[Fwd: [suse-amd64] OFF-TOPIC - *very* bad]
by William A. Mahaffey III 15 Nov '05

I saw this on the SuSE AMD64 list & decided to pass it along, since it seems like a sneaky problem. Later posts confirm it is *NOT* AMD64-specific, nor SuSE 9.3 specific .... -- William A.

Jinzora and mounted file system
by Darryl L. Pierce 15 Nov '05

15 Nov '05

When I setup my system, I created a file system (/dev/hda3) that I mount as /var/music. I installed Jinzora on my system and want to use it as the frontend for listening to my MP3s. However, when Jinzora tries to access anything on /var/music it complains that it's an invalid file system. I can use sound-juicer to rip CDs and write them to that file system, though. I also created an alias for Apache to host that directory and that also complains that it's not accessible, so I'm thinking there's a permissions problem. The mount point and the files on that file system are owned by apache.apache so that's not the problem, I'm assuming. Any ideas? If I copy the files to a a directory that's *not* a mount point then Jinzora reads the files just fine, even if that directory's not an Apache alias... -- Darryl L.

Re: [CentOS] Turning root partition into a RAID array
by chris hammond 15 Nov '05

RIP (Recovery is Possible) also has a script to allow you to install and boot it from USB flash/pen drive. Chris >>>spamcatcher(a)lantrix.no 11/15/05 1:03 pm >>> >That's the ticket. I wonder if anyone has tried building a "rescue USB >thumb drive" since the 1GB devices are so cheap these days. That would >be great for this kind of situation. FWIW, I'm booting my firewall from an usb pen drive with devil-linux installed, so a rescue environment should be doable. But then again, devil-linux works like a rescue environment for CentOS anyway. :) Regards, Harald -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Re: selinux stuff - I just don't get
by Brian T. Brunner 15 Nov '05

15 Nov '05

Fixing it isn't my job, that's why! I got other strange fish to fry (like the frigging compiler), if SELinux *couldn't* be disabled, that would inspire an immediate decision to drop the distro. cold. Fix it if it pleases you to do so, *please* understand I'm plenty busy with the things I'm paid to do, and have *my* *own* hobbies & distractions for the free time. When SELinux is ready for The Big Time (meaning it doesn't break other apps), ship it my way!

Rescan harddisk size without rebooting
by kadafax 15 Nov '05

15 Nov '05

Hi list, I have a SAN attached to a CentOS 4.2 server. I have expanded the size of the virtual disk within the SAN (by adding a new HD to the disk pool) and need CentOS to see the new size (CentOS see it as /dev/sdb). I'm using LVM. Do you know a method for the Volume Group to see that one of its harddisk is now bigger, without rebooting (it's not a problem with a reboot but since the LDAP directory is on this server, it is problematic). Thanks. kfx

Not a problem. I see it frequently. What's happening is that sudo doesn't ask for a password within "a few" of having gotten a good password. I have noticed that if I wait any significant period of time, I do get the challenge again. This is on CentOS 4, i686.
