theblazehenty Vince-0 07:32
Kilosisnt amazon stuff to buy?07:33
Vince-0Its a good place to start but it won't include absolutely everything in the exam. The layout doesn't exactly follow the LPI objectives in order 07:33
Vince-0yep07:33
Vince-0you could start with the exam objectives on the lpi.org site and work from there using as much material you can find07:34
theblazehenty Vince-0 07:34
Kilosisnt the book the monkey gave us up to date07:34
Kilosit wgets lekker and free07:34
Vince-0ya but it is a bit old for the newest revision, let me check the dates07:36
Kilosall the foss and floss then you go buy a book07:36
Vince-0ya to win the exam easier07:36
Kiloshehe07:36

Vince-0that's a wiki page, dunno if a wget will give you a usable page07:41
Kilosah07:41
Vince-0I tried some of the practice exams linked on the lpi.org site - they're not that easy07:44

theblazehenhi nocware 15:28
kbmonkeyhello15:28
nocwareyeh theblazehen#15:28
nocwarekbmonkey15:29
Kilosyo kbmonkey 15:35
KilosMaaz, seen magespawn 15:36
MaazKilos: magespawn was last seen 18 hours, 55 minutes and 40 seconds ago in #ubuntu-za on freenode [2013-08-26 22:40:42 SAST], and has been online on freenode since 2013-08-23 14:52:55 SAST15:36
theblazesboti've gone15:36
nocwareSo, Kilos when  i created a separate partition  for home the problem seems to have disappeared.15:36
Kiloswhew15:37
Kilosdid you make seperate partitions to start with?15:37
theblazesbotrun15:37
nocwareNope. jst did it 2de... 15:37
Cantide2de == today ?15:38
Kilosi always make at least 3. root boot and home and on large drives i add a storage partition at the end15:38
nocwareToday.15:38
nocwareYes.15:38
theblazesbotrun15:38
nocware@Cantide15:39
Kiloswe dont use @ on irc15:39
nocwareIm not so sure abt making one for boot...i'll leave it as is.15:39
Cantidei don't mine the @thing :)15:40
=== theblazehen is now known as thing
Cantideyeah, i think just a separate home partition is enough15:40
Kiloswhen you install you make them but you can make just root and home15:40
Cantidei will do that for my next install i think15:40
=== thing is now known as theblazehen
Kilosthe advantage of having a home part is that with a reinstall you dont lose all your setting and stuff because you install but dont format /home15:41
kbmonkeyIm back tonight Kilos 15:47
Kilosi see so15:47
Kilosim trying to install centos on other pc to use for the class15:48
kbmonkeyhey did we not use @name before in irc days of yore? lol15:48
kbmonkeynocware, a boot partition is not required. it is used more for server installs or special occasions15:49
Kilosits twitter peeps that have that habit15:49
kbmonkeyno, @ was used waay before anyof social networks existed man15:50
kbmonkeyin roguelike games, your avatar is the @ symbol. since then it signals a player or user15:50
CantideKilos, that also introduces problems when old, bad settings are kept when you want a fresh install - especially when changing versions15:51
Cantideor ChanServ >_>15:51
theblazesbot/msg nickserv15:51
Cantideops '-'15:51
theblazesbotoh okay15:51
Kilosya if there are bad setting or some corruption  but it can save lotsa hard work if your /home wasnt corrupt15:52
Cantidetrue that15:52
kbmonkeywhich CentOS do you have Kilos ? I have 5.615:52
kbmonkeyI remember that 6 came out...15:52
Kilos515:52
Cantidei only really reinstall though if my installation is broken or if i'm changing versions, in which case keeping my /home is a bad idea15:52
theblazesbotsomeone please link the octothrope thing15:52
Kilosand old one from nuvo15:52
theblazesbotrun15:53
kbmonkeyja then we have the same Kilos 15:53
Kilosbut it be stupid15:53
kbmonkeyhow so?15:53
Kilosonly got a 6g drive in but it wants to install on hdc15:53
Kilosthen says its too small15:53
Kilosshould be hda if anything15:54
kbmonkeyoh. can one choose features and smallify the install?15:54
kbmonkeyyou have two drives in there?15:54
Kilosyo grant15:55
Kilosai!15:55
Kilosthe thing wants to install to eth015:55
Cantidethat's your network interface15:56
Kilosnope only the 6g but it must be seing the eth to router15:56
kbmonkeyeh? 15:56
kbmonkeyhow about changing it Kilos 15:57
Kilosand that means it dont even see the 6g with xp on15:57
kbmonkeyI'm booting it in kvm now15:57
kbmonkeyhang on.. need to get this support request for my web host done.. damn thing does not see rsync15:58
Kilosright im in a kinda parted tool15:58
Kilosill sort it kbmonkey you do your stuff ty15:58
kbmonkeywatch me multitask man ;)15:58
Kiloswhats a lvm group16:01
Kiloswhew16:01
Kilosbetter to format drive with gparted then start and install16:01
kbmonkeylogical volume management16:02
Kilosand they aint even got ext4 yet16:02
kbmonkeyit allows you to pool your drives together, so they become one large space16:03
kbmonkeyamong other things16:03
kbmonkeyit is how servers can add more disk space without needing reinstallation16:03
Cantideoh, cool :)16:05
Cantidethat is logical xD16:05
Vince-0surpdurp16:05

kbmonkeythere were lots of updates from upstream the past few months though19:52
nuvolarithe trouble with arch is that you'll have to update frequently19:53
nuvolarior rather, there ar e frequent updates19:53
kbmonkeyitit is a custom rolled distro right? not based on debian is it?19:54
kbmonkeyit is*19:54
nuvolariyeah19:54
nuvolariit's somewhere based between package managed and gentoo19:54
kbmonkeyas I understand it's updates are as frequents as if running debian sid19:55
kbmonkeyi.e. very regular XD19:55
nuvolariI had to install some stuff that required git (which is spart of the build system)19:55
nuvolariso it's quite source-oriented19:56
