Programming :: Start A Process And Send Input To It In A Shell Script?
Jun 9, 2011I'm building a Linux From Scratch system and partially automating it. I will likely want to do it again, and I would like to try to almost completely automate it.
My current approach is a script that takes an input file and sequentially runs each line in a new instance of bash. If one fails, it gives me the number of the step that failed so that I can use the "--step" option to resume after I fixed the issue.
This has some problems:
A varible created on one line will not be accessible on the next line. This is because each line is run in a separate shell (the reason for this is so that the commands in the input file and the script's internal variables can't interfere). You can't switch users or use chroot, again because each line is run in a separate shell.
What would be nice is to be able to start a bash process in the background and send commands to its stdin. I guess that a named pipe would work, but the named pipe will be gone after a chroot. Is there a way to do it without relying on the filesystem? Also, how do I know if the command failed?
Programming :: Count Number Of CD-ROMs On A System Using Shell Script
Apr 7, 2010I am trying to get the count of number of CD-ROMs attached with my Linux system using a bash shell script. I have decided to use the following method for it:
Code:
debian:~# cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info | grep "drive name:"
drive name: sr0 hdb
So basically I know that there are two CD-ROMs attached to the system. Now there can be three also like this:
Code:
debian:~# cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info | grep "drive name:"
drive name: sr0 sr1 hdb
All I want to do is in my shell script to get the count of the devices in a variable using the above command.
Programming :: Perl About System Command / Fails If The Standard Shell Is Dash And Not Bash?
Jun 30, 2011I am trying to fix a perl script, and I really suck at perl. But I think this problem will be easy for people who know it.
The problem is, I have an old setup script someone wrote many years ago. It fails if the standard shell is dash and not bash. The only way I've gotten it to work is to point /bin/sh to bash. I looked thru the script and it uses "system" many places, and I think that's the problem.
I searched for it and found this link:url
My plan is to include this function:
Code:
sub system_bash {
my @args = ( "bash", "-c", shift );
system(@args);
}
Then I could simply change all calls to system into system_bash and it should work?
The parameter to the system calls is usually some variable. What if the parameter is a list already? Do I need to test for it somehow, and if it's a list, prepend "bash" and "-c" to the list? How do I do that?
In the script there are lots of places like this:
my $error = system($cmd);
if ($error) {
die/warn "some error message";
}
Shouldn't there be a return in the system_bash function?
Programming :: Shell Script And Administration Of A System - Change Or Set The IP Address And Subnet Mask
Aug 26, 2010tasks of an administrative level that we can use Shell Script to automate them. It's a kind of homework for me to figure out how to automate those tasks. Using PHP and Shell Script design and develop a Web Interface to change or set the IP Address and Subnet Mask of the UNIX / Linux System. The related services must be restarted automatically for the new IP Address and Subnet Mask to take effect. No user name and password should be asked for when using that Web Interface. How would you do it?

Programming :: Start Video Resource Manager In System?
May 5, 2010I am trying to develop a video resource manager in Linux.By that what I mean is, if two applications (may be running in two different machines) are trying to play videos, the video resources will be served by this video resource manager (running at a center location). Pardon me as I donot have much idea about video resource handling in Linux , first of all , it is feasible to have this kind of a layer, in between the applications and the available resource hardware.
Kindly give me some pointer as to how do I start? Pl. give me some reference URLs.

EDIT This question is resolved by using:

Jun 20, 2011I have Windows Vista in a primary partition & Fedora 14 in a logical partition.
Recently, I increased the size of the extended partition and created another logical partition inside it. I formatted the new logical partition from Vista.
After reboot, instead of the list of operating systems, I started getting "grub>"
I searched on the internet and modified entries in /boot/grub/grub.conf, from (hd0,4).. to (hd0,5)..
I still get the grub prompt, but if I enter " configfile (hd0,5)/boot/grub/menu.lst " it shows the os list & I can use Fedora.
How can I configure the system so that it shows the list of os instead of "grub>" ?

View 9 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: High IOWait - System Starts To Slow Down
Jan 5, 2010I've been having a problem in Ubuntu 9.10 recently where starting about 2 minutes after startup my computer slows down and becomes unresponsive. I believe the problem is associated with a high IOWait because I have the system monitor applet on my Gnome Panel and it displays 100% IOWait every time my system starts to slow down. I have tried booting into other kernel version and the problem persists. I don't really know what IOWait is or how to diagnose this problem further. I've looked around online and it seems like you have to find a specific process that is causing the IOWait, but I don't understand how to go about doing that.
