[10:52] <ogra> lool, why is your padding code so complex ?
[10:52]  * ogra would have used: dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=$pad 2>/dev/null >> $FILE 
[11:48] <ogra> lool, YAY ... padded initramfs works with my latest image build ...

[12:18] <ubot4> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[17:53] <lool> ogra: Uh my padding is exactly what you wrote: -dd if=/dev/zero bs=$pad count=1 2>/dev/null
[17:53] <lool> And BTW that is problematic for RAM issues, but well...
[17:53] <ogra> its way more complex piping dd
[17:54] <ogra> "dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=$pad 2>/dev/null >> $FILE"  vs: "(cat $ifile dd if=/dev/zero bs=$pad count=1 2>/dev/null) | dd of="$ipadded" bs=4k 2>/dev/null "
[17:55] <ogra> so you have two dd processes in yours
[18:03] <lool> ogra: Yes; with differing bs?
[18:04] <lool> ogra: Oh I see your point; right, I could have changed that when I introduced the padded file
[18:04] <ogra> you can actually pad the file directly
[18:04] <ogra> without creating a tmpfile
[18:05] <lool> I need the tmpfile
[18:05] <lool> Because of fis
[18:15] <ScriptRipper> btw, did any of you read this: http://tuxradar.com/content/ubuntu-rewrite-linux-kernel-using-mono
[18:15] <ScriptRipper> full cover :D
[18:17] <Stskeeps> ScriptRipper: now, it isn't totally insane after seeing stuff like Singularity :P
[18:18] <ScriptRipper> it looks like the author in the middle fusioned also Canonical and Novell
[18:19] <ScriptRipper> and they hired Mark as the new chairman of this company also....
[18:19] <ScriptRipper> its the best for today i saw
[18:21] <ogra> ScriptRipper, thats future planning, we'll actually port the mono kernel from the python version once thats finished
[18:22] <ScriptRipper> ah, the difference between the marketing people and the project planning :D
[18:32] <cooloney> lool, i uploaded a kernel deb package at http://people.ubuntu.com/~roc/linux-image-2.6.28-11-iop32x_2.6.28-11.38_armel.deb
[18:33] <cooloney> lool, could you please try it to see whether the bug is still there
