mykalHi all. Ubuntu 24.04.1 installed on an old HP all in one. It has been slow for some time and after monitoring the CPU I can see an excessive amount of iowait. It has a 1 TB HDD (where ubuntu is installed) and also en MMC device of some sort. From memory the way this setup usually works is the MMC is like a cache for commonly loaded programs? at the07:12
mykalmoment it appears unformated and doesn't mount on start. I haven't mounted it so not sure of its exact size etc. Am i barking up the wrong tree here? Any good resources on what the optimal setup for this configuration is?07:12
ravagerip out the HDD and replace it with any SSD07:13
ravageCheap replacement and colossal performance improvement07:14
ravageIf the think has 4GB or less RAM it's e-waste though07:14
ravage*thing07:15
mykalYeah, it's 4GB. Should I be on a different flavour? or you think just done.07:16
mykalWhat I'm hearing is the iowait will be all swap? Doesn't seem that way, usually ram available, but close to 80% used.07:17
ravageYou won't have fun with 4G07:18
ravageStarting any modern browser will probably already block half of it without any webpage open07:18
ravageI think the lightest version of Ubuntu would be Xubuntu07:19
ravageThat can help to minimize the systems base memory footprint07:19
maryoWhile doing, kubectl apply I am getting an error.. Can someone suggest what I am missing? --> https://dpaste.com/4VHSX4MCV07:19
Bashing-ommaryo: I do not know anything about kube - but 127.0.0.1 is the local NIC. Can you ping it ? - ' ping -c1 127.0.0.1 ' . Might point in the right direction.07:31
maryoBashing-om, I am able to ping07:37
Bashing-ommaryo: Again - I know nothing - but as you can ping - to me indicates something in kube is not set correctly.07:40

claudioI'm trying to upgrade from 23.04 to 24.10 but this update path seems unsupported. Are there ways to upgrade cleanly without reinstall the system? I'm googling but no luck yet. Thanks in advance for your help and time.09:04
ravageYou need to go through every single release and also enable archived versions of the package archive. A fresh install and choosing an LTS release is much faster probably09:11

ubottuEnd-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades09:11
claudioravage: you mean by editing sources.list and apt update ; apt upgrade ; ...?09:12
claudiodo-release-upgrade don't works: An upgrade from 'lunar' to 'noble' is not supported with this tool.09:12
mgedminread the linked wiki page09:30
mgedminit boils down to editing sources.list to point to old-releases and then running do-release-upgrade09:31
claudiomgedmin: yes, I know the procedure but I was looking for a cleaner way. Guess there isn't though. Thanks.09:43
mgedminthe only other way is reinstall + restore data from backups; and in a sense it is _cleaner_ that way09:45
claudioUpgradeTool for lunar is not available (error 404). Any idea if I can get it from somewhere else?09:57

Apachezwhats the command to rescan a usb drive after you created a filesystem om it without physically unplug/replug it?18:50
Apachezalways forgets what that command is18:50
Apachezpartprobe /dev/sdX18:52
pragmaticenigmaApachez: how are you creating these filesystems? if you use the desktop tools, it usually will take care of that for you18:53
oerheksusbutils > usbreset18:53
* mgedmin remembers using kpartx and sfdisk -R -- which apparently has been replaced with blockdev --rereadpt, according to the man page19:01
Apachezpragmaticenigma: using cfdisk, mkfs.ext4 etc from cli19:15
Apachezbut partprobe was the one I always forgets what its named :)19:15
pragmaticenigmaare you not using a desktop?19:15
pragmaticenigma*environment19:15
JanCI think you should be able to use 'udevadm' to trigger the USB device or the disk block device too19:21
pragmaticenigmathat doesn't always work19:21
JanCbut I guess blockdev --rereadpt is more explicit19:22
