Slow RAID resync
OK todays problem.
I have a HP N54L Microserver running centos 6.5.
In this box I have a 3x2TB disk raid 5 array, which I am in the
process of extending to a 4x2TB raid 5 array.
I've added the new disk --> mdadm --add /dev/md0 /dev/sdb
And grown the array --> mdadm --grow /dev/md0 --raid-devices=4
Now the problem the resync speed is v slow, it refuses to rise above

Question re: CentOS-6.0, KVM, and /dev/sr0
I am experimenting with KVM and I wish to create a virtual machine
image in a logical volume. I can create the new lv without problem
but when I go to format its file system then I get these warnings:
Warning: WARNING: the kernel failed to re-read the partition table

HP Envy EFI problem after BIOS update
Hi Jim,
Thanks for this. I looked into what you said, and once happy I ran the
command you gave. It appeared to work as it did not come up with any errors,
and the output from efibootmgr showed
1) Centos had been added as an option and
2) it was the first in the boot sequence.
However, when I rebooted the laptop went straight into Win8, and after
rebooting back into KDE Live, the option is

CentOS 7 - Have 2 disks, each with a biosboot partition, can only boot off one of them
Hi all,
I used a kickstart script to setup a new machine of mine with RAID 1
(I couldn't get anaconda to create matching partition schemes). So I've
now got /dev/sdg1 and /dev/sdh1 as 'bios_grub' (/dev/sd{a-f} are a
separate array).

CentOS 6.6 64-bit won't install on a 3 TB disk

1: Is this system booting UEFI or BIOS?
2: Is the disk partitioned with MBR or GPT?
3: Is /boot on its own partition?
3TB drives are larger than MBR and BIOS properly support, so they're
only really expected to work on a system partitioned with

F18: Create a USB install of CentOS 6 from iso
Hi all,
On a F18, I installed livecd-tools-18.15-1
I downloaded CenOS6.x minimal .iso and with livecd-iso-to-disk the
resulting USB is never bootable: the computer doesnt boot on it. Tested
on many computers.
The fact is I succeded to install CentOS on a Netbook (no CD/DVD tray),
but I dont remember how I invoked livecd-iso-to-disk.
I tried with many combinations (/dev/sdc is the USB

Minicom and Ncurses
Hi,
I have to do some maintenance on a CentOS 7 proxy installed on a routerboard
without a video card. The only way to access this machine directly is via
Minicom and serial port.
I'm using NetworkManager TUI (nmtui) to configure network interfaces, but
Ncurses rendering in Minicom works in the sense that chickens fly and horses
swim. What you get is a forest of question marks with a few

How to transform the date format as "20050425"
Dear R user,
if the dates are in format as "20050425" i.e., Apr. 25 2004"
can you suggest an easy way to transfom it to standard form
as "2005-04-25" or "2004Apr25" or "2005/04/25" or any other
format which is R recognizable?
if there is no easy way to do that, can you let me know what

Batch Mode for Windows
Hi, I have researched batch mode for windows and could not find anything that
worked.
I know the code should be

or
R <inputfile.R > outputfile.Rout
I tried these without success. I need detailed, step by step instructions on
how to do this. I have tried typing C:\R\bin\x64\Rgui.exe before it, but
this just opens R.

[RFC] Print FP constant assembly in hexadecimal form instead of decimal
Hi:
When debugging some floating point assembly, we found it is inconvenient to
read the decimal constants in assembly.
In hex form many FP numbers are immediately recognizable, their exponents
are more obvious etc.
We normally use hex form in debugger or LLVM IR,
not sure what is the reason that we want to use decimal in assembly?
The form change won't change precision or affecting

Assistance with an encoding plugin

I'm working on writing a FLAC encoding plugin for a personal cd ripping

basic setup which follows gets me oddly high pitched audio with lots of

Has the work in this talk been pushed: "Better C++ debugging using Clang Modules in LLDB"?
Hi,
I tried using lldb built from master, but still seeing some STL
container member functions not recognizable in a debugging session. I am
wondering if the work has been pushed to master; also if it's pushed but
not enabled by default yet, is there a flag I can use to turn on the
expression evaluator using Clang modules. Thanks a lot for the great work.

[LLVMdev] LLVM Shared DLL not supported reason
FWIW, I've got a powershell script that builds an exports.def file for
recognizable C functions.
You could adapt it to Python and make it part of the official build if the
LLVM community thinks it will be beneficial to have libLLVM.dll
The script is located here:
