I have a 40GB IDE laptop hard drive I took out of a dead laptop and I was hoping to put some good use to it. The drive is inside a USB drive enclosure and I carry it in my laptop bag. Its not big enough to be a backup drive, and generally too big to BIOS boot from. The chipset on the enclosure is from Prolific and registers as a "Mass Storage Device" I haven't had good luck with

I've begun working on a syslinux project with a portable usb drive. Up to this point I was a pxelinux.0 user only. My virtualmachine system (Oracle VirtualBox) can netboot so testing config file changes was no big deal. VBox is currently unable to boot from a usb drive despite documentation that says it is possible. Is there a windows based tool that can scan and test a syslinux

Hi all, Space is starting to get a bit tight here, so I''m looking at adding a couple of TB to my home server. I''m considering external USB or FireWire attached drive enclosures. Cost is a real issue, but I also want the data to be managed by ZFS--so enclosures without a JBOD option have been disgarded (i.e., I don''t want to use any internal HW RAID controllers). One

Hello, Is there a way to touch Shoutcast directory with an Icecast server ? Is for a mp3 stream. The server is already serving ogg stream but our foundation got a new member that did not know about ogg, and he needs time to encode his tracks to ogg, and then we should temporarily relay his mp3 stream, but we want to be dired by SC directory ... How to ? :-) -- ASPO Infog?rance

I have 15x SAS drives in a Dell MD1000 enclosure, attached to an LSI 9200-16e. This has been working well. The system is boothing off of internal drives, on a Dell SAS 6ir. I just tried to add a second storage enclosure, with 15 more SAS drives, and I got a lockup during Loading Kernel. I got the same results, whether I daisy chained the enclosures, or plugged them both directly into the LSI

I am building three identical systems. Well they will have different host names, and with time the software setups will drift. But at install time they are identical. Is there some way, (with dd I might guess) to do a hardare level copy? All three drives are Hitachi DK23DA-40F (40Gb). Supposedly factory reconditioned (they are in sealed bags with a drive sticker stating: "Refurbished

HI All, I have a dilemma and I would appreciate advice 1. Get a good size case, mobo, processor, etc and put 8 hard drives it in and RAID them. (yes an 8 port SATA mobo). Running CentOS. or 2. Get an eSATA enclosure that has room for 8 or 10 drives and just connect it to box? I know that RAID is not a full proof backup, but I am looking for a solution to store all of my data, projects, music,

Hello Everyone, I have a CentOS 6.3 host running a few KVMs. One of them is a CentOS 6.3 KVM that I want to use for making backups with BackupPC. What I'm having a problem with is assigning the KVM an external drive. I used to run BackupPC on an Ubuntu box. The backups went to an external eSATA 1.5TB, ext4 format, single partition drive (regular 3.5" in an enclosure). I want to now

In this case the environment contains the variables local to the function, and its enclosure is the environment of the enclosing function.(R-lang:p11) I want to know if the "enclosing function" means the closure of the function? for example ,if I call function mean(),and the create an environment,say e1,then the enclosure of e1 is the namespace of base package? Right? Thank you!

I recently purchased an I/O Magic USB enclosure for 3.5" IDE hard drive. Has anyone else used one of these? It works fine with Windows, except of course that Windows can't read the ext2 partitions on the disk I put into the enclosure. CentOS4 can't find the device, much less access the drive -- it doesn't show up in "lsusb" output, although the active light on the

Hi, we have SunFire X4140 connected to Dell MD1220 SAS enclosure, single path, MPxIO disabled, via LSI SAS9200-8e HBA. Disks are visible with sas-addresses such as this in "zpool status" output: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM cuve ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror-0 ONLINE 0 0 0

The serial port install has almost gone by the wayside, yet I still find a number of cases where it would be great if there were such a thing. Headless servers come to mind specifically. Grub legacy has a way to setup the serial port and broadcast output to both the console and the serial port to check to see where the real person is. I'd like to know if syslinux can do this as well.

Tired of "little problems" trying to keep 7 drives working in an old desktop computer, I'm considering an external SATA drive enclosure with a controller card based on the Sil3124. http://www.ipcdirect.net/servlet/Detail?no=152 I'm a bit concerned about long-term support, namely that the company's driver page only lists drivers through RedHat 4.

My apologies if this is a bit off topic... I am going to start doing backups to removable hard drives and I will need to send these hard drives to an off-site storage facility. I am looking for some way to protect the drives after I pull them out of the system. I was hoping to find some kind of clamshell enclosure similar to what is used with external hard drives, but so far I haven't found

Hi Everyone, I started a social networking site and I am getting ready to go live next week. I have limited fund as I am not funded yet (although hopefully soon). I have an extra Mac Pro (I know, how can I possibly call a Mac Pro dual 2.8 quad core with 16gb RAM extra). So Mac Pro quad Core, 16gb RAM, 4 x 1tb RAID level Seagate drives. I was going to load CentOS 5.4 on it, web, mysql

I am having an extremely strange issue with a BL460c1 (G1) blade on a c7000 enclosure. I could not for the life of me get the machine to ping the gateway or any other blade on the same enclosure (yes, the subnet mask was correct & quadruple-checked); although pinging to the local IP works. I was almost convinced that it was a network or hardware issue; until I asked someone to try

I faced the same issue and had to change from maildir to sdbox storage. The imap labels are now stored centrally per folder in an index file and not the filename anymore. Moving mails from one folder to another keeps the lable intact now. Am 22.02.23 um 11:20 schrieb Alexis Ben Miloud--Josselin: > Hi, > > I have an issue with e-mail tags/flags.

I am seeing what seems to be a notable limit on read performance of an ext3 filesystem. If anyone could offer some insight it would be helpful. Background: 12 x 500G SATA disks in a Hardware RAID enclosure connected via 2Gb/s FC to a 4 x 2.6 Ghz system with 4GB ram running RHEL4.5. Initially the enclosure was configured RAID5 10+1 parity, although I've also tried RAID 50 and currently RAID 0.
