I have a 500GB SATA drive in a USB enclosure that I use to backup my system.My first step was to clone the 500GB drive in my computer to the USB drive.Now I would like to use rsync to copy changes made since that cloning to the filesystem on the USB drive.But Ubuntu will not let me mount the filesystem because it has the exact same UUID as the main filesystem! I don't know how the UUIDs are created, but without a unique UUID I do not know how to do the mount.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was able to create a new partition in my terminal using fdisk.
So basically this is just an additional partition in my currently installed linux (ubuntu). Now my problem is, how can I use that partition or how can I save files or install applications on it?
I tried creating a File system mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1, and I also mounted it, but when I copy files on the directory where I mounted it, it says "Permission Denied". I dont know if Im doing it correctly though.
We are having issues with LVM on CentOS 5.4 both 32bit and 64bit on one particular machine. I just can't get my head around it. Usually a device in /dev/ is created when a LVM Volume Group is created. e.g. if you add a volume group called foo, you would have /dev/foo to work with to access LVs inside the volume group.
For some reason it's not being created. The udev service is running, the volume group is created ok, I cant see anything strange in logs or strace.
I want to know the creation time of a directory or a file. How can I know this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI created an EC2 instance with Fedora 12 x86_64 about a month ago. I have been getting an hourly system log error:mcelog: Cannot open /dev/mem for DMI decoding: No such file or directoryI was ignoring it because I did not notice any implications, until now.I am running MongoDB on this machine, and reads from /dev/urandom are failing. I know reading from /dev/urandom shouldn't fail, so I think this system error may be the underlying problem.Are these two issues connected?If so, is there a way to fix this without having to completely reinstall the OS?
View 5 Replies View RelatedThere's a folder on my Linux desktop which shouldn't exist. The first time I saw it, I thought I'd accidentally copied it from somewhere else, so I deleted it. Now it's back again. So it must have been automatically created by some process, but what can I do to figure out which program is creating it? I think it's likely that if I delete the folder it'll eventually be created again, so I should be able to catch this program in the act if anyone can suggest a technique for doing so. By the way, there are no files in this mystery folder, and its name is the same as another folder I created months ago to hold my personal documents, not something that a program would create to hold its own configuration files or the like.

View 8 Replies View RelatedMy boyfriend has an old IBM Thinkpad that he said I can use to install Ubuntu on and use it as a 2nd computer. Here's the problem, the computer doesn't have a CD drive, but does have USB. I've been trying to get a bootable USB drive created, but with no luck.
The USB drive is 2GB. Which Ubuntu would fit on here? The Thinkpad has a 20GB hard drive, and about 512MB memory. The processor I think is a Pentium III. I've even tried installing Ubuntu through the wubi.exe file, but it won't load. The current OS is a Japanese Windows 98. Do I need a bigger flash drive? The netbook remix version? or something else?
After an upgrade from 8.04 -> 10.04 my system is unable to boot. After a lot of work it seems that the blocking problem is that /dev/md0 is not being created in initramfs so the volume group containing the / file system is not being activated and therefore the boot fails at that point. In /sbin both mdadm and lmv exist and the arrays and volume groups can be created manually using them. The system can then complete booting. Updating initramfs after booting has no apparent effect.
Based on posts I have found I have tried adding raid=noautodetect and rootdelay=240 to the GRUB kernel command line separately and together with no effect, except delaying the boot. It seems that udev is not running correctly so I began digging through the udev rules but don't really understand how it actually works.In /lib/udev/rules I found;
85_mdadm.rules
85_lmv2.rules
If I were guessing (and I am) I would expect 85_lvm2 to be run before 85_mdadm, which is the wrong order. I also found 56_lvm.rules which doesn't seem to do anything. I would appreciate pointers of testing these rules to see what the problem is. It seems all of the pieces are there for this to wok correctly but there is something missing. How can I run or test a single rule? Which udevadm options test these rules,
i have one static IP, how can i turn it into multiple IPs so i can run multiple games on one machine.

Is there a command to list all of the users I, as an administrator have created? It is difficult to tell the users I created from those created by the system by reading /etc/passwd. I thought 'man 5 passwd' would shed some light on this but is wasn't so

But its just need to show only the site files such as index.html and its sub folders.
i think the problem is because of logging in to the server through ftp as normal user,which is created in server. so i think if we login as ftp user we can able to access only the website files.

I can't figure out how to copy a file off a custom RHEL 5 DVD that I created with kickstart after the installation completes and the %post runs. I don't want to run as "%post --no-chroot" because I have a script of system changes that needs to run in chroot. I just want to copy one RPM file into the /tmp so my script can install it. Can I have two %posts, one with chroot and one without? I can't seem to find any RHEL 5.5+ guides for kickstart that can explain to me how to make it work.
