Debian Configuration :: Can Move SSD From Old To New Laptop Without Formatting?
Jun 30, 2015I have been using debian from the past 3 years on a dell inspiron 1520 (2007 model). Yesterday i bought a dell inspiron 5548 (Early 2015). I have and ssd drive in old laptop that i want to move to the new laptop. To my knowledge i think i can replace the 1TB hard drive on new laptop with ssd, remove or reinstall or update drivers so the ssd will just run fine on new laptop without having to reinstall all the stuff and customization. Should i recompile the kernel in linux for new hardware? AFA windows 7(Dual booting Debian 8 and Windows 7), i think removing and reinstalling drivers will work fine.

It was easy to keep up when your working or have access to hardware for re-purposing, but that has all dried up and my knowledge has been left behind. The problem(s) are with new, recent hardware
Following a crash from a now detectable faulty stick of RAMM, I've lost one of my data hard disks and my fiddling with replacement seems to leave various errors/warnings mainly about GPT not supported and this message is still present despite trying fdisk, cfdisk, gpart, gparted, and(?).

General :: Division Of Logical Memory Space In To User Space And Kernel Space
Jan 4, 2010Logical Memory Space of 4GB is divided in to 3GB User Space and 1GB Kernel Space. Always. Correct?
1. How can we change it? (just changing value of PAGE_OFFSET is okay?)
2. If system have only 256MB of memory (embedded system) and suppose Kernel Modules eat away all the memory during boot. User space will be left will no memory. Is this case possible?

Software :: Debian's And Debian Based Distros With Disk Space - Burn Video On Hard Drive

View 3 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Hard Drive Space For Debian And GUI?
Feb 22, 2010How much should I consider allocating if I wanted to go a bit beyond a "Live CD" experience but not quite as far as making it my A-1 Linux? My first experience with Linux (or Unix) and GUI together was LinuxPPC on a 603e Mac clone. That was on an 8GB drive (that used to call a RAID server its home, incidentally). Then I had OS X, versions 10.1 and 10.2 on a G3 iMac (40GB boot drive), followed by OS X 10.3 Jaguar on a G4 Dual 1.25 MDD. The power supply died on that -- a $300 item when you can find one with the right pinouts.
In x86 land, on this Lenovo M55p (80gb boot, 1GB RAM, Windows XP Pro SP3 as the primary installed OS), I've sampled GNOME and KDE thanks to Wubi installs that were 15Gb and 25Gb, respectively. I also have an IBM Thinkpad T54 (1.25GB RAM, also 80GB boot) onto which I've installed Ubuntu 9.04.
I understand that Debian has no Wubi counterpart; that it runs strictly on X-ready file systems (Ext2, Ext3 come to mind as examples with which I am vaguely familiar). I have also heard, often enough to start believing it, that Ubuntu and its K & X variants are derived from Debian. I get the impression, however, that for a decent install of it, somewhat more than 15 or 25 GB may be required.
Debian :: Out Of Disk Space On /

Feb 10, 2011If you haven't heard, PS3's on custom firmware have access to a linux install of sorts.
The OS is running from an .img of a Debian squeeze install.
My problem is that installing anything makes it run out of space. (It's only a 1Gig image)
I have searched and found some info, but it doesn't seem to work.
Make sure you have loop module on your linux.
Now you can copy the linux.img to your root of usb stick...
AND...
Mount first the original 1gb linux.img and then copy it to somewhere and then create an bigger image and copy to the new image.
mount:
And then follow the how to above. i think you should copy the folder with rsync because cp command will damage folder permissions!

Seems very doubtful that inodes are the killer.I have googled and followed all the threads, and search these forums and found nothing that fits - every answer there was focused on avaiolable space and inodes..And to make the cheese even more binding, the issue has cropped up on another 8.3 system with far more disk space (larger hard drives) and lots more unused inodes

Dec 13, 2010I am developing a I2C CDROM client driver. The CDROM firmware supports TOC information read through a I2C command. It sends the TOC information in burst ( Interrupts a GPIO pin when it is ready ) and my CPU does a I2C read to read the TOC. When the CDROM firmware finishes sending the last data burst , it informs my CPU that it is done with the TOC, by a flag in the last data burst. I would like to know, which is the most efficinet way I can send these TOC information to userspace?

Slackware :: Disk Space Lost- Root Partition Has Very Little Space Left
Jan 31, 2010Today I was installing a lot of software since I'm just setting up my Slackware system again after a fresh install, and I realized that my root partition has very little space left.
Here is the output of df -h:
Code:
As you can see, I have a 20G (19G here for some reason) root partition, 8G /var, and 86G of /home. I thought this would be plenty since many recent recommendations for / are 10-15G. Now, though, 17G are used up for some reason! How is this possible? I thought a full slackware install only had about 4G of software! I don't have any music or movies or any crazy huge files that I know of, and those would be in my /home directory anyway. Is there any way I can see which files are taking up all this space?
If it's necessary to allocate more space to my / partition, is it still possible to boot up a GParted live Cd, shrink /home a bit, move some partitions to the right, and expand my root partition? I would REALLY prefer I don't have to reinstall since I just spent a ton of time setting up my system again, but if worst comes to worst ... :'-(
