ChinnoDogI found a shortcoming in KVM last night. It seems to only provide int13 extensions for the first disk.  That crippled by multi boot scenareo.16:03
ChinnoDogssweeny: Are the sides on that tower system just holding it together or are they passive backplanes as well?16:38
ssweenyChinnoDog: one is a backplane16:48
ssweenythe other is structural16:48
ChinnoDogToo bad you can't get those for ATX boards, even if they were both structural. I imagine ATX is too big and would break.16:49
ssweenyi don't see why you couldn't do it16:53
ssweenyjust seems like there isn't much use for it at that size16:53
ssweenyplus does atx allow for the edge connector you would need?16:53
ChinnoDogNo, but there are standard hole placements on the board that could be used to place supports.16:54
ChinnoDogThe use is that you could create a "rack" that doesn't use rails or rack cases.16:55
ssweenythat doesn't seem wise16:57
ssweenyyou need a place for power supplies, etc16:58
ChinnoDogI know. What a pain. If only ATX had an edge connector for power17:02
ssweenywe need a new motherboard standards17:03
ChinnoDoghttp://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#VARCACHEAPPLICATIONCACHEDATA18:48
PennBotTitle: Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (at www.pathname.com)18:48
ChinnoDogThat is very confusing. How can /var/cache both be deletable and be expected to survive reboots?18:49
ssweenyit should be deletable on a schedule determined on a per-application basis18:50
ssweenyso it's not totally volatile but you might want like a week's worth of logs in there18:51
ssweenyat the same time if those logs were lost you can go on living18:51
ChinnoDogIf I could go on living without them then why can't I loose them between reboots?18:56
ChinnoDogs/loose/lose18:58
ChinnoDog(thought I should correct myself before pleia2 corrected me)18:58
