Dear Sirs, I've a question belonging to the run-init utility. I'm trying to boot a full linux system from ram. Therefore I provide a kernel and initrd from a tftp server. The full rootfs is provided through a nfs-server and is at time a cpio-archive. That archive shall be copied to the local client and mounted in a tmpfs partition. After that, I want replace the oldroot bei the root

I just add a partition /dev/sdb3 and use "mkswap /dev/sdb3" to make it swap space. How can I label the /dev/sdb3 like "SWAP-sdb3"? what I want is put on /etc/fstab as entry like: LABEL=SWAP-sdb2 swap swap defaults 0 0 LABEL=SWAP-sdb3 swap swap defaults 0 0 Thanks

Hi, the situation: Label: ''RootFS''  uuid: c87975a0-a575-405e-9890-d3f7f25bbd96     Total devices 2 FS bytes used 284.98GB     devid    2 size 311.82GB used 286.51GB path /dev/sdb3     devid    1 size 897.76GB used 286.51GB path /dev/sda3 RootFS created when sda3 was 897.76GB and sdb3 311.82GB.

Hi, I am recovering a CentOS 5.4 system. I've copied all partitions into the recovery system. I've installed grub boot loader. However, the original system is using /dev/sdb1 for root (/), while the recovery system is using LVM (/dev/vg0/lv1) for root (/). When recovery system boots, I got the panic error: * Mounting /dev/sdb1 on /sysroot * Mount: mounting

Today our server had seriuos problems, we had to reinitiate it and run fsck manually. Dou you think it's an ext3, kernel (vanilla 2.4.19) or hardware bug? The errors were (from syslog): -------------------------------- Oct 6 16:10:25 nou kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device Oct 6 16:10:25 nou kernel: 72:02: rw=0, want=230266240, limit=4882432 Oct 6 16:10:25 nou kernel: attempt

Hi All, I have what I believe to be a pretty basic LVM & RAID setup on my CentOS 5 machine: Raid Partitions: /dev/sda1,sdb1 /dev/sda2,sdb2 /dev/sda3,sdb3 During the install I created a RAID 1 volume md0 out of sda1,sdb1 for the boot partition and then added sda2,sdb2 to a separate RAID 1 volume as well (md1). I then setup md1 as a LVM physical volume for volume group 'system'. I

Hello, I have a RAID5 array on my CentOS 5.6 x86_64 workstation which "suddenly" failed to work (actually after the system could not resume from a suspend). I had recently issues after moving the workstation to another office, where one of the disks got accidently unplugged. But the RAID was working and it had reconstructed (as far as I can tell) the data. After I replugged the disk,

Hello, I was using a bunch of cpios in initramfs as a working system, and wondering why the unused files weren't being paged out to swap. So I reread ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.txt and now I know. So I wrote the attached utility. It creates a tmpfs, moves all files on the initramfs, moves / and executes the real init. It works, even with hardlinks, but it isn't the correct approach. Have

Hi I had some doubts regarding what all the init application should do: >> so, that should that application do? >> - mount /dev/hda1 /new-root >> - cd /new-root >> - run-init 1. Of what I understand, before exitting, init should mount the realroot and execute the init process. Is realroot the '/' or the empty directory created (in the cpio archive) ?

My LAN includes a server machine running FC4, with several shares mounted with Samba. Yesterday, I upgraded the packages on the FC4 machine, and these included Samba, which is now at 3.0.23a. Unfortunately, this seems to have broken the mounted shares for my Ubuntu 6.06 installation on my Acer 1682WLMI laptop. The cifs module on Ubuntu reports as version 1.39. The symptoms are that I can

The inode eviction can be very slow, because during eviction we tell the VFS to truncate all of the inode''s pages. This results in calls to btrfs_invalidatepage() which in turn does calls to lock_extent_bits() and clear_extent_bit(). These calls result in too many merges and splits of extent_state structures, which consume a lot of time and cpu when the inode has many pages. In some

Currently the fs sync function (super.c:btrfs_sync_fs()) doesn''t wait for delayed work to finish before returning success to the caller. This change fixes this, ensuring that there''s no data loss if a power failure happens right after fs sync returns success to the caller and before the next commit happens. Steps to reproduce the data loss issue: $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb3 $

Hi, This might sound like a n00b question, but I've honestly never done this with a Linux machine... (it is running Centos3) We have a 1U mail server with two 36GB SCSI drives in a hardware mirror config. There's no more room for any other drives in the case. It's filling up, so we now have two 74GB drives ready to take their place. Possible solutions that I've come up

hi! I got a problem with one of my servers where the boot process fails, because it cannot find its root partition. My /boot/grub/grub.conf uses to look like ---8<--- title CentOS (2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64 ro root=UUID=8ef1f6cb-5dfc-497e-83d0-8d91cbbe4939 rd_NO_LUKS LANG=en_US.UTF-8 rd_NO_MD quiet

'--no-degraded' flag in the first mdadm call inhibits the startup of array unless all expected drives are present. This will prevent starting arrays in degraded state. Second mdadm call (after LVM is scanned) will scan unused yet devices and make an attempt to run all found arrays even they are in degraded state. Two new tests are added. This fixes rhbz1527852. Here is boot-benchmark

I have a CentOS 5.6 system (recently installed) that, for some reason, has decided to mangle one of its drives, specifically /dev/hde1 ... No errors anywhere, just rebooted the machine over the weekend and it's gone. Up till the reboot, the drive was fine, I was writing to it without a problem. fdisk tells me: ---------- # fdisk -l /dev/hde Disk /dev/hde: 160.0 GB, 160041885696
