Hi,
I have to power down one of my machines each day.
Booting it the other day fails from time to time.
On this (and all my machines) /usr is on an ext4 file system by its
own. It looks as if mounting /usr fails sometimes (silently).
The first unusual message is that it cannot find the file

Hi,
is it possible to emerge packages to a $ROOT directory mounted via NFS ?
The setup is
- machine A is equipped with a Quad core CPU
- machine B is equipped with an N330 Atom-CPU
- machine A is doing the system update on a local chroot-environment
for machine B and generates binary packages.

Dale,
Rather then rebooting, did you shut down the whole machine, eg. power off and
unplug power and then start it again?
I have, in the past, had issues where a card wasn't being "reset" properly
during a reboot and only a cold start would lead to correct behaviour.

Yes, I have a N330 (zotec ION) with 3G ram, no local storage and swap
over nbd with portage and build area in /tmp which itself is on tmpfs.
Some packages (gcc and glibc in particular) require a lot of ram and
tmpfs to emerge so sometimes I have to disable tmpfs and use nfs
storage.

With nothing mounted on it, the mount point's permission are those of the
directory. As soon as you mount something on it,

The same size of tmpfs on /tmp also works even if you have only 4GB RAM,

E-SATA != SATA
Nah. They are *exactly* the same.
Evidently someone realized that the original SATA connector is way too
fragile to be regularly used to plug/unplug a cable by hand, so they
engineered in some features which make it a bit more resilient. But
apart from the shape of the co

The SATA spec allows for hot plugging, so technically yes ...
My recollection of my understanding (multiple disclaimers) was that SATA
*allowed* for SATA hot-plugging but didn't *mandate* it.
a good summary of the hardware/driver situation wrt hotplugging can be
found here:

Hi,
a friend of mine asked me to prepare a small server for him.
Unfortunatelly he can not afford to buy brand-name server so
he asked me to build one for him, from "consumer" components
(yes, I already warned him about "zero-support" consequences).
It should be some kind of "multi-purpose" serve

The following lines creates an auditWorldFile.log log file which will
show packages requires by other packages, so theones you can safely
remove.

Not according to Wikipedia -- it says the electrical specs for eSATA
are different than the specs for "normal" SATA. I've seen that stated
in other places as well. I don't have copies of the two spec
