General :: How To Write To A Rc.sysinit On A Tempfs

Feb 25, 2011

my rc.sysinit script has:
if [ "$FACTORY_RESET" = "1" ]; then
echo 'Reseting to factory config'
mount -o sync,remount,rw /boot
[ -r /boot/default.cf.2 ] && mv /boot/default.cf.2 /boot/default.cf.3
[ -r /boot/default.cf.1 ] && mv /boot/default.cf.1 /boot/default.cf.2
[ -r /boot/default.cf.0 ] && mv /boot/default.cf.0 /boot/default.cf.1
[ -r /boot/default.cf ] && mv /boot/default.cf /boot/default.cf.0
mount -o sync,remount,ro /boot fi

And I need to change last one to rw or comment it out until I write some other part of the installation, otherwise the whole system is ro and I can't alter or install anything. I guess that when my system boots put everything into rw, create the system and then move everythiong into ro, so I am locked out. If I remove the SD card and put into another system, how can I access the script and change it?

General :: Change Permissions Of Rc.sysinit In Run Level 1?

Apr 6, 2010

While playing with my Linux box, I edited rc.sysinit in /etc/rc.d/ folder. But now when I boot into run level 3 or 5, I get complain that system cannot run /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit. I boot into run level 1, and checked its permissions, which is rw-r--r-- . It should be rwxr-xr-x. I tried to use chmod to change its permissions, but it responded that "Read Only file system" Now how can I change its persmissions when in run level 1. In run level 3 and 5, machine does not boot. My box has Fedora Core 2 with kernel 2.6.20.

CentOS 5 :: Can't See The Swap As A Separate Partition Although There Is A 16GB Tempfs Mounted As /dev/shm

Aug 10, 2010

I recently installed Cent-Os on a server and changed the default partitioning to have 2 partitions - 1 main area for everything and a swap partition of 8Gb After installation I cant see the swap as a separate partition although there is a 16GB tempfs mounted as /dev/shm Is this right ?

I have a minimal installation of Ubuntu, with lxde-core and some other apps I really use. Sometimes when I start the system, it hangs and nothing else happens. I hit Esc and then I see:Code:init: Failed to spawn rc-sysinit main porcess: Unable to open console: Input/Output error.I get stuck there, and the only thing I can do is to hold the power button, shutdown, boot again, and pray it will boot fine. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.

General :: Different Write Through Put On The Same Disk?

Apr 5, 2011

I am using kernel 2.6.32.21, and my hard disk is West digital WD10EARS-00Y, 1TB. This disk is just for data, I made 2 partitions on it, each has half. And I have another small disk for system. I am using ext3.

this is my fdisk /dev/sdc
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdc1 1 60800 488375968 83 Linux
/dev/sdc2 60801 121601 488384032+ 83 Linux

[Code]....

I ran some dd to test the write throughput on /dev/sdc2. If I run it in /data2, I got around 70MB/s. If I create some directory, say /data2/dir/, and run dd again, I might get 60MB/s. Sometimes I still get 70MB/s, sometimes I get 60MB/s, differs for directories.

I wonder if this is because the allocation policy of file system, ext3, or this is from my hard drive?

General :: How To Write Grub On Another HD

Feb 5, 2010

I have XP on the boot HD, Ubuntu 8.04 on the other HD, and grub on the MBR of the Windows side. Then the Windows HD went bad and I need to get grub onto the other side so I can change the boot sequence to what was the second HD (the Linux one) and abandon the Windows side. Booting from a live CD is no problem, but I can't figure how to install grub onto the Linux side, which has been partitioned. I know where menu.lst is, and have backups of it as well.

Is this something that needs supergrub, or can a simple write to the proper place be done in a terminal window?

If switching the boot sequence is not enough (don't see why it shouldn't be) then I can also switch the jumper configurations on the two hard disks. But I don't think that should be necessary.

General :: Able To Write On Stdout But Not In A File

I want to keep a trace of the URL I visit, so I use a command line like this:

I also tried redirecting stdout and stderr to /tmp/out, it's still empty. The file has write access. I have no idea what it can be. Is there anything else than stdout and stderr?

General :: Cannot Write To SD Card Anymore

Dec 24, 2008

I am using OpenSuSE 11.0
KDE 3.5.9
Konqueror

I was able to copy 227 images to a brand new 2GB memory card and I am only using 8% of the card and now I can't write to it anymore?

Code:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
df -h returns this : /dev/sdd1
1.9G 136M 1.8G 8% /media/disk-2

This isn't the first time this has happened either. Just the last couple times I didn't really care enough to pursue it. But now I am trying to load a card for my daughters digital photo frame and I can't because now all of a sudden I can no longer write to the drive? The exact error message I get is: "Could not write to /media/disk/image.jpg" and when I try to create a new folder, I get a disk full error message? How in the heck is this possible when I am only using 136MB of 2GB of capacity?
