
<8> yeah i know
<11> Or you could mount the places which need rw to ramdisks, and thus save some memory usage.



<8> but j2se runs on that box and it needs plenty of RAM
<11> Ok.
<8> yep
<11> You seem to know better than me anyway. :)
<8> i've done that for /tmp and some /var/.. dirs
<11> I've never even tried that, altought it has been on my mind for a while.
<8> it's quite cool :)
<12> heya dimple
<11> Hi.
<12> Installing gentoo..
<12> On my laptop again.
<12> I got the new hd.
<12> But lexi can't have his back soon =)
<11> I have gentoo on mine too for a change.
<12> He ain't worth it.
<12> When did you install?
<11> It works as a server now.
<12> =P
<12> Oh
<11> When i got back to irc.
<11> But now the semi-new box from the guy at work would be available too.
<12> My server has been made faster (somehow), better (truly), bigger (in hd capacity) and.. smore silent.
<11> So i'll have to see what i'm goint to end up doing with this laptop.
<12> =/
<12> Give it to charity!
<11> s/goint/going/
<11> Nah.
<12> Bah..
<12> You remember antti?
<11> Maybe i'll just make it a bit more desktop-like and be happy with it. :)
<11> Sure.
<12> He's been lobbing ubuntu for me for quiet a long time..
<11> Don't know how many reinstalls the hd is going to take anymore.
<11> Just don't.
<12> *quite
<11> I think you can use linux well enough to stay away from it. :)
<12> Hmmh
<12> Yup
<11> Not that it'd be bad os.
<11> But still.
<12> Why not just modify a bit it and it's server and desktop variation
<11> All the serving it does now is irssi anyway.
<11> So there really isn't much to modify.
<12> dimple: It's matter of willpower, I'll use gentoo until I get bored to it.
<12> :P
<12> I was going to do some rollerskating a while ago..
<12> Then my grandparents came along.
<12> I dunno why I need to be in the building but I don't have to be in the same room.
<12> Good thing livecd likes to have framebuffer.
<12> I can use links to read newest webcomics even if I don't feel like finishing this install..
<11> Yay, account is empty again.
<11> Goddamnit.
<12> Bank account?
<11> Yeah.
<12> I still have a bit under 500e
<11> I wish i did too.
<12> =/
<12> Indeed.
<12> I just wan't a Vaio
<12> -'
<11> But i'm going to get like 200e from this almost working at the lao.
<12> :)
<12> How long you're in there?
<11> This week, and then 2 more.
<11> Not too long.
<11> It's on KELA's support so the pay ****s.
<11> But only 6h a day.
<12> :/
<12> Even my pay was more better.
<12> And I got like 70% of the real pay..
<12> 529e ended up to my account.
<12> +64.25 from tek
<11> That's just regular "tymarkkinatuki" i'm getting.
<12> *.35
