<0> hey Russ
<1> yeah, pondering lunch is a good thing to do now
<2> hi, ;) , anybody has experience making bootsplash initrds with splash utils?, if an initrd is a file system... what is appended to an initrd using splash -s -f <config file>?, thanks in advance
<3> so, for the first time in my life, I changed brakes AND rotors on my car today
<3> AND, the car didnt fall apart on the interstate on the way home
<4> g32k1: an initrd file is more like a cpio file afaik.
<0> Steakk: just at the turnoff this time?
<5> Steakk: don't worry it's jsut waiting for you to hi the right speed?
<3> Nanuq, I noticed that my car was kinda like, rattling today...so, i tore off the tire at my grannies place (she was right down the road), and noticed that my brakes were gone, and my rotor was about to be gone
<3> so, took grannies car, bought the parts, and dove in...not knowing what I was doing
<2> ??? i thought it was initramfs the one in a cpio, let me check that
<6> Steakk, how the HELL can you wear your brakes down that far without noticing?
<3> libolt4, I did 75 MPH on the way home, and nothin happened, so I think I am safe
<6> they usually scream like a banshee when they wear out
<3> adikt, I didnt notice until today, cause today is when the squeaker bar on them started to howl
<6> heh, guess whoever replaced the pads last time didnt bother checking the rotors then
<3> The front brakes were replaced about a month ago...the front brakes are what i replaced today
<3> the rotor on the drivers side was THAT bad
<6> O_o
<3> ate the ****in brakes in less than a month
<6> id SERIOUSLY complain to whoever did them last time
<6> cos that is NOT right
<3> it was my father
<3> heh
<6> kick his ***
<6> heh
<3> oh, i will
<3> i gave him hell already
<1> geeze din't they redo the roters when they changed them the last time?
<3> good thing I had a few $...and that the parts were cheap...$36.62 for a new rotor, and 2 sets of brakes (both sides in front)
<6> probably should have done both rotors really
<3> then again, I do get 35% off at advance auto parts
<7> that is cheap, for what kind of car?
<3> adikt, I will do the other rotor in front next month when I have a spare $20
<3> zerobias, they are so cheap because of my 35% discount
<1> VW? parts for a bug are really cheap
<3> zerobias, but it is a 1998 Chrysler Sebring LXi Luxury Edition 2 Door Coupe
<7> ahh...
<7> got one in the neighborhood, nice looking car...
<3> its a great car
<3> 150,000 miles on it, and runs like it has 2 miles on it
<7> very nice and how much MPG?
<6> hrmm, i need a new car
<6> anyone got a spare $150k to give me? :P
<3> zerobias, I get about 35mpg highway
<3> and 20 or so city
<7> nice!
<3> and, luckily enough, gas is going down here...$2.69/gallon now
<7> I'm near TX so...it's 2.35 here
<3> jack***
<3> heh
<7> if it gets down under two bucks, I might start driving again
<2> Lion-O:Yes you are right! :), mkinitrd makes a cpio file, i am pretty sure i've also seen then as an ext2 fs image, could that be or was i drunk?
<7> or driving more again...
<3> I hear that
<8> Steakk: my mother in law drives a car like that. it's full of endless problems
<8> it's a two door lxi with the leather trim
<8> PCM goes bad, transmission electronics go bad
<3> Menno, not leather trim...the whole interior is leather
<9> tar doesn't have an exclude other than by listing in a FILE doe sit?
<8> the whole interior is on this thing too.
<8> last thing to go bad was the IC igniter
<3> Menno, I have not had any issues, and its got 150k miles already
<3> its time to get a new car soon anyway
<8> I'm really glad my wife sold that car
<3> OH, and I resigned from my job today...I am now 100% self reliant on my income wiht the business
<2> See you, time to bed. Cya Lion-O
<4> perhaps its time to follow Jostein's examples 8)
<10> what?
<10> code?
<4> Jostein: steal some wine
<10> ah
<10> right
<4> Jostein: amazing!
<10> well. coding is an immersive and fun thing to do every once in a while. what can I say? :)
<9> liar
<11> http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/09/06/bush.speech/index.html
<11> That's ****in' scary
<10> reality: anything that guy says is scary
<11> Jostein: I think that one took the cake
<11> And locked it up in a secret prison
<10> reality: not because it is particulary frightening in itself, but because he actually is the president of the US, and has showed will to employ the US military for whatever he deems correct
<11> Scary because we actually have such a thing
<10> yeah
<10> but ... you know, at least now he acknowledges that the US is to abide at least -some- rules
<10> as to before there were none.
<10> not saying its good, but its better.
<3> This is ground control to major tom. Youve really made the grade...And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear...Now its time to leave the capsule if you dare...this is major tom to ground control...i'm stepping through the door...and i'm floating in a most peculiar way..and the stars look very different today...
<8> steakk: you still bangin the roomie?
<3> on occasion
<12> that's always handy.
<12> :)
<3> heh
<13> hey, I'm trying to reduce the size of my kernel because I suspect my ARC booter has some weird size limitation. Is using the strip command on it going to leave it functional or not ? (I've already got rid of all unnecessary stuff in the config)
<14>
<8> Was that the roommate who felt clothes were optional whilst around the house?
<8> I remember that.. you were running Localtalk back then. :)
<3> LocalTalk wha?
<12> Menno: only on occ***ion. :P
<12> LocalMumble. :)
<12> I was using it for one old powerbook and my newton
<8> aha
<8> that must have been like.. circa 98
<15> nothingness: why dont you use a modular kernel?
<13> TenBaseT, well I don't want to muck about with a ramdisk and I'm not convinced the kernel will find the drive with the modules
<13> this is a *really* awkward machine, a sgi visual station 320
<15> nothingness: all you need to do to avoid an initrd is make sure the drivers for the storage adapter you need to boot are compiled in. everything else can be modular.
<13> TenBaseT, well I'll give it a go then
<13> thanks...
<16> man
<16> this day just keeps getting longer
<9> win 1
<17> k..
<17> hey.. does someone has a shell account for me, I need to practice commands..
<12> hmm.. the chairman of the board is rihgt outside my office.
<4> LadyLK: piss off

<4> Nanuq: bad weather at your place too eh?
<12> i'm debating.. do I just buy the stupid fast CPU and motherboard or not

<12> Lion-O: yeah yeah
<4> Nanuq: complain to your local weather forecaster. You're not allowed to have a cold :)
<0> Falchion: might be worth ripping them apart, building your own lappy battery pack ;)
