| bkerensa | hi nathwill | 02:30 |
| nathwill | hey bkerensa | 02:39 |
| nathwill | you're a villain | 02:40 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: Of epic proportions | 02:40 |
| nathwill | massive easter-egg hunt :D | 02:40 |
| nathwill | lolz | 02:40 |
| bkerensa | it is spring after all | 02:40 |
| nathwill | :P | 02:40 |
| nathwill | since i already know half the answers, i'm gonna give myself a 30 minute handicap | 02:41 |
| bkerensa | tgm4883: your silly | 02:41 |
| bkerensa | :D | 02:41 |
| tgm4883 | :) | 02:42 |
| tgm4883 | Gotta love me some contests :) | 02:42 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: if it takes anyone 30 mins to do that then uhh idk if they should be using Linux | 02:42 |
| bkerensa | :D | 02:42 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: tgm4883 did it in 3 mins | 02:42 |
| bkerensa | :P | 02:42 |
| nathwill | oh snap | 02:42 |
| tgm4883 | well I do know everything | 02:44 |
| tgm4883 | I had to look most of those up | 02:44 |
| tgm4883 | I think I only knew 3, and part of 5 | 02:45 |
| bkerensa | Dinner: http://awesomescreenshot.com/0484pc18e | 02:45 |
| bkerensa | btw what is a acceptable pizza tip anyways especially if its only three blocks away? | 02:45 |
| bkerensa | :P | 02:45 |
| bkerensa | I always drop a $5 | 02:45 |
| tgm4883 | $5 sounds fine to me | 02:46 |
| bkerensa | some of the mom and pop pizza places out here have insane prices | 02:47 |
| bkerensa | UFO Pizza is almost $25 for a pie | 02:47 |
| bkerensa | :( | 02:47 |
| bkerensa | and Hammys is expensive too | 02:47 |
| cy1 | That's why I make my own pizza. But it's a challenge to make any kind of dough in colder climates like this... | 02:48 |
| cy1 | give a bigger tip if it's only 3 blocks away or they might send someone over to rough you up. | 02:48 |
| nathwill | ok, now it's whiskey time | 02:59 |
| nathwill | and salmon hour! | 03:12 |
| sbeattie | bkerensa: flying pie. it's also $25 for a pie, but the thicker crusts ones are like two meals. | 03:48 |
| pjizzle | pegasus or sy's is the pizza of choice in the EUG | 05:13 |
| bkerensa | :D | 05:13 |
| nathwill | wow, the flickr app on android is hella slow to upload... | 05:15 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: inform your CEO and ask for the job | 05:17 |
| bkerensa | :P | 05:17 |
| bkerensa | demand a All-Hands :P | 05:17 |
| nathwill | no, all-hands are received for the bi-annual occasions when we get a new ceo :P | 05:18 |
| bkerensa | lol | 05:18 |
| bkerensa | send the pitch up the internal mailing list :) | 05:18 |
| bkerensa | and hope for no walkout | 05:18 |
| nathwill | yeah, i shoulda just used the native camera app | 05:20 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: http://htwins.net/scale2/scale2.swf | 05:56 |
| nathwill | dude, texas is as big as ceres | 05:58 |
| nathwill | ha, minecraft world | 05:59 |
| nathwill | that's awesome | 05:59 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: http://i.imgur.com/AizEG.jpg | 06:15 |
| cy1 | bkerensa: wut | 06:57 |
| bkerensa | cy1: you looking at my horns ^ | 06:58 |

| cy1 | That scale2 thing is... ludicrous... | 07:15 |
| cy1 | bkerensa: So what's with the cops I dun' get it. Surveilling them? | 07:25 |
| bkerensa | cy1: was from when the camps were still in the parks | 07:26 |
| cy1 | ...oh | 07:27 |
| cy1 | I never got to see that. :/ | 07:27 |
| bkerensa | just thought it was funny the guy was wearing fuzzy black horns and a homeland security cop was looking astonished | 07:27 |
| bkerensa | :D | 07:27 |
| cy1 | I guess that could be astonished. | 07:31 |
| cy1 | Funny looking ski hats have long since divested me of any reaction to odd winter headwear. | 07:31 |
| hughessd | anyone awake? i could use some help.... | 11:12 |
| nibalizer | hughessd: with what? | 11:22 |
| hughessd | i am trying to upgrade the company server from 10.04 to 12.04 | 11:23 |
| hughessd | and after the reboot it says it can't mount the root partition | 11:23 |
| hughessd | and thank you for replying, nibalizer | 11:23 |
| nibalizer | hughessd: yikes, does it drop you off in a rescue shell or something? | 11:24 |
| hughessd | yes, it gives me the option of typing 'm' for manual recover (as root w/password) or skipping and continuing with the boot, | 11:24 |
| hughessd | which fails bc there is no hdd | 11:24 |
| nibalizer | yea | 11:28 |
| nibalizer | did you go to the manual recovery? | 11:29 |
| nibalizer | sounds like we need to lvchange -a y or fsck it or something | 11:29 |
| hughessd | yes, it is just the command line | 11:29 |
| hughessd | i did 'touch /forcefsck' | 11:30 |
| nibalizer | okay | 11:30 |
| hughessd | but that didn't force it | 11:30 |
| * nibalizer personally believs forcefsck is lies | 11:30 | |
| nibalizer | did you manually fsck it? | 11:30 |
| hughessd | no i did not | 11:30 |
| hughessd | ill try it when it comes up again | 11:31 |
| nibalizer | did it say 'root did not appear' or 'root had errors'? | 11:31 |
| hughessd | hmmm | 11:31 |
| nibalizer | i keep getting bit by this weird behiavior where the logical volume gets all deactivated | 11:31 |
| hughessd | here is what I can glean | 11:31 |
| hughessd | the first line at the top of the a screen says "root file system check failed" | 11:32 |
| hughessd | but that is only what didn't get pushed off the screen | 11:32 |
| nibalizer | eh no worries | 11:32 |
| nibalizer | get back to the emergency shell and fsck it | 11:32 |
| nibalizer | I can talk you through that if you need | 11:32 |
| hughessd | then when i cat /etc/fstab it has '/dev/sda1 on / ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,user_xattr)' | 11:33 |
| hughessd | so the hd is being mounted, | 11:33 |
| hughessd | just not in time for the xserver or whatever is drawing the screen to catch it and make use of it | 11:33 |
| hughessd | ok | 11:33 |
| hughessd | so if you think the next step is fsck, i'm ready to go | 11:34 |
| hughessd | i should unmount first, right? | 11:34 |
| nibalizer | uh | 11:36 |
| nibalizer | hrm | 11:36 |
| nibalizer | so it sounds like you have your root filesystem | 11:37 |
| nibalizer | what does 'mount' show you | 11:37 |
| hughessd | mount gives | 11:38 |
| hughessd | aw crap | 11:40 |
| hughessd | did it not send all that i just typed | 11:40 |
| hughessd | curses | 11:40 |
| nibalizer | uh oh | 11:40 |
| hughessd | oh well | 11:40 |
| hughessd | mount has | 11:40 |
| hughessd | dev/sda1 | 11:40 |
| nibalizer | the point is what is / mounted on? | 11:40 |
| nibalizer | er what is mounted on / | 11:41 |
| hughessd | ah i get it ,i can't put a slash in front of things... | 11:41 |
| hughessd | grrr | 11:41 |
| nibalizer | haha | 11:41 |
| hughessd | im not good at irc | 11:41 |
| nibalizer | if you double // it lets you | 11:41 |
| nibalizer | /hai | 11:41 |
| nibalizer | or [space]/ | 11:41 |
| nibalizer | /hai | 11:41 |
| hughessd | exact line is; | 11:41 |
| hughessd | /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,user_attr) | 11:42 |
| nibalizer | so yea, you have your root, ubuntu just wants you to fsck it | 11:42 |
| nibalizer | if you unmount root you're gonna have a bad time though | 11:43 |
| nibalizer | do you have a liveCD or something? | 11:43 |
| hughessd | um | 11:44 |
| hughessd | maybe | 11:44 |
| hughessd | i think i have a liveUSB around, | 11:44 |
| nibalizer | if /forcefsck isn't doing it for it | 11:45 |
| hughessd | and at least some old old liveCDs around | 11:45 |
| hughessd | ok, hang on a sec while i go search around.... | 11:45 |
| nibalizer | what does 'fsck.ext3 -n /dev/sda1` show? | 11:46 |
| hughessd | /dev/sda1: clean, | 11:49 |
| hughessd | 2330372/14606336 files, | 11:49 |
| hughessd | 37492553/58418356 blocks | 11:50 |
| nibalizer | hi | 11:50 |
| nibalizer | so it looks, like, good | 11:51 |
| nibalizer | and on reboots it complians that you've got a bad / ? | 11:52 |
| hughessd | yes | 11:52 |
| hughessd | there is probably a way to get more error messages but I can't seem to find them | 11:53 |
| hughessd | besides /var/log/syslog | 11:53 |
| hughessd | and kern.log | 11:53 |
| hughessd | i founda live usb if that helps | 11:53 |
| nibalizer | yea prolly reboot into liveusb | 11:55 |
| nibalizer | then more diagnostics we will perform | 11:56 |
| nibalizer | how long did you get for a downtime window | 11:56 |
| hughessd | i have until 7 or 8 perhaps | 11:57 |
| hughessd | ill get it booted in to the live distro | 11:57 |
| nibalizer | okay | 11:57 |
| hughessd | hm it's saying cd rom drive not found | 12:02 |
| hughessd | i have both cd rom and usb live distros... | 12:03 |
| hughessd | i turned on all ata drives in the BIOS | 12:04 |
| hughessd | fingers crossed | 12:04 |
| hughessd | hm | 12:05 |
| hughessd | not working | 12:06 |
| nibalizer | fuuuu | 12:06 |
| hughessd | this is no bueno | 12:06 |
| nibalizer | yea | 12:06 |
| hughessd | im going to stick the usb in to see if that's recognized | 12:06 |
| nibalizer | okay | 12:07 |
| hughessd | im workign with a Dell PowerEdge 1950 Server | 12:07 |
| hughessd | if that helps at all | 12:07 |
| nibalizer | i have no idea what to do really | 12:07 |
| nibalizer | i think you should ask on ubuntu-server as well as here | 12:07 |
| hughessd | ok, | 12:08 |
| hughessd | i asked in the regular ubuntu room and they ignored me | 12:08 |
| hughessd | this is weird | 12:14 |
| hughessd | it says / isn't ready | 12:14 |
| hughessd | so i push S | 12:14 |
| hughessd | then it says /tmp isn't ready | 12:14 |
| hughessd | so i push S | 12:14 |
| hughessd | then it says UUID = blahblahblah sin't ready (which is the swap) | 12:14 |
| hughessd | wtf is going on, is it just thinking that nothing is ready? | 12:14 |
| hughessd | ok the liveUSB is working.... | 12:19 |
| nibalizer | this is no good | 12:21 |
| nibalizer | fsck everything | 12:21 |
| hughessd | ok | 12:21 |
| hughessd | the USB is plugged in, i went into BIOS to make sure its in the boot sequence | 12:21 |
| nibalizer | fsck the ubuntu drives | 12:22 |
| hughessd | the server is rebooted and it gets to the Unetbootin Screen | 12:22 |
| hughessd | so i just choose 'check disk' | 12:22 |
| nibalizer | woot | 12:22 |
| nibalizer | no wit | 12:23 |
| nibalizer | check disk is like verify the usb driev | 12:23 |
| hughessd | "check disc for defects" | 12:23 |
| nibalizer | boot off the usb drive | 12:23 |
| hughessd | yeah | 12:23 |
| hughessd | that's what i figured.. | 12:23 |
| hughessd | ok | 12:23 |
| hughessd | Trying Ubuntu w/o installing.... | 12:23 |
| hughessd | ok, desktop now | 12:24 |
| hughessd | since im in the usb | 12:25 |
| hughessd | do i have to chroot to the other file system? | 12:25 |
| nibalizer | don't have to chroot | 12:26 |
| nibalizer | just echo /dev/sd* | 12:26 |
| nibalizer | figure out which ones are the ubuntu fses | 12:27 |
| nibalizer | and fsck | 12:27 |
| hughessd | sda, sda1, sda2, sda5 | 12:28 |
| hughessd | im guessing sda1 | 12:28 |
| nibalizer | yea | 12:30 |
| hughessd | hm | 12:31 |
| hughessd | sudo fsck /dev/sda1 | 12:31 |
| hughessd | e2fsck 1.41.14 (22-Dec-2010) | 12:31 |
| hughessd | /dev/sda1: clean , #/# files, #/# blocks | 12:32 |
| nibalizer | hrm | 12:32 |
| nibalizer | try the other ones too | 12:32 |
| hughessd | sda2 said "Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open" " could this be a zero-length partition" | 12:33 |
| hughessd | ? | 12:33 |
| * nibalizer shrugs | 12:35 | |
| nibalizer | i got nothing | 12:35 |
| hughessd | hm | 12:35 |
| hughessd | ill try to other one | 12:35 |
| nibalizer | if it passes fsck then its clean | 12:35 |
| nibalizer | why would ubuntu not let it boot | 12:35 |
| nibalizer | is there anything relevant in dmesg /var/log/syslolg /var/log/messages? | 12:36 |
| hughessd | sda1 is clean, sda2 is zero size and sda5 is sqp | 12:36 |
| hughessd | swap | 12:36 |
| nibalizer | hrm | 12:36 |
| pjizzle | sorry hughessd! | 14:30 |
| hughessd | :) | 14:31 |
| hughessd | if you're here to help then no need to apologize | 14:31 |
| hughessd | im at wits end.... | 14:31 |
| pjizzle | well, in my many failed linux installs and upgrades, i've never encountered that | 14:32 |
| pjizzle | post on ubuntuforums.org and wait a few days...someone can help no doubt | 14:33 |
| hughessd | ... | 14:34 |
| hughessd | this is the company LTSP server | 14:34 |
| hughessd | many people need this to work today | 14:34 |
| hughessd | ive been here since 11pm last night | 14:34 |

| bkerensa | nathwill: You cant grab all the charms :P | 18:16 |
| nathwill | eh? | 18:16 |
| nathwill | i grabbed 2? | 18:16 |
| nathwill | i think there are many more pieces of software... | 18:17 |
| bkerensa | i know... I just need moar for this contest | 18:17 |
| bkerensa | :D | 18:17 |
| nathwill | i'm just trying to make things more complicated for the people in the contest | 18:17 |
| nathwill | make them earn those prizes | 18:17 |
| bkerensa | my landlord offered me a entire month rent if I painted the unit next door | 18:17 |
| bkerensa | lulz | 18:17 |
| bkerensa | Not a chance was the response | 18:17 |
| bkerensa | :P | 18:17 |
| nathwill | haha | 18:19 |
| nathwill | lots o' work | 18:19 |
| bkerensa | :) Yeah and so far I have not paid full rent for the last three months | 18:20 |
| bkerensa | since I have been doing improvements which I bill him for | 18:20 |
| bkerensa | :P | 18:20 |
| nathwill | nice | 18:22 |
| nathwill | ugh, home inspection just came through | 18:39 |
| nathwill | making the house smell like salmon last night may not have been my best idea... | 18:39 |
| bkerensa | LOL | 18:40 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: :) what did they have to say? | 18:40 |
| bkerensa | :P | 18:40 |
| nathwill | nothing. | 18:40 |
| nathwill | they came in, wandered around, and left | 18:41 |
| nathwill | it took all of about 3min | 18:41 |
| nathwill | but we'll see if i get a letter | 18:41 |
| nathwill | our office is a disaster, because we're reorganizing everything | 18:41 |
| kees | nathwill: you going to UDS? | 18:41 |
| nathwill | kees: nope. i'd like to, but can't really afford to, we're saving for a down payment on a house | 18:42 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: apply for membership then apply for sponsorship next cycle? | 18:42 |
| * bkerensa will likely not go next cycle | 18:42 | |
| bkerensa | :P | 18:42 |
| nathwill | bkerensa: yes, i plan on applying for membership soon. you've convinced me that Ubuntu Membership is not like membership in the Hitler Jugend | 18:43 |
| bkerensa | ;p | 18:43 |
| bkerensa | maybe I will be on the membership board when you apply | 18:44 |
| bkerensa | heh | 18:44 |
| bkerensa | :D | 18:44 |
| nathwill | haha, that'd be cool | 18:44 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: not for you :P because I would not vote | 18:45 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: members get a fancy lwn.net premium acct | 18:46 |
| bkerensa | and a sixxs.net acct like slangasek has although they declined me one =/ | 18:46 |
| sbeattie | bkerensa: he.net will give out ipv6 allocations for free. | 18:47 |
| sbeattie | and they're not as.... idiosyncratic in who they choose to give them out to as sixxs.net | 18:47 |
| slangasek | oh, are sixxs being stingy now? | 18:48 |
| bkerensa | they said my proof of address was insufficient | 18:48 |
| bkerensa | =/ | 18:48 |
| slangasek | wat | 18:48 |
| slangasek | I don't remember being asked for my address | 18:49 |
| bkerensa | well when I registered they said my ip's geolocation did not match the address I provided or something | 18:52 |
| bkerensa | then asked me for a copy of my photo id and mail and my photo ID is still a California so yeah idk | 18:52 |
| nathwill | he.net is the way to go | 18:52 |
| bkerensa | was not worth the hassle | 18:53 |
| bkerensa | :P | 18:53 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: I got one setup just now but no idea how to create the tunnel from Ubuntu | 18:53 |
| bkerensa | :D | 18:53 |
| bkerensa | where can I RTFM? | 18:53 |
| nathwill | they has instructions... | 18:53 |
| nathwill | they has whole series of task-based tutorials | 18:53 |
| nathwill | very cool | 18:53 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: have you checked out the iTwin? | 18:55 |
| nathwill | is that the magical usb cloner thing? | 18:55 |
| nathwill | yeah, it looks pretty cool... have doubts about it working with linux | 18:56 |
| nathwill | in linux that technology is called "scp" | 18:56 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: MBA is sending me some :D | 18:56 |
| bkerensa | They are also sending me Verbatims new V3 Thumbdrives which are USB 3.0 | 18:56 |
| nathwill | ah. lemme know how it works out... if it works between linux and windows boxes without too much hair-pulling, i might get some for me and the wife | 18:56 |
| nathwill | slick. | 18:57 |
| bkerensa | the wife uses redmond products | 18:57 |
| bkerensa | >.< | 18:57 |
| nathwill | yeah... mine too | 18:58 |
| bkerensa | she was going strong on Ubuntu for awhile but Unity on 11.04 was killing the buzz | 18:59 |
| bkerensa | anyways I better get ready.... My mum is coming to help me plant flowers in front and a bunch of veggies on the patio | 18:59 |
| nathwill | sweet. enjoy | 18:59 |
| nibalizer | hughessd: figure it out? | 22:52 |
| hughessd | nope | 22:52 |
| hughessd | im trying to figure out to to save the data and reinstall the LTSP environment | 22:52 |
| hughessd | i haven't been able to figure out what could be keeping the system from booting if the hd is recognized as clean after a fsck | 22:54 |
| bkerensa | >.< | 23:49 |
| bkerensa | i kno u has wat going on the firefox way you kno fix it k? | 23:50 |
