| Kilos | hi inetpro | 08:43 |
| * superfly remembers the early days of Linux... switching distros faster than switching underwear | 09:29 | |
| Kilos | hehe | 09:41 |
| Kilos | power gone. bbl | 10:16 |
| * Kilos wonders what that cut was for | 10:29 | |
| Kilos | swines | 10:29 |
| === Superhuman_ is now known as Superhuman | ||
| Kilos | again. sigh | 11:39 |
| inetpro | Kilos: wasn't me, I promise | 11:41 |
| Kilos | na was pta electric department | 11:42 |
| Kilos | swines | 11:42 |
| Kilos | luckily ext4 seems to handle power cuts well | 11:43 |
| Kilos | would hate to lose this drive | 11:44 |
| magespawn | howdy all | 12:15 |
| Kilos | hey magespawn | 12:16 |
| magespawn | whats up Kilos? not much chatting for sure | 12:16 |
| Kilos | bad head day and tween rests trying to get old pc working with 98 so i can do the floppy thing | 12:17 |
| Kilos | sees a usb stick as floppy D: | 12:19 |
| Kilos | stupid thing | 12:19 |
| Kilos | then tells you it failed to open it | 12:20 |
| Kilos | im so happy i found ubuntu | 12:21 |
| Squirm | [14:41:24] .:***:. Buffer Playback... | 12:47 |
| Squirm | [14:41:24] .:Kilos:. [14:21:07] im so happy i found ubuntu | 12:47 |
| Squirm | [14:41:24] .:***:. Playback Complete. | 12:47 |
| Squirm | lol | 12:47 |
| Squirm | was in the while 20min the power was off | 12:47 |
| Kilos | lol | 12:48 |
| Squirm | Kilos: and it's not the filesystem you need to worry about. it's the hardware | 12:48 |
| Squirm | so ext4 may be able to handle it, but what about the hdd itself? | 12:48 |
| Kilos | yes ive lost a few drives after power cuts Squirm | 12:48 |
| Kilos | but not one since i went to ext4 | 12:49 |
| Kilos | many when i was on winsucks | 12:49 |
| Squirm | personally, I don't think the fs has anything to do with it | 12:49 |
| Kilos | i read somewhere that ext4 is more able to handle frequent power cuts | 12:50 |
| Kilos | but dont ask me where | 12:50 |
| Kilos | yo sakhi lewe jy nog? | 12:52 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 12:52 |
| Kilos | gedink dis jou pc wat hier lurk | 12:52 |
| sakhi | yebo Kilos ek lewe nog besig man. | 12:53 |
| Kilos | mooi, besig is goed | 12:53 |
| sakhi | we lost international connection (flap) for seconds but we back now. | 12:54 |
| sakhi | my afrikaans is nie so goed nie ek probeer ;) | 12:55 |
| magespawn | Squirm: i think it has to do with file recovery and the writing process when the power fails | 12:56 |
| Kilos | oh sorry sakhi | 12:57 |
| Kilos | i forget whose who at times | 12:57 |
| sakhi | np | 12:57 |
| Kilos | but it seems fine to me | 12:57 |
| Squirm | magespawn: but surely you could format that failed drive and it'll be fine again? But for it not to work? | 13:13 |
| Kilos | nope Squirm some are dead | 13:17 |
| Kilos | i think when the power comes on and it wasnt seated properly it burns a boot sector or something | 13:17 |
| Kilos | beyong my understanding but ya | 13:18 |
| Squirm | I don't know what format the bootsector is | 13:20 |
| Kilos | mbr is machine code methinks. i also dont know what the boot sector is | 13:21 |
| magespawn | Squirm: sometimes yes | 13:24 |
| magespawn | i think that tha way fs tells the drive to write affects it when the power goes off | 13:25 |
| Kilos | remember one used to have to park drives | 13:40 |
| magespawn | yup and with win 95 the os did it for you, i think it was win 95 | 13:54 |
| Kilos | now i think thats where the prob came in if power cut before parking | 13:56 |
| Kilos | dunno how linux handles it | 13:57 |
| magespawn | not sure myself | 13:58 |
| Kilos | hehe howerver it does a better job | 13:58 |
| Kilos | bbl gonna try a unetbootin flash | 14:16 |
| magespawn | later all | 15:17 |
