Symmetria*sigh*05:02
Symmetriapiece of advice for all of you05:02
Symmetrianever, ever, ever, ever, ever buy cisco high end routers if you can avoid it05:03
* Symmetria hates 05:03
SymmetriaI swear if I never have to order another piece of cisco gear again in my life I will be happy05:03
Symmetriabig expensive pieces of crap that are full of software bugs :( 05:04
* Symmetria wants to replace all of them with junipers05:04
* nlsthzn thought cisco was the bomb05:05
superflySymmetria: I thought you said that cisco is the bomb05:05
Symmetriaheh superfly I said cisco makes fast routers, way faster than a lot of the other cheap crap05:09
Symmetriabut of late05:09
Symmetriatheir stuff has been giving a LOT of problems05:09
SymmetriaWe're buying more and more juniper gear now05:09
Symmetriathe problem is, some of these issues are soooo hard to debug05:10
superflybtw, Symmetria, how's the server upgrade coming along? when are you expecting the kit to arrive?05:10
Symmetriawill know that as soon as the hardware guy arrives05:11
SymmetriaIm hoping this week or mid next week05:11
SymmetriaIm going to get Patrick to go do full firmware upgrades on the current server today though to see if it puts an end to the prboelms we've been seeing (and the reason the server is offline right now)05:11
Kilosmorning superfly and everyone else05:31
Symmetriaheh gawd when you start doing really deep network debugging, there are some really... interesting commands... hidden away on routers 05:54
Symmetriaif you know how to turn them on that is05:54
Symmetrialol, on a cisco, type service internal and then start issuing certain show commands and it starts doing things like packet header capture off the asics for you to analyze 05:55

Kilosevening all. found an interesting tool for fixing mbr with grub and grub219:07
Kiloshttp://download2.berlios.de/supergrub/super_grub_disk_0.9799.iso19:07
Kiloscand even boot an OS that doesnt boot on its own19:07
Kiloscan19:08
Kilosand i first went to an ubuntu site then got the info from there19:10
inetproKilos: does that mean your problems are just grub issues?19:16
Kilosyip inetpro  looks like but my 80g still giving probs19:19
Kilosinstall xp and works but wont take maverick19:20
Kiloswill try this tool on the 80g tomorrow19:20
Kilosits actually the mbr not grub19:21
Kilosthat tool fixes mbr as well19:21
Kilosthere are 2 iso's for grub and grub219:21
Kilosnot sure what the site address is anymore must be that link minus the last bit hey?19:22
Kilosand i got 9.10 running on my overclocked P3 with 192m ram19:23
Kilosso if the P4 crashes i am not without contact again19:23
Kilosand i have a custom cd made with remastersys which i must still try. made here on p4 with an updated maverick19:26
Kilostook a while to work out how to get it to cd. but only 292m so dunno if it can all be there19:26
Kilosmaybe its well compressed19:27
Kilosone thing about maverick i dont enjoy too much is having to install aptitude and gedit etc on their own 19:28
Kilosbut its much better than karmic with the close windows X on the right. kinda hard to remember where to find them when swopping from one to the other19:30
KilosMaaz, coffee on19:39
* Maaz puts the kettle on19:39
KilosMaaz, with cremora19:39
