[10:58] <momomo> hi folks ..
[10:59] <momomo> i ran sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:59] <momomo> then I am asked to configure fucking grub
[10:59] <momomo> I selected keep local one ( because it has been modified probably by server company, i don't know )
[10:59] <momomo> but then I am asked what disc I should install grup on
[11:00] <momomo> if I choose wrong, then server might no start .. this is why I don't ever fucking upgrade!
[11:00] <momomo> fucking stinks!
[11:00] <momomo> thanks ubunut!
[11:00] <momomo> it's better to just leave fucking shit as is,

[11:08] <patdk-lap> that is a failure of your server company
[11:08] <patdk-lap> as once that setting is selected, it is saved
[11:08] <patdk-lap> it's only asking you, cause it wasn't ever set
[11:09] <patdk-lap> normally the answer is sda
[11:10] <jelly> right, the whole disk.  better yet, first two whole disks in case of soft raid usage
[11:11] <momomo> so not the boot partion ?
[11:11] <momomo> i am not suing raid
[11:11] <jelly> no, use just sda
[11:11] <patdk-lap> jelly, if they where, I would have expected to see boot also on sdb
[11:12] <jelly> the boot loader goes into the master boot sector, that means the whole disk
[11:12] <momomo> but seriously, should I ever have to be faced with shit like this? I just wanted the fucking security updates ... ubuntu doesn't even offer a simple fucking way to do that.
[11:12] <jelly> patdk-lap: and probably some partitions on sdb, but I didn't take a good look
[11:12] <jelly> momomo: because you're pretending to be a sysadmin.
[11:13] <jelly> if you don't want to deal with shit like that, hire someone to do it for you
[11:13] <momomo> another choice I don't want to have toe take: http://s16.postimg.org/a2v5u5oys/Screenshot_from_2015_07_25_13_12_30.jpg
[11:13] <momomo> seriously, ubuntu is retarded
[11:13] <jelly> this isn't ubuntu's fault really
[11:14] <momomo> look there isn't even a good answer to this questioN: http://askubuntu.com/questions/194/how-can-i-install-just-security-updates-from-the-command-line
[11:14] <momomo> not one
[11:14] <momomo> seriously, should one have to face shit like that?
[11:15] <momomo> if you upgrade, you computer might not work
[11:15] <momomo> lets gamble, yes or no .. 50 50
[11:15] <jelly> do you want to fix the issue and move on, or do you want some cheese with that whine?
[11:15] <momomo> i don't have any other choice now than to hit yes, right
[11:16] <jelly> let grub install on sda, and just sda
[11:16] <momomo> i did
[11:16] <momomo> rebooting
[11:19] <momomo> apt-get -s dist-upgrade | grep "^Inst" | grep -i securi | awk -F " " {'print $2'} | xargs apt-get install ... little hacky
[11:19] <momomo> one would imagine that ubuntu-server would come with such a command by default
[11:37] <roracle> hey guys, trying to get a cms set up on my site via a subdomain, but I no matter what CMS i try out, they all tell me it has some write errors for the directory
[15:52] <norbin> hi
[15:53] <norbin> right, issue resolved
[15:53] <norbin> dns server didn't respond correctly, changed resolv.conf to defaults and now it's ok
[15:53] <norbin> i've initially changed the ip of the name server in resolv.conf to the actual nameserver ^_^
[15:54] <norbin> back to the loopback ip + localdomain
[15:54] <norbin> works
[18:46] <TheEagerPadawan> if i would like to study for lpic-1, what would be good source to start
[18:47] <teward> their training
[18:48] <teward> you can buy a testing bundle from them, both exam vouchers + study materials through LInux academy
[18:48] <teward> interactive videos, test environments, etc.
[18:48] <teward> or, try and find in-person training, but that gets pricey
[18:48] <teward> TheEagerPadawan: note that's the method I took to get my LPIC-1 recently
[18:49] <TheEagerPadawan> thanks for the heads up
[18:50] <TheEagerPadawan> doing comptia network + right now
[18:50] <TheEagerPadawan> if you want more info pm me, since it's not linux related
[18:52] <teward> TheEagerPadawan: don't think anyone cares much about it really
[18:53] <teward> but meh
[18:53] <TheEagerPadawan> about being offtopic or about networking
[18:54] <teward> in this case, neither, since it's not related to any topic currently in discussion here.
[18:55] <TheEagerPadawan> hah well i've been studying for comptia networking with cbtnuggets
[18:55] <TheEagerPadawan> but i can't seems to find anything else then examcompass with examquestions
[18:56] <teward> pretty certain 'certification' studying is offtopic here.
[18:56] <teward> but i also think CompTIA has study materials they publish
[19:20] <lordievader> Do employers actually care about certification?
[19:20] <bekks> Yes, they do.
[19:21] <lordievader> Ok, good to know.
[19:24] <patdk-lap> really depends
[19:24] <patdk-lap> the larger the bussiness, normally the more they care
[20:24] <clueless> doesn anyone know a good tutorial for a postfix conf that is used to send mail from a local network it doesnt need to receive
