[01:46] Hi folks, I am trying to format ma usb pendrive but it fails -without error- http://pastie.org/1234249 what am I doing wrong here ? thanks [01:47] Looks like the stick didn't like you removing its partition table. [01:48] The file /dev/sdb doesn't exist, which implies that kernel lost contact with the device, and udev removed it from /dev. [01:48] Try removing and reinserting the device; check dmesg before and after. [01:48] <_Techie_> replug the device [01:49] <_Techie_> also, mount -t ext /dev/sdb /mnt/stick/ [01:51] http://pastie.org/1234261 no luck. I swear the stick is not broken...it workes fine befor formating it a minute ago [01:52] <_Techie_> latenite, try -t extfs [01:52] <_Techie_> been awhile since ive had to mount a removable drive, so im a bit rusty [01:53] it's it -t [01:53] so -t ext2? [01:53] isn't it [01:53] <_Techie_> well, i have a feeling that all extX's [01:53] hrm [01:53] <_Techie_> are put under one fs type [01:53] yea, i think you're right... sorry :S [01:54] arrrghhh, _Techie_ I used mkfs.ext3 to format (sie paste) and -t ext3 fails. [01:54] wait [01:54] you formatted a flash card as ext3?!? [01:54] _Techie_: if you look at the error, you can see that the block device doesn't exist; forcing a filesystem type won't help. [01:55] i thought journaled FS are a big no-no on flash cards. [01:55] i always format mine as ext2 or VFAT [01:55] twb, right. but why is taht so? after formating freshly [01:55] arrrghhh, why would the be a nono? [01:56] the journaling screws up the cards i thought... [01:56] not sure how that works on SSD's tho. [01:56] http://pastie.org/1234268 [01:57] does /dev/sdb even exist? [01:57] it might've changed with the replug [01:57] sure http://pastie.org/1234268 [02:00] any more ideas what is screwing that up? [02:02] uhm [02:02] i don't get it, does /dev/sdb exist or not? [02:03] do a 'ls -lah /dev/disk/by-uuid' [02:16] latenite: because your key is crap? [02:16] twb, cfdisk sais: Warning!! Unsupported GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected. Use GNU Parted. [02:16] wtf is that? :) [02:16] you need to recreate the partition table. [02:17] or, perhaps, create would be the correct word. [02:17] latenite: sounds like there was a GPT partition table there, and you didn't correctly remove it. [02:17] Write zeroes over the first megabyte, then mke2fs -j /dev/sdb again.

For something I intend to leave in a back room and forget about I'd use LTS. (or debian stable >.>) [13:28] LTS is biannual, so april 2012 I believe. [13:28] Hobart: .. it will be a vbox host..

[13:48] noaXess: I use 10.04 for most stuff, except some older boxes still on 8.04 [13:48] the 8.04 will be supported until april 2013, so I'm not in a hurry upgrading them... [13:51] My server is providing its DNS and DHCP services correctly, however clients are not able to access the internet.

[13:54] i'm assuming client traffic is going through the server [13:54] ehcah: ^ [13:54] ehcah: is your server a router? [13:54] pmatulis: Yes. I only want the Telco gateway to provide Internet to my server and my server everyone else. [13:55] RoyK: In this case, yes. [13:55] ehcah: have you enabled ip forwarding? have you configured it to NAT the client traffic? [13:56] RoyK: I don't know where to look. I've been through all the files I find to edit. No GUI, Webmin or eBox this time are leaving me stupider than usual. === Ekips_ is now known as Ekips [13:58] RoyK: Is this additional information I add to /etc/network/interfaces [13:58] ehcah: echo 'net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1' >> /etc/sysctl.conf ; sysctl -p [13:58] that will enable ip forwarding === RoyK^ is now known as RoyK [13:59] ehcah: iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s 10.0.0.0/22 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE [13:59] change the ip addresses to the ones the clients have and eth0 to whatever nic is on the internet side [14:00] then try again [14:00] I don't have permission for the first command using sudo?

Did I just become root for that command only? [14:05] sudo -i [14:05] -i == interactive [14:05] disabled root means you can't login as root over ssh [14:06] ah. [14:06] RoyK: Er, you can if you use key-based auth. [14:06] you will always have the possibility to run, say, bash with sudo [14:06] Pici: not on my servers :) [14:06] By default you can. [14:06] yeah [14:06] Using sudo, I get. Actually getting the ROOT prompt, surprised me. [14:07] root... prompt should have said. [14:07] well, sudo lets you run something as root, and now it's running a shell [14:07] meaning you're root [14:07] got it. [14:07] anywy - try -A with iptables [14:08] it won't survive a reboot, but we'll get to that later [14:08] Ran the command succesfully. [14:08] I had already given my eth0 a static IP and set a DHCP range in /etc/dhcp3/ last night. [14:09] Is there something else I should do before turning off DHCP on my Telco Gateway and rebooting my laptop? [14:10] does your linux box get an official ip from the telco when you connect it directly? [14:10] start with checking that [14:11] hey folks - any puppet experts in the room? I would like to discuss a possible idea for a session in UDS. [14:12] No. My gateway get's its external IP through DHCP from the Telco. I assign the gateway an address of 192.168.1.5 and turn off DHCP services. eth0 is statically assigned 192.168.1.25 and DHCP Server and DNS Server are started. [14:12] ok, and then the clients are on 192.168.2.0/24 ? [14:13] btw, no need to disable the dhcp server on the gateway so long as only the linux box is connected to it - dhcp won't pass through a router [14:14] This may not be correct, but I start the DHCP rante at 192.168.1.100-175. I assume the I should have answered you like 192.168.1.0/24 [14:14] never mind that [14:14] that's the dhcp server on the telco's router, right? [14:15] RoyK - It must be the way my devices are plugged into my switches, but I have found the gateway and my server to be in competition sometimes if I do not disable it. [14:15] ehcah: pastebin 'ifconfig -a', please [14:16] ehcah: then the cabling is wrong - use a direct cable (it might need to be crossover, but I doubt it) from the telco router to the linux box. then connect the linux box's internal nic to the switch [14:16] RoyK: That would be my problem then. I am not using eth1 at all. [14:17] How can I pastebin from a putty ssh terminal session? [14:17] eh [14:17] I can not copy and paste? [14:17] you're setting up a router with _one_ nic? [14:17] that won't work [14:18] that is, it might work if you're a good linux hacker, but AFAICS you're not [14:18] so get another nic [14:44] have a 3ware 9650SE raid controller in my server... have build a raid1 and a raid5 in the controller.. but i can't see them in my ubuntu server setup?.. need i a driver to access the raid? i thought a driver with a hardware rai controller isn't needed?? [14:54] =?? [14:54] noaXess: 9650SE should be supported [14:55] RoyK: doesn't work.. hm... can it be cause the raid isn't finaly initialed? [14:55] I don't think so - I think that can be done i the background [14:55] what does lshw say? [14:55] RoyK: so i don't need any driver to use on server setup right? or need i choose the 3w9xxxx driver? [14:56] RoyK: just a moment.. will check [14:57] I've setup a dozen or more servers with 3ware controllers, and it's never been a problem except once where the distro was too old for a pci express card [14:59] RoyK: the raid will be builded in foreground.. so is it then possible that's it's not ready for use? [14:59] i see the controller and can control the attached hd's [15:00] I guess you're right [15:00] RoyK: so build the raid in background and use it while it wil be builded, right? [15:00] sorry.. long time ago i worked with a hardware controller ;).. [15:00] yes [15:00] ok.. [15:01] if you choose to build in the foreground, a reboot will probably interrupt that [15:02] ttx: o/ [15:03] mathiaz: mumble [15:11] RoyK: same... have created a raid1 background and the oder raid5 in he background.. but can't see them in ubuntu server installatio.. lshw isn't available in server install.. [15:12] SpamapS: http://confoo.ca/en <- interesting to you? [15:13] RoyK: lspci will show me the 3ware controller [15:13] hm... [15:15] noaXess: nothing in /proc/partitions either? [15:17] RoyK: no.. [15:17] 10.04? [15:17] RoyK: in the mainboard bios, boot settings i can just choose the 3ware controller.. and not the two raid's i created.. [15:17] 10.04.1 [15:18] it's normal that the mainboard bios doesn't see raid controllers like ordinary drives [15:18] well, after all the talk of not using 10.10 for servers, this is one of the reasons to try it - new hardware... [15:19] RoyK: ok... [15:19] download........ [15:20] RoyK: you wrote that the 3w 9650 is supported.. from who? unbuntu 10.04? [15:21] well, there might be newer firmware revisions around... [15:21] RoyK: ah you wrote: should be.. hm.. trying 10.10 after downloading and burning.. [15:21] we will see.. [15:22] http://pastebin.com/fphEgXDV <-- this is from a 10.04 server [15:22] a cute little 1U pizzabox with 64 gigs of RAM and 2x8-core CPUs :D [15:23] RoyK: yes.. same controller here..hm... [15:23] RoyK: and your setup was without any driver? [15:23] noaXess: this is a 2-port controller [15:23] i have the 4port [15:23] driver is included [15:23] no.. also 2port controller for 8 hd's [15:23] 4 each port [15:24] erm - did't you say you were building a RAID-5 and a RAID-1? [15:24] AFAIK you can't span a RAID-5 over more controllers with 3ware [15:24] Hi folks, can you recommend a benchmarktool? I tried povray and would like to try some others, too [15:24] RoyK: have 6 hd's, 2x 500gb, 4x 2tb.. 2x500gb -> raid1, 4x 2tb-> raid5 [15:24] ah [15:24] ic [15:24] RoyK: oing.. but why does it not warn me?.. [15:25] well, you have two mirrors and a raid5 [15:25] but the raid1 should be used.. or does it fail too? [15:25] no problems with that [15:26] but you won't be able to make a 6-drive RAID-5 with two 4-port cards [15:26] RoyK: have just one controller.. so my setup of the raid's is ok?... on first port there are 2 500gb and 2 2tb hd's.. and on the second the other 2 2tb hd's [15:26] (unless I'm terribly mistaken) [15:26] New bug: #663920 in eucalyptus (main) "public IPs unroutable from instances" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/663920 [15:26] noaXess: looks fine [15:26] i have 6 hd's.. 2x 500gb, 4x 2 tb [15:26] ok [15:27] hm.. what can be wrong? [15:27] newer firmware or hardware revision [15:27] perhaps a new pci id that isn't recognized [15:27] that's quite common [15:27] RoyK: ok.. so try with 10.10 [15:27] yep [15:28] RoyK: and if that fails.. i will boot from a live-cd and send lspci information about the controller [15:28] 10.10 livecd [15:28] yep [15:29] RoyK: for my understanding.. ubuntu will need a driver to work with the controller.. right? [15:30] noaXess: yes, and most drivers are included [15:31] noaXess: the 3w-9xxx driver is indeed included [15:31] but when a driver loads, it looks for a known PCI ID [15:32] that is - I'm unsure about how that works on PCI Express [15:32] * RoyK might be wrong [15:32] anyway - try 10.10 [15:32] if that doesn't work, something may be bad with your setup [15:35] RoyK: 10.10 also won't work.. will use a 10.04 kubuntu to start live.. and check lspci and lshw [15:37] k [15:37] noaXess: how long will it take for those RAIDs to build? [15:39] RoyK: hm... i don't see any progress... i [15:39] there should be a percentage indicator [15:39] perhaps try to destroy them all and only create the root mirror first [15:40] that probably won't take too much time building [15:40] even in the foreground [15:42] noaXess: ? [15:43] hi all [15:43] is there ubuntu preinstall ver? [15:43] preinstall? [15:44] I mean console only [15:44] I want to install server with console only , I don't need all gui and so [15:45]
