Highpoint Rocketraid 2240
by Chris Mauritz 21 Nov '05

Has anyone on the list used one of these w/Linux? We currently use Linux + Cinelerra for editing uncompressed video (and a few dual G5 macs running Final Cut Pro). Current editing stations are getting a bit long in the tooth so I've been mulling over a mass upgrade. 8-) These cards are interesting to me because they are PCI-X and support 4 SATAII drives per multilane/infiniband connector for a total of 16 drives. Multilane is interesting to me because the editor can use a SFF system (tiny desktop footprint) with 1M multilane cables talking to the pile of disks in an external enclosure stashed out of the way with its own redundant power supply. I was going to just order some multilane 3Ware cards, but one of my more technically inclined video editors suggested this card. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Best regards,

iSCSI experiences
by Robin Mordasiewicz 20 Nov '05

20 Nov '05

I just tried an iSCSI connection to a NetAPP filer. I first tried using CentOS-4.2, but the iscsi initiator would not work. Using the command iscsi-ls would not show anything. Without spending too much time trying to figure out why, I tried from a CentOS-3 box. Connecting from the CentOS-3 box worked without a problem the first time. I will try further to get the CentOS-4 box to connect, but for starters the CentOS-3 box connection is stable and fast. I have also bonded two one gig NIC's on both the Filer, and the client, and have a separate iSCSI VLAN. I still have yet to do any benchmarking, but initially things seem ok.

Xhosts file
by Sam Drinkard 20 Nov '05

20 Nov '05

I posted a question a few days back to see if anyone could tell me where the default X0.hosts file should/does reside. Searching the system turns up nothing, and did not find any info in any of the man pages, other than it would reside in /etc, but doesn't. Setting a host access permission does not become permanent, and I'd really like to find out where the thing should be so I can solve that little irritant. Thanks.. -- Snowman

CentOS 4.2 and Adaptect 1210SA
by Ryan Lum 20 Nov '05

20 Nov '05

Adaptec 1210SA with a RAID 0 Intel 815 based mobo 512mb ram During the install, Disk Druid or whatever the partition utility is, sees the first disk but says the other disk is not initialized and only reports 150MB when the array is 300MB. How do I get the CentOS installer to see the RAID 0 array correctly?

YAYYY! I've passed a cognitive coherence test from somebody whose methods of presentation in e-mail are sufficiently poor that I SIMPLY DON'T CARE whether I pass his tests.

1: e-mail is a people skill, you affect people with it. The value of your presentation rises or falls with your skill at presentation. 2: My embedded headless linux targets live in isolated networks, even relative to other computer or network equipment at the target site. At times, the nearest land is 2 miles straight down (ocean floor). 3: These targets are also without anything resembling a linux-aware operator and (ipso facto) must generate NO mail and self-limiting logs of a "usually ignored' type. from the above, SELinux offers me *nothing* I need and costs me something for which there is no reward.

Okay, I give. I would like people to quantity/quality "doesn't really need it." I've really "bit my lip" on this since just after the early stuff, but it keeps coming up over and over. ******************************************************************* This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
