...e man page has no documentation on this. When I try to use it, any value I've specified returns "mke2fs: blocks per group count out of range" Can I use this option to make larger block groups, which should reduce fragmentation of my files? Should I care about this? -- -Matt Stegman

I as having problems with Bacula stopping on 17Gig Volume sizes, so I decided to try to Just dd a 50 gig file.

All, Has anyone seen this - I am getting the following deprecation warning when running my functional tests under rails 2.3.8 (just moved an app from 2.3.4 up to 2.3.8 in prep to move to Rails 3 --- if you think this problem is solved in Rails 3 then let me know): The {{key}} interpolation syntax in I18n messages is deprecated.

Hi! I'm going to build a maildir-based mailserver with a ~56 gb mail-partition. What blocksize/bytes-per-inode/number of inodes should i use (i don't want to ran out of inodes and don't want to sacrifice too much space for filefragments)? Is there a drawback when lowering the blocksize/increasing the number of inodes (except the maximum filesystem size)? The inodes used by a file is

I have a legacy application I ported from Rails 2.x. I found that the escaping was occurring where it shouldn''t, like in creation of forms, and I couldn''t turn it off. I found two mechanisms that should have disabled it, a function safe_html, which is supposed to mark a string as not needing to be escaped. The other is raw, which similarly indicates that a string should be output

Can anyone comment on whether or not it is possible to successfully disable the journal of an ext3 root file system prior to reboot? My application is to try and make sure there is no journal prior to installing and rebooting into a system which does not support ext3. I know that as long as the root is cleanly remounted r/o with no journal updates pending, this will be compatible. I'm

Hello All, I am developing a JRuby on Rails 3 application. Standard stuff. I am facing problems getting autotest to run. Here''s the trace: % autotest loading autotest/rails_rspec2 bundle exec /Users/manish/Foo/Foo-Server/jruby-1.5.2/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rspec-core-2.0.0.beta.22/bin/rspec

Is it potentially dangerous to use an ActiveRecord model in routes.rb? Here''s a line from our routes.rb file: > map.resources :registrations, :requirements => { :id => User::USERNAME_REGEXP } Registration#to_param returns the User''s username. User::USERNAME_REGEXP is just a regex that matches one or more valid username characters. This route works as expected, but my
