Hey David, did you ever get this figured out? Did you ever inspect the device parameters via sdparm or hdparm? I have *heard* of some Seagate devices disappearing when they go into suspend, but your problem doesn't sound like this issue since it happens in the middle of writing. Still, I thou

Hi everyone I wanted to post, for posterity, what I recently learned while playing with my new external USB3 disk drive. I needed to control the power settings for this drive. I noticed that it was never ever spinning down, so I wanted to be able to either power in up/down on command, or ha

Hi all I have a new Zotac ZBOX Nano CI320. It's a mini-PC based on an Intel Celeron N2930 (Bay Trail). This has been a very problematic system. I blame my troubles on the less-than-quality Zotac (AMI) BIOS. My current problem is that the system will not reboot or poweroff correctly. It ju

As previously noted, this was a bug in mdadm and has already been fixed in the current version. Just update your mdadm package and then re-build your initramfs file with the "update-initramfs" command. Be sure to read the manpage for that command. Probably "update-initramfs -u" alone will

Sounds like your Apache config may not be correct. You should post the relavant portion. You need to elaborate on "It opens the startup page but will do nothing else.". What is a startup page? Nobody but you knows what this means. On 10/15/13 11:50 AM, John W. Foster wrote: I have a we

Okay, this is helpful. Unfortunately, I don't know a lot about Debian's initramfs scripts, and I'm fairly ignorant of udev beyond it's basic functions and rule files. So, advice on basic troubleshooting of udev would be helpful to me. I am going to go play with this system here shortly, so
