I got a serious problem with a Debian install on an ESXi 5.0 Server.
Debian installs fine and seems to run fine, but the harddisk performance is
really low.
I got latency times of about 44 seconds, tested with bonnie++.
What I´ve done:
- New machine in ESXi, harddisk controller LSI Parallel
Hi :)
I'm writing a script to backup the 4 Linux installs and the MBRs on my
machine.
Is there a way to copy all 4 Linux by running one of those installs?
With a lack of knowledge I would backup the 3 Linux that aren't running,
by the running Linux and than boot another Linux install, to
# cd /mount_point_linux_root_directory
# tar czf /path_for_backups/backup_name.tar.gz *
Backup up your running machine using tar is fine but you should probably
exclude some directories.
Something like this would do (you may want to remove some of the excludes
like logs for example).
I'm taking a stab in the dark here (pun intended)...
do you happen to have a /run directory?
I had some issues with devices not being detected on boot recently which
turned out to be related to udev attempting to read from /run.

Please post the full output of 'apt-get dist-upgrade' here, otherwise we

I waited a few days and did an apt-get update and dist-upgrade and the
manually installed packages that were previously a problem were no longer
going to be removed. So the problem is solved but I do

while doing a dist-upgrade apt-get wants to remove a number of packages that
are manually installed.
One example is rxvt-unicode which I manually installed. I have run apt-get

I have configured policykit before.
I have /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/50-localauthority.conf
with the contents:

I have been holding policykit but as you mention you cannot due to
dependencies then I am not sure what to suggest sorry.
Sorry, that should say holding consolekit.
I would like to know why a certain package is going to be installed or at
least find out which package installed on my system is depending on it.
This came about as I was upgrading my Sid Laptop and noticed that it wanted
to install Hal during an apt-get dist-upgrade. I am using consolekit and
aptitude why $package-name
OR
aptitude why $search-term-for-root-pkgs $package-name
aptitude why $package-name == aptitude why '~i' $package-name

Thanks, is there an equivalent of this using apt. I can of course use

ifup must get called from a script, so you could probably just edit the
script and suppress the output from ifup.

I am sharpening up my boot screen on Debian Sid using an
lsb-base-logging.sh script which works well.
However when dhclient runs, which I believe is called by ifup and
ifdown it outputs dhclient details to stout and makes my pretty
screen not so pretty.
