[10:10] <balachmar> Hi, I want to download everything from an s3 bucket onto a external HD. For that I use s3fs, to mount it as a local drive and then rsync to create a copy. However, using tar c /data-dir/ | md5sum on the external hd and running the same command on an ec2 instance (also using s3fs to mount the bucket) results in a different md5sum.
[10:10] <balachmar> How do I know if the download was successful?
[11:24] <kim0> balachmar: what about md5sum'ming individual files
[11:57] <balachmar> kim0: I thought getting one for the entire dir was easier.
[13:00] <kim0> balachmar: yeah but tracking where the difference occurs, helps spot the problem
[13:49] <balachmar> kim0: Thanks for the idea. It seems that the fact that S3 doesn't have directories makes my way of md5summing a dir go wrong. At least for one dir the md5sums of the files are good. An ec2 instance is still calculating the md5sums for the other dir.

[20:14] <daker> hello kim0 ツ
[20:15] <kim0> daker: hey
[23:12] <flaccid> got this python error with cloud-init on debian squeeze (using 0.6.0 natty package) http://dpaste.org/Omy4/
[23:12] <flaccid> smoser or erichammond you wouldn't be around by any chance
[23:23] <benlake> Hmm, I believe kvm requires hardware support for virtualization and UEC/Ubuntu have focused on using kvm as the hypervisor of choice. So I'm wondering if anyone thinks it would be a good idea to put a notice up on http://www.ubuntu.com/cloud/private/deploy and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/CDInstall that says, "Don't bother running NCs without VT support."? Thoughts?
[23:41] <kim0> benlake: the CDinstall page lists "VT extensions" in the min reqs table for NCs
[23:43] <benlake> kim0: ah, indeed it does...
