Hi All,
On my gateway server I'm Installing CentOS on a flashdrive. is that a bad
idea? the server keep hang, I can ping the server from the LAN and from the
internet, the internet connection from LAN to internet is OK but another
service is down, ssh, VPN (PPTPD) and another service. Even the console is
unresponsive so I have to reset the server. Last time when I still can do
SSH to server the / drive is mounted read only, when I try to remount rw it
said error write protected but the flash drive itself have no write
protection. I'm wondering is using Flashdrive on server OS is a bad idea?
anyone have similar experience? thank you.
regards,
