similar to: Moving a Centos 5 install to another disk

Hi, The title says it all. One of my clients showed me a 120 GB hard drive that his daughter accidentally formatted, according to him. I booted the first CD I had at hand - a Slackware 11.0 install CD - and launched cdfdisk /dev/hda. cfdisk informed me that there was even no partition table. So much for reformatting. cfdisk only shows me 120 GB of free space. Any way to retrive data on this

I have installed spamassassin, per the instructions on Scalix's wiki, and it is working, with some important caviats. So I asked for help on the spamassassin user list, and got some, but I think I am butting up against some Centos specific issues...

Hi, I found 2 identical drives lying around and put them into a system. When booting from a Centos 5.x installer, and when being presented with the formatting option (disk druid), it says I have 1 volume of; mamapper/isw_bdihgcgahe_Volume0p2 I can't seem to get rid of it. I have 2 physical disks but disk druid is seeing 1 volume thats the same size as one of the 2 identical drives.

Hi folks, I'm having problems now with the Win32 syslinux in the 2.0.6 release when using it on various CompactFlash drives. These drives end up going into a Geode-based PC board with a built in CF slot. Now, before I run SYSLINUX.EXE on them, they are 32MB with a Toshiba part number showing up when the PC boots. They show up on as the Secondary Master. After I run SYSLINUX.EXE, they stay

This is a machine in a remote datacenter, so I have no console access to it. The machine suddenly went offline, was reset remotely and showed several unrecoverable DMA errors when it came up. After a second normal reboot (to see if the problem was consistent) it lost several services and didn't come up after the third reboot. After contacting the datacenter the disk got replaced and the

On my system, I have the wine prefix installed in the default location (/home/username/.wine). However, I goofed when I was installing linux, and my home partition is very small compared to the root partition. I tried repartitioning it with a livecd, but it said that the volume was "locked" or something like that. Anyways, I only have about 2 gigs of space left on my home partition,

Hi, One of my shared volumes crashed the other day on a RH-7.2, 2.4.9-31 system. These are the first errors in the log: kernel: EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,9)): ext3_readdir: bad entry in directory #2424833: rec_len is smaller than minimal - offset=0, inode=2553887680, rec_len=0, name_len=0 kernel: EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,9)): ext3_readdir: bad entry in directory #2424833: rec_len is

Hello all. Does anyone have any suggestions for making centos cloud images that can automatically repartition the root device to resize the filesystem? All the Ubuntu UEC images do this, so using the same image, you can launch cloud instances of a variety of flavors and the VM instance will repartition the root disk and resize the fs. The Ubuntu images utilize scripts in the initramfs dpkg that

I''ve got knee deep into learning how to use Opensolaris and zfs, and I see now that my goal of home zfs server may have been better served if I had partitioned the install disk leaving some of the 60GB to be added to a zpool. First, how much space does a working OS need. I don''t mean bare minimum but to be comfortable and have some growing room (on the install disk)?

Dear Sir/s, As I have mentioned in my previous email, is there a way to recover or bring back to life a crashed Centos OS after doing a Hard Driver repartition or resizing? Thanks. Regards, CHRIS

If I spell "commission" wrongly with an s instead of a t, Xapian (via the QueryParser's get_corrected_query_string function) is finding the right spelling: http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/search/commistion However, if I miss the s out completely, it doesn't find it: http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/search/commision Any idea why that is? Missing the last i out also doesn't

I've downloaded codeweavers-wine-20011108, and installed it on a Red Hat 6.1 linux box. It won't launch any programs, however, and returns an error message that says it needs a "true Windows partition mounted under Linux" or an "empty Windows directory". Does this mean I need to repartition the hard drive? Thanks, again, Roy

Hi all, I'm looking for a way to recreate the functionality of PGP Disk (under Win32). Basically, create an encrypted file, which contains a filesystem which can then be mounted in any mount point. I know I can use GELI in FreeBSD 6 - as I understand, it performs the encryption at the partition level (the whole partition is encrypted). I'd like to be able to simply unmount my

I've got an embedded x86 system built with Yocto, which boots from a USB flash drive. It uses a loop mount to give access to an ext3 root file system contained within a FAT16 file, which means it has persistent storage. What I want is something that boots from the flash drive, but copies everything into a large RAM disk, and runs from there, so that it doesn't touch the flash drive once

Is there anyway I can write a script which feed input datasource from stdin and let R process it (maybe frequency report) then output the report to stdout? I can't seem to find much info on documentation or FAQ on this topic. Thanks!
