General :: GParted Stop After Next Operation
Jul 19, 2011
I was messing around with my drive trying some different arrangements of partition to get another one inside. overall the result doesn't differ much from the original but while messing with it I done a lot of steps. I thought GParted will do the minimal number of operations but it didn't. it just traced all my operations one by one. this gave it a few days worth of work. As I don't want to loose data I can't hit cancel but I don't want to wait few days for it. Is there any way to tell it to stop after completing the current operation? It's from natty ubuntu live cd.

Is running fsck -f sufficient to ensure my data is OK? Heres what's happenedy system crashed during a gparted operation. I was pretty sure however, that the data was OK since given the size of the drive and the amount of data and were it was when it crashed, I figured the crash occurred while moving empty space.Bottom line is I think the data is OK, but I am wondering what else I can do to check it.When I first ran fsck after re-booting the system it said it was clean. I then did fsck -f and it found and fixed errors in phase 5 (group summary). Now when I run fsck -f I think it's clean?fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2e2fsck 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)

I have 3 Ubuntu installations & a PCLINUXOS, plus Windows XP installed on one hard disk. I still can boot to each one of them and can mount each one using Ubuntu.
The problem "may" have occurred when I reduced the size of some linux partitions using gparted. I still have plenty of space in each of those partitions.
When I started gparted all of the HD was unallocated. I did that from each ubuntu installation and the PCLINUX installation, plus LIVECDs. All indicated the space was unallocated.
When I did an fdisk -l from a Puppy Linux LiveCD I got a normal start and ends of each partition.
When I tried it from Ubuntu installation or live cd, I received the following types of responses:
Code:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda5
Disk /dev/sda5: 28.5 GB, 28566397440 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3473 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -u /dev/sda5
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 3473.There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Plus the Windows partition seems to go over its limits.
Since all of my OS installations are still working, I don't know how critical this is. From reading another post, I understand this might be able to be fixed by making some changes in fstab.

whats the difference between restarting/stopping apache using 'service httpd restart/stop' and apachectl restart/stop. I know that using 'service httpd restart' is actually a script in /etc/init.d/httpd but what about apachectl?

I run SUSE on my machine for a year, but I'm really a newbie on Linux. In the system monitor it states:SUSE LINUX Release 11.2 Kernel Linux 2.6.31.5 -0.1 -desktop GNOME 2.28.0Last week when I rebooted my machine, I suddenly found my machine had no response to any click or typing. When the cursor move to any icons, they can be highlighted, but when I click them, no response at all. The weird thing is almost every time after I reboot the computer, it can work for a few minutes, then stop working. But if I press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, it can be log out.
I think there must be something wrong with my GNOME, 'cause everything seems working fine when I login IceWM. recover the .config file in my home directory. But I don't have this file in my home directory.

I'm writing a script based on dialog and one of it's functions is to perform a restore with dd, of which I would like to show the progress by means of the "gauge" option of the "dialog" utility. I wanted to do this by sending a USR1 signal from time to time to the dd PID, because this results into the amount of bytes already being dd-ed ont the console screen. A simple calculation based on the orginal size would result into a percentage that can be fed to the gauge function of dialog.
The challenge I'm facing now is to launch an external script (I guess with "&" to send it to the background) that sends, let's say every 5 seconds a USR1 signal to the dd PID. That would be no problem, but how do I capture the output of this "kill -USR1" to the original script? I tested this and the output is not sent to standard ouput, so it must be that it is sent to standard error. For now I don't see a way out.

We often require to find an equivalent text command for any GUI operation. Just as an example we click on a folder (say ABC) from the current directory in order to see the contents of that directory. The equivalent command for it to happen would be->
Code:
cd ABC ls Now the thing is that we often don't know what that equivalent command will be. So I want to know that is there any way out to find it. What I want to do is that I shall perform any operation using mouse in the GUI mode(whatever operation it could be) and then I can see a log file to see what I actually did last(rather what the command would have been if I have worked in the text mode)...

When I first received it (used) a few weeks ago, this only happened occasionally and it took a while for a pattern to develop. The 7 hr stretch was listening to music of WCPE.org, but the next day I only could get minutes from the same site It sems to get progressively worse, yet the outside of the case, near the fan or anywhere else,doesln't get uncomfortably warm. I had another unit from the same vendor. He took that back and sent this one after a 24'hour test, but will not answer further communication. Generally I get best results if it has sat shut down overnight, but this morning even that was good for only a few minutes. It does this running XP from the hard disk or Linux from CD. Actually I would like to split the hard disk and put Linux on the second half as the default boot. But it won't run long enough to install anything now!

I am having an issue with HTTPS certification using curl. My curl is configured with OpenSSL. If the certification verification is failed I dont want to terminate the operation, instead I want to continue by just putting a log message. For this I have used OpenSSL SSL_CTX_set_verify() function to set my static C callback function. During HTTPS transaction, my callback is also getting called with first parameter 0 or 1 (depending upon of the certificate verification is success or failure). But even if my certification verification is failure, I want to continue. So I have hard coded to return value as 1 always from my callback function. But still I see the certification error and I don't get the page.

I tried to move 2.7TB of data from my /var/webroot/ partition (4.5TB total in size). I left it to run over night, this morning when I came to check I saw that all data on / paratition is used up and no operations can be done because of the "no space left on device" message.
Code:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0p7 911G 911G 0 100% /
tmpfs 7.9G 0 7.9G 0% /lib/init/rw
[code]....
I freed up several hundred MB from / but still the usage is at 100% and I cant free up any more space or complete the transfer ?

I run a small site and today I've discovered that my site is down. I found that cPanel has flagged the account suspended even though I haven't got any quotas on the account. I don't know what went wrong. I've tried to unsuspend the account in WHM but a certain part of the function failed.
Quote:
safe_userchgid: chown: /home/crocbits/public_html: Operation not permitted at /scripts/cPScript/SafetyBits.pm line 93.
After searching the internet someone mentioned that the problem might lie in the permissions of the public_html folder. I had a look at the permissions and the folder had no permissions d----- When I try to chmod the folder I get this error:
Quote:
chmod: changing permissions of `public_html': Operation not permitted
I have no idea what to do next. All the files in the directory are locked too. I tried to move them but this command isn't allowed either. I ran these commands under the 'root' user in SSH.

I am trying to create a jailed shell for a user Don($UID '500') using my own method(I don't want to use any ready-made "jailkit"). The user don should get a home directory /jail/don instead of /home/don when he login via SSH (So that he will not able to see any other files/directories on the system)
This is what I have done.
Quote:
Code:
It works without any issue ....Home directory changes to /jail/don when I ssh to the system as user don. ie: #ssh don@192.168.0.66
Then I added a chroot command to this code.
Code:
Unfortunately , now I am getting an error message saying that "chroot: cannot change root directory to /jail: Operation not permitted" .. I am not sure how to rectify this error... Is my approach correct to get a jailed shell using /etc/profile file ?

I put the disk in and reboot. Nothing happens. I just get a flashing cursor in the top left hand corner. I then have to switch of the power button to get it to reboot. I have done this a number of time and the results are the same.
Can anyone tell me how to boot from the gparted liveCD?

The following is a screenshot of GParted run on my system. There is a small unallocated space at the beginning of the list. This 1 MiB space is kind of annoying and I'd like to merge with any other partition except /dev/sda1, /dev/sda6 and /dev/sda4. When I right click on the unallocated partition, the only available operation is "New". And, if I click on "New", I get the following error message.
It is not possible to create more than 4 primary partitions
how to go about merging the small unallocated space with other partitions?

I currently have Xubuntu and Mac OS X on my PowerBook G4, however, I recently got a netbook and use Ubuntu via USB on it and now would prefer to have only OS X on my powerbook. I would like to use Gparted to restore/fix my partitions and don't exactly know what I need/don't need and also how to resize my os x HSF+ partition back to full size? An image below shows my current setup (kinda messed up I think.) What steps should I take in Gparted to delete the unnecessary partitions and give OS X it's full size?
