pteaguemralphabet> nope, i mean all the characters are showing up as uppercase...  caps lock off ls shows up as LS, but it does the ls command... if i use shift or caps lock it shows up as LS, but says command not found...  ls / shows stuff like BOOT, ETC, DEV, etc - rebooting fixed it i think09:30

sorenpteague: What's your username on the machine?09:59
sorenpteague: Does it begin with an uppercase letter, perhaps?10:00
pteaguenope10:00
pteaguei've been using linux a while... just the first time i set up ubuntu server10:01
sorenIt's pretty easy to reproduce.10:02
sorenIn a console (when logging in) type the username in uppercase letters.10:02
mralphabeto010:02
=== mralphabet has never seen that
sorenmralphabet: You need to think back to the day when not all terminals supported both upper and lower case letters.10:04
mralphabetsoren: it is possible that predates my experience10:04
sorenmralphabet: Quite possibly. Do you have a long grey beard?10:04
mralphabetsoren: no, I shave ;)10:05
sorenThen you're not old enough. :)10:05
mralphabethah10:05
pteagueit looks like my mdadm.conf file is messed up... it doesn't list any of the drives that are a part of the raid array10:08
pteagueah, i see it's using /proc/partitions ... any idea how i can figure out the UUIDs of certain devices? such as /dev/sda1, etc?10:11
soren/lib/udev/vol_id10:13
mralphabetpteague: /dev/disk/by-uuid/10:13
mralphabetls -al /dev/disk/by-uuid/ specifically10:14
sorenOr just "sudo /lib/udev/vol_id /dev/sda1", for instance.10:16
pteagueok, now i'm confused as to why UUIDs are being used in /etc/fstab instead of just /dev/hda1 for example10:17
pteaguedoes ubuntu automatically rebuild the soft links on boot based on the serial # or something from the devices to keep the UUIDs the same?10:18
pteagueor maybe the person who told me the switch to UUIDs in /etc/fstab because /dev/hda1 may never point to the same device didn't know what they were talking about?10:19
ScottKpteague: What release are you running?10:20
pteague7.0410:20
ScottKUUID is generally the way to go then.  "the person" was on target for machines with more than one drive (or array in the RAID case).10:21
ScottKLooking where mralphabet said is the right place to look.10:22
pteagueyeah, but the 3 drives i'm using in my raid array do not have UUIDs assigned to them...  I'm trying to figure out how to make the raid array be more stable or something... everytime i reboot it states that none of the devices in the array were detected & that there was no raid superblock on sda (or maybe sda1?) & then it looks like it attempts to reimage the raid array10:28
pteaguehttp://pastebin.com/m7c438d4610:31
ScottKIf you are doing it by device name, shouldn't it be md0?10:32
pteagueyes, md0 is made up of 3 drives - /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1, & /dev/sdc1 - after booting it has to put the raid back together again & it's saying the /dev/sda1 does not have a valid raid superblock10:35
mralphabetpteague: grub doesn't like to boot to raid 510:35
pteague/dev/hda1 is mounted as /, /dev/hda2 is swap, & md0 is mounted as /home10:36
pteague/dev/hda is an 5.8g pata hd & /dev/sda-sdc are 400g sata hds10:38
pteaguemralphabet> or is the 'error' being reported because it's initially trying to attach it when linux is booting up & fails, but then puts it together & mounts it later?10:44
mralphabetpteague: if you look at /boot/grub/menu.lst, what is the partition it is trying to boot?10:54
mralphabetie for mine it says: kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-server root=/dev/md0 ro quiet splash10:54
mralphabetin my case, md0 is mirrored pata 80's10:55

pteagueit boots off the UUID that i believe is the UUID for /dev/hda111:15
pteaguedang, i moved the box to where it needs to go & now it's giving me fsck failed & dumping me into admin mode... apparently my md0 is failing - it has an invalid ext2 partition11:17
mralphabetouch11:20
pteagueat least it's /home & i hadn't completely rsynced it yet11:22
m11hey guys11:25
m11i am planing to get dell poweredge 2900 , did any of you tested that server with ubuntu ?11:25
m11http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/pedge_2900?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd&~section=specs#tabtop11:26
pteagueah, it's saying /dev/sda1 appears to contain an ext2 filesystem & also appears to be part of a raid array, /dev/sdb1 appears to be a part of a raid array, & cannot open /dev/sdc1: device or resource busy11:27
pteaguei may just reinstall stuff & see if i can get it to work correctly again11:28
