<0> Evening all..
<1> http://www.kansascity.com/mld/kansascity/16616155.htm
<1> cros13: buonasera!
<1> "A Kansas City man being retried for shoving a cell phone down his girlfriends throat in 2005 was found guilty today by a Jackson County jury."
<1> thats not what supposed to go down the GF throat..
<0> at least not until after the wedding
<2> before I leave... I found this line in a forum in a thread about valentines day. "Okay girls last warning: Be my girlfriend or I'm going to MAKE A THREAD."
<2> I cant help laughing
<1> Jostein: valentine2008.com
<1> well, I have a year left before that..
<3> wee, 203.2megs worth of updates for MS SBS2003
<0> Teakk: I thought the fun was in updating SBS, preferably over dialup
<3> hah



<0> got my LPI level 2 yesterday, 2 weeks after i got my level 1, now they have to go and release level 3, grr...
<0> http://www.tectonic.co.za/view.php?id=1351
<1> lets see here..
<3> Downloading Security Update For Windows Server 2003 (KBB24151) (update 10 of 97)...
<3> yeah, I think I will head out for a few hours
<0> Teakk: you know by the time you're finished that there will be 10 more update released
<1> 23:18:00 (3.93 MB/s) - `debian-31r4-i386-netinst.iso.2' saved [117620736]
<4> K_F: well I can get those speeds too
<4> K_F: okay okay, it's all connected to the same switch.
<1> Nanuq: I'm only paying for 7Mbit though
<1> Nanuq: nah, this is downloading from ftp://ftp.uninett.no/linux/ISO-images/debian/current/i386/iso-cd
<4> K_F: :P
<4> K_F: oh that's right, you've invested your humour
<1> yeah, I have no humor.. understood where you were going the moment you started though
<1> Nanuq: saying I have no humor is actually inaccurate, but you have to be an accountant or a lawyer to trigger it
<4> K_F: :P
<5> Hello people, I've got a MP3 player that is linked to /dev/sda but it has several partitions that don't coincide physical and logical endings, I want to create a unique partition such as any other USB memory but am not sure what will happen, is it possible to 'dd if=/dev/sda of=/BACKUP.img" and later restore it if does not work as I expect?
<4> UWear: what manner of partitions, exactly?
<5> Nanuq: there are 4 partitions of diferent sizes, even bigger than the physical memory in the MP3 and of strange types (69, 73, 74 and 0 types), I want to create only one Fat32 or Fat16 and test the player if it works, and if not restore the backup via the 'dd' command to leave it as it came from factory and use it only with windows
<5> but don't know if since it works as a scsi disk, a backup could be made and restored of the entire "disk"
<4> UWear: well if the partition sizes don't coincide with the known storage capacity of the device, I'd have serious doubts
<5> I don't know if it could be a propietary filesystem and could be damaged
<5> :(
<4> UWear: how does a Windows box see it, for example?
<1> Nanuq: actually my USB key had a very weird setup by default
<4> K_F: mine doesn't, so..
<4> works fine under NetBSD ;)
<5> windows shows it like a normal usb memory with a single partition of 512Mb, just like my other memories that work fine with linux, but this one appears with too many partitions with weird sizes and setup
<4> sd0 at scsibus0 target 0 lun 0: <Kingston, DataTraveler 2.0, 1.00> disk removable
<4> sd0: fabricating a geometry
<4> sd0: 953 MB, 953 cyl, 64 head, 32 sec, 512 bytes/sect x 1952256 sectors
<1> Nanuq: http://dev.kfwebs.net/part-table.txt was the default
<1> obviously the first thing I did was to fix it
<4> K_F: well, is it even partitioned?
<1> Nanuq: yes, it was
<1> had a fat32 on /dev/sda
<1> but couldn't mount any single partition although it had 4
<4> K_F: then it wasn't partitioned :P
<2> WTH
<2> "Pedophile 29 year old went to a childrens school (as a student)"
<5> if I make a 'dd' to save a "drive" image, make tests, and if does not work restore the image with 'dd', would it work?
<2> K_F: http://www.aftenposten.no/nyheter/uriks/article1626852.ece
<4> UWear: try dding /dev/sda to a file, and comparing that to the physical storage capacity
<1> Nanuq: well, it was, but it wasn't used
<4> K_F: nono..
<5> I already did the dd to a file and coincides with the physical size of the memory
<4> K_F: fdisk tried to interpret that as a partition table
<1> anyways, it is fixed now..
<4> K_F: if you do partition it, then you'd have /dev/sda1. the whole device can be one large filesystem
<5> would it be safe to repartition?
<4> K_F: in my case, /dev/sd0d
<4> K_F: which is the BSD way of saying "the whole disk"
<4> K_F: as opposed to /dev/sd0a, which is the first partition
<4> UWear: Well, whether the firmware would understand that or not, I don't know.
<6> http://www.wgal.com/news/10888319/detail.html <-- haha
<4> UWear: if you're interested in merely backing it up.. you have your answer.
<5> thanks :D
<4> UWear: can you mount /dev/sda?
<7> DUMP: Volume 1 started with block 1 at: Sat Feb 3 23:41:38 2007
<7> DUMP: dumping (P*** III) [directories]



<7> DUMP: dumping (P*** IV) [regular files]
<7> wheee.. this has got to be the ugliest backup ever made :(
<5> Nanuq: I can't mount none sda[1-4] since the partition type appears as unknown
<7> you don't dump a database using dump but hell, got little choice here so far.
<4> UWear: I didn't ask that.
<4> UWear: can you mount "/dev/sda" ?
<5> simply /dev/sda? let me try
<8> please help me i need a root
<4> aDaniel1: carrot
<5> ooooooohhhh!!! my dear Nanuq, it worked to mount simply /dev/sda with no number of partition :o
<4> UWear: there you go
<5> I didn't know it was possible, thanks a lot :D
<4> UWear: it's not partitioned. linux and fdisk try to make sense of the filesystem as if it were a partition table.
<4> UWear: hence the weird results.
<4> UWear: or rather, where the partition table _would_ be, it isn't there.
<4> UWear: now in KF's case, he can partition the device and use it as he pleases.
<2> wow
<2> K_F's disk-fu is impressive :P
<5> well thanks for your help, you saved me lot of time... I'd like to make a partition but will leave it as it is to avoid future problems, anyway it is working now
<4> UWear: but in your case, because this is an MP3 player, the firmware might not understand your partitioning scheme
<5> thanks again
<5> :)
<9> /win 14
<2> koro: i find alt-o ctrl-n times 4 faster :P
<2> alt-0
<2> K_F: damn nice
<2> http://dilbert.com/comics/dilbert/archive/images/dilbert2007026108903.gif
<7> aDaniel1: we don't like scriptkiddies here.
<7> go stick your root into some power outlet or something
<9> Jostein: alt+r is unbeatable
<9> but i have conflict with some keys
<2> koro: just learned about that one right now actually :P
<9> :)
<2> which was why I commented "damn nice" to K_F :P
<9> anyway, ctrl n is too slow to me since i'm running irssi in a remote server and the connection is kind of slow
<2> heck
<9> so swapping through many windows takes time
<2> I have 11 sites up and running, BT in the background
<2> and this is on a 400kbps link
<9> it's not a bandwith problem
<2> ah. latency?
<9> yes
<9> i have 10Mbps here, certainly not the problem
<2> I know that one. I was using ssh a lot over GPRS while waiting for DSL to get installed
<9> yeah, latency is annoying
<9> the server is in the other hemisphere, that doesn't help
<2> but at least it got me off the hook for crappy spelling
<9> hehe
<2> "trying to correct typos will take me a minute pr. typo" :P
<2> anyone here knows a quick way to dump a dead site trough googlecache?
<2> kinda like wget -R
<9> well... wget -R , perhaps ?
<2> no
<2> because google cache have rewritten links to the orginal dead domain
<9> oh, that ****s
<2> be they relative or absolute in the first place
<2> yeah
<2> Im thinking of cloning a dead jpop wiki before it disappears from the scratch, and just figured SOMEONE must have had a need to efficiently dump the google cache before me
<2> s/scratch/cache/ # odd typo
<2> I could ofcourse do this in C#, but I was thinking about deploying the new wiki on a linux machine, so that would be no good, and my perl-fu is weak
<10> Jostein: quick! do it up in PHP and let it get hacked 6 ways from sunday
<2> libolt: :P
<2> libolt: I will use the standard Media Wiki
<2> libolt: as that is what the original site was in. should make importing data easier
<10> Jostein: bah what's the fun in that?
<11> hrm, LPIC-3 is out
<2> libolt: the fun would be hosting the worls most popular jpop wiki
<2> which for some reason has been down -too- long now IMO
<10> Jostein: until the server bill hits you in the face with a sledgehammer :)
<10> nah that's cool though if youc an get it up and running
<2> libolt: it would be on a totally free uni server
<2> libolt: a subnet that handles 130GB a day
<2> and no complaints
