Upgrading a workstation from Jessie to Stretch I found that the original
disk partitioning left insufficient space for grub (re)install. The
system has two identical ~233 GiB disks, sda and sdb, partitioned
identically:
Disk /dev/sda: 232.9 GiB, 250059350016 bytes, 488397168 sectors
Units: sectors

The reason Redhat dropped btrfs support is because it currently has no
native cryptographic function. And from the various threads I've read on
the topic there is no easy answer to the problem.

I use tigervnc on Stretch to provide remote access to my machine from a
variety of devices. I'm running VNC over an OpenVPN VPN but I don't

Hi folks,
I am a little bit stuck.
I am regularly building a livefile system (kali-linux) and using apt-cacher-
ng, so that I do not need to download all the packages over and over again.
But the local repo is growing more and more, and as I want to get rid of all
old packages, I wanted to use

I had rongly assumed that you were trying to install buster packages
into stretch, so '-t buster' is clearly not needed.

Hello
Debian is moving away from Gnome2::VFS [1] . This obsolete module will be
removed from next release of Debian.
