How to get the Q2 patching logs of particular server (Linux 2.6.9-100.EL)

patch version is:

I have a script: `cd $FILEPATH && patch -i $TMPFILEA2$FILETMPPATH` Variable $FILESPATH is = /tmp/ardiff.AvUUGfOKa2/a/hello/ and Variable $TMPFILEA2$FILETMPPATH is = /tmp/ardiff.AvUUGfOKa2/b/hello/hello.c.patch. I don't know, why is it no working from script file, it write me message to terminal: ./ardiff.sh: line 242: patching: command not found.
But I have no PATCHING command there!!!! The paradox is, when I want to patch it from terminal (I write it to terminal by keyboard, it works).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI believe my Dell laptop at home is sucko full of viruses and malware....been cleaned and recleaned multiple times but seems to just come back.I'd like to start over fresh. I'm thinking I should reformat and wipe the disk clean, and do a fresh Linux install. I have decent computer skills, but wondering if someone could share the basic steps with me....ie
1. if necessary, reformat and partition hard drive.
2. load linux os cd
3. load/install linux windows gui.
4. suggested tools/apps for basic computer use like browser for surfing, office type tools like Word, or Excel, power point. etc.
I've been trying to use a find command with -exec to find the differences between identically-named files in different paths. My initial attempt was to do something like this:
Code: find trunk/ -type f -not -path '*.svn*' -exec diff '{}' `echo '{}' | sed 's/^trunk///'` ;
Unfortunately this does not work at all as expected (the diff ends up executing on the same file)! I have narrowed it down to the subshell (inside the ``) but beyond that I have no idea. For some reason the sed, though written correctly, does not perform the substitution. I've changed the diff to echo and played with the sed command and the only way I can get it to perform _any_ substitution is to use .* as the regex. Even s/.*trunk.*/SUB/ doesn't work. Any insight into the inner workings of -exec/subshells/pipes or some crap I'm missing? Don't worry about rewriting the command to make it work; I simply swapped the paths and got rid of the subshell nonsense and everything works fine.
is there an easy way for me to get the hardware specs of a linux machine, such as number and type of processors, RAM, BIOS version, # of power supplies, etc from a command line?
I'm dealing with Dell servers, but even if i can just get number and type of processors and RAM config, that'd be great. I know how to easily do it in Windows, no clue on Linux.
Currently I backing up the MBR, the C and the other partitions to an external USB HDD and from there I restore them if needed. I use the SystemRescueCd and commands like dd if=/dev/sd* of=/mnt/PC_name/backupmbr.1 count=1 bs=512 and ntfsclone --save-image --output /mnt/PC_name/PC_name_c.img /dev/sd*1 etc. I want to clone the HDD the way, however, that I omit the external USB drive. I want to connect the new HDD to the PC and do the cloning directly from one disc to the other.
My questions are:
- Can you provide me with the exact command?
- Is that a difference if the disc is SATA or IDE?
- Can I copy the disc even if the old disc don't wan to boot?
The OS is Windows on the disc I want to clone.

I'm trying to install PyPedal but was overwhelmed by the steps. Here is a link to the program:[URL]..The first problem is, on this page [URL].., the package is described as .tar.gz, however when I try to download, the package is a .egg I searched online since I never dealt with a .egg, some suggest to use the unzip command others have used the command without success.
The second problem is, I have to install Python which I have no experience with. This the Python page[URL].all the Linux files seem to be source tarball. What would be the best way to install a source as I have never done this before? The third problem is, which of the third-party extensions used by PyPedal listed in this link I could skip installing [URL].. . All I interested in is getting the numerical result that this program produces. Assume that I have download the PyPedal and Python files to the /home directory.

View 4 Replies View RelatedCan one perform an installation of CentOS 5 (5.4) so that the system is up-to-date at the time of the first boot (i.e. Anaconda will pull and install the 'latest' versions of the packages directly, and the user needn't run `yum update` | `yum upgrade` after the system has been installed)?
If this is doable at all, is it possible to accomplish without making use of a personally custom-crafted-and-hosted repository (i.e. can one of the official CentOS mirrors be used)?
Also, I'm not talking about creating an install DVD containing the latest versions of the packages, but rather, if the netinstall media can be used to perform this particular type of installation.
I am using debian 5.04 + LXDE. In the past, I sometime encounter problems such as the distro broken after performed a full apt dist-upgrade or upgrade. Now, I am more conservative, I am using apt safe-upgrade.
I want to know are there anyway to do a better safe upgrade for debian without breaking the distro?
I want to perform an e2fsck with the y switch (so I dont have to answer yes to every question) on two volumes on a server the next time I restart it. I don't want to do a shutdown -rF because 1) I dont want to check the other volumes and 2) it seems when I do that, the e2fsck doesn't keep restarting itself over and over to fix all the problems. Seems like it runs once, then if it fails it drops you to the repair console in single user mode. I'd rather just have it start the check that will keep repeating over and over right away, because I know it'll take more than one pass.

For example I want to change the rights to a file, but Nautilus tells me I can't because I'm not the owner.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm sure this is possible but I can't figure it out. I have a file formatted like this:
Code:
>SEQUENCE1
FGFD665:?@663:BBBBAA?A@<<4!1004699<7444399>???888455555?AAA?AABBB@@@<<<34
>SEQUENCE2
>&<4!1004699<7444399>???888455555?AAA?AABBB@@@<<<34BBB@@
>SEQUENCE3
???888455555?AAA?AABBB@@@<<<341004699<7444399>???888BBB@@
The odd-numbered lines containing >SEQUENCE# are the headers and the even-numbered lines containing a variety of characters represent DNA sequence read quality scores.
I want to replace all of the greater-than (">") symbols in the quality scores (even-numbered lines) with a "0" but I want to leave the greater-than symbols on the odd-numbered lines alone. I would just use sed -i '/^>/! s/>/0/g' $FileName but sometimes the quality scores begin with a ">" as well.
I'm sure there is a simple modification of a normal sed command with an "n" inserted somewhere but I can't figure it out.
All of the guides I could find online were from 2004 and they no longer work. someone create a step by step guide? I have Apache working, but PHP does not work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get my head around compiling programs, and need some things clarified. Can anyone confirm or deny my understanding so far:
1) Program is written in high level language, such as C. File(s) of the program are the 'source code'.
2) Program is then 'compiled' to turn it into low-level code that is both hardware - i.e. Intel/AMD/ARM processor specific, and also Linux distribution specific. This resulting files are called the binaries.
3) I can go from source code to installed and usable program by doing these steps:
./configure
make
make install
