similar to: Rsync behaviour on harddisc crash

Hi all. I currently have a problem. I try to make a backup of a running / filesystem to a second disc. I've read tha some people use rsync for it. I mount the second harddisc at /mnt/hdb1 and issue a command: rsync -vaHx --progress --numeric-ids --delete \ --exclude-from=asylum_backup.excludes --delete-excluded \ / /mnt/hdb1 Then I shutdown the system, remove the first disc and try

I noticed that ext3 filesystems are modified if mounted read-only: # mke2fs -j /dev/hdb1 [...] # md5sum /dev/hdb1 > MD5SUM # mount -t ext3 -o ro /dev/hdb1 /mnt/test1 # umount /mnt/test1 # md5sum -c MD5SUM md5sum: MD5 check failed for '/dev/hdb1' On examination of a block-for-block copy of 'before' and 'after' images with od and diff, I believe that the changes are

Here is the initial release: git://github.com/donhiatt/Syslinux-EXT2FS-Library-port.git I am very new to git so I hope I managed to get the repo setup properly. The repo is branched from 'disklib' as I plan to use it for all disk read/write access (I'm currently using modified gpllib/disk/* -- see README). Cheers, don ----- README for ext2fs module. * Description -----------

My UPS failed and my server took an 'unscheduled outage' a few weeks ago. The only casualty appears to be a volume I used for backup. I usually maintain data on multiple hard disks, but in this case I errantly had some data (of marginal value) on this file system. At this point, the data is not worth enough for me to send the drive out for data recovery, but it's worth enough to

Hi, I'm trying to copy my CentOS install to a new drive. - old drive is /dev/hda and had hda1 : /boot hda2 : swap hda3 lvm hda5 : lvm hda4 : /usr/local - new drive is /dev/hdb hdb1 : /boot hdb2 : swap hdb3 : / I decided to get rid of lvm which is useless to me.

I copied an exact copy of "http://demo.script.aculo.us/ajax/autocompleter" to my harddisc inclusive all .js and .css. Then I changed "new Ajax.Autocompleter(''contact_name'', ''contact_name_auto_complete'', ''/ajax/auto_complete_for_contact_name'', {})" to "new Ajax.Autocompleter(''contact_name'',

Hi, I want to slowly migrate from Debian to CentOS, so I setup a multiboot on my main machine. There's a Debian Etch install on /dev/hda, and GRUB is also installed on the Debian side.

Has anyone been able to boot a bartpe image successfully using pxelinux or does anyone know if this is impossible?
