 After I changed the owner and group of the file to portage and set the

What i don't understand is 3.0.12 being owned by my user and having installed

I get a few of these upon completion of installation:
scanelf: rpath_security_checks(): Security problem with relative DT_RPATH '.'

I don't have any reason to suspect they have anything to do with anything,
I've just never seen those before.

  Howdy,
 
  I ordered the new mobo as much as I needed to wait.  The mobo is the
  same brand but a different chipset and a couple other things are
  different.  I have already built a kernel for those changes.  I plan to
  put everything on the old mobo on the new mobo.  That includes the CPU.
  I'm pretty sure this will not be needed but want to ask to be sure.  Do
  I need to do a emerge -e world or should it just work like it is?
  Since the CPU is going to be the exact same CPU, I'm thinking it is not
  needed.  I do have march=native set in make.conf.
 
  Thoughts?  Thanks.
 

 Personally, I think all you need to do is to ensure that the kernel
 has all the drivers it needs to speak to the new mobo. Other members
 of the @world set relies on the drivers in the kernel.

 But I don't use any GUI or audio; if you're using a GUI and/or audio,
 you might also have to re-emerge the relevant bits.

It uses the same audio chip so that should be OK but that is something

[gentoo-user] RAID help

2013-10-15 Thread Mick
Hi All,

I haven't had to set up a software RAID for years and now.  I want to set up 
two RAID 1 arrays on a new file server to serve SBM to MSWindows clients.  The 
first RAID1 having two disks, where a multipartition OS installation will take 
place.  The second RAID1 having two disks for a single data partition.

From what I recall I used mdadm with --auto=mdp, to create a RAID1 from 2 
disks, before I used fdisk to partition the new /dev/md0 as necessary.  All 
this is lost in the fog of time.  Now I read that these days udev names the 
devices/partitions, so I am not sure what the implication of this is and how 
to proceed.

What is current practice?  Create multiple /dev/mdXs for the OS partitions I 
would want and then stick a fs on each one, or create one /dev/md0 which 
thereafter is formatted with multiple partitions?  Grateful for any pointers 
to resolve my confusion.

No, that will grep nsplugin only, that string is unlikely to appear in
the line of ps output of it's parent.

Rather pipe ps -ef into less and search for nsplugin. Less efficient but
a) you should care about that and b) you will get everything and none of

3.8.x defaults to $VOL=$MINIMUM

or maybe the audio feed to snd-hda-intel was busted for years and some

Run blkid on your present mobo, and you will see where your filesystem(s)
are located in regards to /dev/sd{a,b,c,d}.

When you plug your SATA drive(s) to your new mobo, look for labels on the mobo
to indicate SATA{1,2,3,4,5,6} or whatever. Generally they are going to use sda
on 1, sdb on 2, etc. What can throw that off is the ATAPI drive (DVD/CD). I'd
put it on the highest SATA#, at least for that first boot.

Also look at your /var/log/dmesg output. NB: less /var/log/dmesg is NOT the
same as dmesg. Do the former and it will show you only that part from boot
to Linux login (or whatever).

As previously stated, be sure to have all the drivers you need built into your
new kernel. You may or may not be able to ascertain that w/out the board in
your possession. You can look it up by make/model on
http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ but they are using an old kernel, therefore,
caveat emptor. One way you can check that is to boot with SystemRescueCd
first, select their kernel version closest to the one you'll be using, and run
lspci -k from it. If you don't have something you need in your kernel, go
ahead and chroot into the new system.

I've moved stuff around like this...sold the wife's computer sans hard drive a
few weeks ago, and it booted fine. So long as you have the new board's / fs
and it's controller built into the new kernel, you'll get into the system.
From there you can make nconfig on the running kernel and change/add
whatever you missed.

Don't forget that grub (if you use it for bootloader, not just fishing), has
an editable line when you boot up. So if /dev/sda1 is not valid, edit it and
try booting with /dev/sd{b,c,d}1 or whatever until you get it. Then once
you're into the system, you can change it.

Trivial, Homie! Call if you need help...you have my number. :-)
