Fedora :: Warning: Palimpsest False Positives In 13?

Aug 30, 2010

I have a new (few months) HP Compaq laptop where I run Fedora 13. A couple weeks ago, it started complaining about too many bad sectors in the HD. What I have done is to remove palimpsest from load-on-start list, so I don't get the annoying message. I know the palimpsest Disk Utility has given problems like this (false positives) in Ubuntu, and F11. So my concerns are:

Is it normal in F13 to get those palimpsest warnings? Or should I consider the idea that my new HD is really failing? If this is a bug in palimpsest, is it going to be fixed soon?

Ubuntu :: LVM With Palimpsest Disk Utility

Apr 3, 2010

I'm working on setting up a new NAS. I installed Karmic desktop on a 160 GB HD using the default settings.

Now I've added three 1TB drives and want to make them a RAID-5 array with LVM on that, and 1 ext4 partition. I want to use LVM so I can add drives and expand the array later.

So far I've been using Disk Utility (Palimpsest Disk Utility) and it's been great! A wonderful addition to Karmic! I got the RAID-5 array setup with no problems using disk utility. So now I have a 2000 GB raid-5 array setup in Disk Utility and I need to get LVM setup.

Problem is: I don't see any sign of LVM in Disk Utility. I've been googling all night and I can't find any documentation for setting up LVM in Disk Utility, just people saying that it's supported.

I tried installing the lvm2 package, rebooting, and then looking around again. No luck.

So, what am I missing? Should there be LVM options in Disk Utility? Where is it? Is there a better/easier way to configure lvm?

Ubuntu :: Damaged Partition With Palimpsest Disk Utility?

Dec 8, 2010

I have a HDD with OS Win with three partitions NTFS.I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on new partition, and I left the old partitions on the disk, because there are a lot of my personal data.When I was looking for how to mount partitions on startup, I was fortuitously to Palimpsest Disk Utility selecting the checkbox on sda2 as a boot, and apply. But I saw that it was wrong and took the check back. And after this was damaged NTFS on the partition sda2. Windows shows the partition as RAW.

CentOS 5 :: Unable To Use REISERFS?

Aug 4, 2009

I follow the wiki about install the files needed in Centos5Plus! I am not able to format the drives with REISERFS. i tried the command mkf2.reiserfs and mkfs.reiserfs. I am able to format them with ext3.

I have been hearing that the guy who developed REISERFS is in jail for chopping up his wife and therefore no more support for it? it that true?

Ubuntu :: How To Convert ReiserFS To Ext2

Sep 14, 2010

I have a installation of Ubuntu on a flash drive that I just finished updating, etc. I noticed that it ran surprisingly slow during all my updates and software installations. I looked into it further and found out that for Flash Drive installations, it is recommended to use ext2 due to it's speed and lack of journaling (to limit the amount of writes to the disk).

I REALLY don't want to spend all the time and effort I have just spentt on reinstalling from scratch! I'd like to convert my partition filesystem from ReiserFS to ext2. How can I do this?

Can I backup all the information, do a new installation using the LiveCD, and restore the backup? What program can I use, and which directories do I need to backup?

Ubuntu Installation :: Using ReiserFS For Seperate /var Partition?

Feb 5, 2010

I'm about to do a fresh install on a new computer, and I plan to dual boot with Arch Linux and Ubuntu. I've been doing some reading on Arch Linux, and apparently one of the little tweaks that many Arch users use to increase performance is to put /var/ on it's own partition using a file system that is good for quickly writing many small files, namely, ReiserFS. I was wondering if this would do any good for Ubuntu. Is Ubuntu's usage of /var similar to Arch's, and if so would using a similar partition setup provide any performance increase?

Ubuntu :: 10.04 - EXT4 Versus ReiserFS (Faster / Better)

May 16, 2010

I just read about reiserfs being way faster than ext4. I am installing lubuntu 10.04 on a Pentium 4 3.06 ht 512ram. Ide 150g this distro will be use only for running a small counter strike source server the system already ave ubuntu on ext4 and win7. So my question are..
1- Can it install my distro on a reiserfs?
2- Is it better?
3- Is this different from other file system. I mean can it be logical?

Ubuntu :: External HD (reiserfs) Won't Automount In Lucid

Sep 18, 2010

My external HD where everything I backed up from my previous install will not mount. It shows up in lsusb, but when I do dmesg:

Code:
[20801.408614] usb 1-3: USB disconnect, address 36
[20804.190095] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 38

[20804.345100] usb 1-3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

Also of note, my main filesystem is reiserfs, so there isn't a problem of not having reiser installed.

Debian Installation :: Reiserfs Missing - Possible To Add On Squeeze Setup

Mar 5, 2011

I have so far used reiserfs formatting both in my previous debian (sarge, etch and lenny) and opensuse (SLED10, opensuse-10.2,10.3 &11.3) and was very happy. When last month I installed debian squeeze I missed reiserfs (or did I miss noticing it?) Though Ext3 is giving me no trouble. I would love to have reiserfs. Is it now possible to change the filesystems without much trouble.

Debian Installation :: Squeeze - Netinstall Don't Support Reiserfs /home?

Feb 10, 2011

I installed the Squeeze with CD-ROM netinstall. My /home is in /dev/hda6, reiserfs format, and I want to preserve it, I didn't make backup, and there is not the reiserfs option in the partition editor of the netinstall, so that it would be formated the home, otherwise it is not used as home, and I can not even mount it. I try to edit /etc/fstab with the UUID of the device hda6 as home. I have just found reiserfs in http://packages.deb.at/squeeze/i386/rei ... i/download.

OpenSUSE Install :: Booting From Ext4 Fails - SDA2 Is Not Reiserfs

Feb 14, 2011

I'm migrating my OpenSuse 11.3 (which was update from 11.2, 11.1 ........ ) to a new hard drive. My partitions were reiserfs and in the migration I'm "converting" them to ext4, the conversion process is simple and it works fine for all of them except the root one:
1) I create a new partition on the new hard disk (bigger than the original one)
2) I format it with ext4
3) I copy all the data with cp -a from the original partition to the new one

I already have all the partitions migrated to the second disk, then I have tried to do it with the root partition:
-I've booted with a system rescue CD and I've done !9 2) and 3) with no problems.
-I've edited and changed al entries in fstab and grub conf (menu.lst) to point the new partitions
-I've reinstalled grub and it seemed It will be no problems booting, but

It begins booting, the grub menu appears, It begins booting the kernel, but suddenly:
waiting for /dev/root to appear: OK
fsck.reiserfs -a /dev/sda2
........
mount -o ro,ad,user_xattr -t reiserfs /dev/root /root
and it fails, because sda2 is not reiserfs, but why does it try to mount it as reiserfs if I'm not saying anywhere it is reiserfs?

This is my fstab:
Code:
#/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160211AS_6PT0V05Y-part2 / reiserfs acl,user_xattr 1 1
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD5000AADS-00S9B0_WD-WCAV91599607-part2 / ext4 acl,user_xattr 1 1
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD5000AADS-00S9B0_WD-WCAV91599607-part1 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD5000AADS-00S9B0_WD-WCAV91599607-part3 /home ext4 defaults 1 0
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3500630A_9QG94AT1-part1 /mnt/backup auto noauto, defaults, users, exec .....

I've booted it also with SuperGrub2 disk and the same thing happened, so I think it's not a grub problem but I don't wknow why it tried to mount the root partition as reiserfs.

Ubuntu Servers :: Slow Performance On File Server (LVM/ReiserFS/SoftwareRAID)?

Aug 18, 2011

It stores all my important stuff, as well as some music and movies.I use a second linux box in my living room to "stream" content via NFS or SAMBA share.The streaming tends to stop several times during playback, and needs to fill up its buffer again before continuing to play.I also have some Windows XP and 7 based computers that connect to this file server.I have noticed that directory listing is VERY slow, and there is a huge lag when I want to save/read a file from/to my home directory.

This is my setup:Ubuntu Server 10.10 64 bit (I have the same problem with 32bit ubuntu)
3 RAID5 arrays with 4 hard drives eachLVM on top of the 3 raid5 arrays.The Logical Volume i use is about 6.5TB, and I use the ReiserFS file systemThis LVM has grown over the years, and has had som replaced disks. So I have used the pvmove, and extend commands a bit.I have tried using IOTop and top to check if there is not enough resources available, but that doens't seem to be the problem.I haven't been able to find out why streaming over the network stops, but I know it is the server that causes the problem.Does ReiserFS have any performance problems with large logical volumes? Would changing to EXT4 or some other FS give any performance gain?

Hardware :: Permanent Filesystem Corruption On Reiserfs - Ext3 And Ext4 - Disk Failure?

Feb 9, 2010

I have been having problems with filesystem corruption on my eeepc 1000H for a long time now. I have tried using different filesystems, kernels and distributions (arch, slackware) to no effect. I am starting to grow suspicious that this problem lies somewhere else, as I haven't seen anyone else having similar problems in such a variety of scenarios.

I have tried testing my ram using memtest86+, didn't come up with anything after a full run through. I also have tried using e2fsck -c to check for bad blocks, it finds none. I had a go at using smartctl but wasn't really sure what I was doing. I did a long test and it came up with nothing anyway.

This problem is in addition to the problems I've been having with my intel graphics chip and KMS. A lot of the time there are lockups when booting into X, which can only be gotten out of by a hard reset. This is sometimes what causes the original filesystem errors. I've stopped messing around with KMS for now to eliminate this but my current system in unbootable. I'm guessing my disk is wrecked but have as yet seen no definitive proof. Can anyone recommend anything that I should do?

I am currently on ext4 with a custom kernel 2.6.33-rc6 (the stock kernel shipping with slackware does not have the elantech extension for psmouse included). When I was using arch, I was just using the stock kernels.

Fedora :: Creating Custom Fedora Install/Live Media

Oct 17, 2009

I've recent begun to want to create a spin of Fedora for my high school to offer as an alternative to Mac OS X and Windows. My first attempt with any distro was to try and use Suse Studio, however nothing with packages that I downloaded myself would successfully compile. I then thought that I might try and use some sort of local program do create it with and tried Revisor, however when I made Live Media, Xorg wouldn't start and when I made DVD Install Media the kernel would kernel panic every time on boot.

Is there anyway to solve the problem with Revisor or are there any alternatives?

I have also tried using Ubuntu with the Ubuntu Customization Kit however that didn't work either considering I have to have it in a virtual machine.
