file deletion from usb drive??

2013-12-23 Thread bruce
Hi,

Created external 500G usb hard drive,
Added ~300G of dirs/files to it

I can see the files from the mounted drive, via the Computer icon of
the desktop.

Here's the tricky issue!

I drill down in the drive/dir icon to get the target dir, which has
1000s of files in it. I select a few using the mouse, select the move
to trash menu item, and after it says it's moving files to the trash,
I do a refresh/reload, and the files are still there!!

So, just how do I delete files from the external drive!

Thanks

 So, this appears to match whatever you have written above. Now what
 should I do?

Well, it depends. What would you like to do?

You could become superuser root, then run exactly the kernel-install
command found above, and check the exit return code and watch out for
any warning/error it might print. Next step would be to debug the
/bin/kernel-install script in an attempt at finding out where it fails.
Perhaps it fails within the /sbin/new-kernel-pkg script, perhaps in
grubby (that'll be C code then, however), perhaps due to SELinux, or
perhaps because it doesn't recognise a valid template in your grub.cfg.


You could also spend some time in bugzilla and search for whether
somebody else is affected.

 Hello, Everyone
 I just ran yum update and rebooted.  Some time not long after that

 I rebooted into an older kernel and have not had any more of these

 Eventually, my system became unresponsive and I had to reboot.

To clarify, does it happen with old or new kernel?

 
 I am running Fedora 20 (fully updated)
 Installation method: fedup
 
 Any ideas?
 

It looks like httpd is hanging somewhere doing something and kernel
detects this. It might also be that your system is busy on doing I/O
operations etc. and httpd process is blocked waiting for CPU time.

 Trying to upgrade F19-F20 using fedup --iso with luks-encrypted

 The upgrade stops after Mounted /boot, and does not proceed, no further

 I did run into bug 1043981, and applied the patch to fix fedup barfing.

 … nd, this looks like a bone-fida bug with fedup 0.8.

If it's just stuck on /home you can edit /etc/fstab to comment out the /home  
entry, since it's not needed for the upgrade. Then restore fstab after  
reboot, and reboot again (or mount it manually). Also this case of failure  
doesn't yet have a work around, and is actually a bug in the F19 installer  
which was fixed in F20. If it applies to your case, it's best to just  
reinstall from scratch because the layout is wrong.


https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1044551


In my case I was able to succesfully upgrade by systemctl cancel-ing the  
stuck password prompt job from an alternate console. This started the  
upgrade, which completed without issues.


My bug might be the same one here, at least insofar as the LUKS password  
prompting itself goes. However after kicking the upgrade, I ended up with a  
working system, unlike this bug. The difference might be that in my case I  
had regular, individual disk partitions; LVM was never in the picture.

It's been possible to run nfsv4-only nfs for a long time, with only

Re: F20 in VirtualBox VM

 The OP is not a newbie.  He has stated that he has run VBox since forever

 The last significant post from the OP would indicate he has it running under 
 virt-manager and is not concentrating on trying to find a method to convert 
 VBox VM's to run under virt-manager.

Just to clarify: I am not a newbie, I have been a Unix sysadmin for
almost 30 years, and been a Linux sysadmin for almost 15 years. I also
run Xen virtualization systems at work that implement critical services
such as DNS and authentication, so I am not new to the concept of
virtualization either. I use VirtualBox at home just to run a couple of
Windows VMs. All that said, it still often happens that someone else
will think of something that I have not, or have a piece of knowledge
that I lack, so even very experienced people may occasionally ask for
help on a mailing list. I am not afraid to do that and I have often
received very helpful advice.

I started this thread because I was trying to install an F20 VM under
VirtualBox on an F19 system.  I do know how to use VB to connect the DVD
ISO to the VM and install an OS. The problem is that when I do this with
the F20 ISO, syslinux boots and the first Anaconda selection screen
comes up. I select Install Fedora, and I get nothing but a black
screen after that. I still have not solved this problem.

As a workaround, I attempted to install F20 on a VM under KVM. The
install works, but the VM runs dog slow (so slow that it's useless). 

So as of now, I still do not have a usable F20 VM. But I have moved on
to other projects, since this wasn't something that was critically
important. And this thread has now degenerated into something that is no
longer related to the actual topic.

John,

I can create new dirs on it, I assume I can create files as well. I'm
assuming it should be read/write/delete...

I've been looking to see exactly how centos/fedora assigns privs/perms
when doing auto mount for external/usb hard drives.

In the nutilus gui for the computer/drive, there is a item for
properties that has permissions.. I did set all of the sections that I
saw to read/write/delete in the event this was a perm issue.

On 12/21/2013 11:04 PM, Kostas Sfakiotakis issued this missive:

Hi, back in the early days of CDR media, we used to consider some drives
even incompatible with certain colors. It was a long time ago so if I
recall the dark blue ones were the best choose and the silver the worst.
Where did your elephant memory recalled that ?? It should have remained
in a small drawer in the smallest corner of your brain. Am not sure
though brands (  HP, TDK,...) have to do with it, I used to use many of
them , just the color.


Ah, Kostas! Yes, I dusted the cobwebs from the deepest part of my memory
to find that bit about the color of the CD-Rs, but color can still play
a part in DVD compatibility. DVD drives are just as sensitive to the
laser color and reflectivity of the disk. In addition, there are DVD
drives that are compatible with DVD-R(W) media but NOT DVD+R(W) media
and vice versa.

As far as branding is concerned, there are a limited number of makers of
the media and that product is generally purchased and rebranded by the
major players. However, I find that going with one of the big labels
gives one a better chance at getting reliable media. I've had very good
luck compatibility-wise with TDK's DVD-R media and both of HP's DVD-R
and DVD+R. Keep in mind we have some pretty funky old systems laying
about here and it can be a challenge to get media to read on some of
them.

  I have never had a mismatch of DVD drives before, so this was
  unexpected, at least by me.
 
  Cheap blank discs?  (Not always very compatible with drives.)
  Burnt the disc at maximum speed?  (Not always the best option.)

Also check the color of the disk media. Sometimes the color of the
media screws up the wavelength of the reflected laser so it doesn't
register correctly. We've had problems with that using cheap DVD-Rs
(we stick with TDK or HP now). It was a huge problem back in the early
days of CD-R media.

 VirtualBox on an F19 system.  I do know how to use VB to connect the DVD
 ISO to the VM and install an OS. The problem is that when I do this with
 the F20 ISO, syslinux boots and the first Anaconda selection screen
 comes up. I select Install Fedora, and I get nothing but a black
 screen after that. I still have not solved this problem.
 
 As a workaround, I attempted to install F20 on a VM under KVM. The
 install works, but the VM runs dog slow (so slow that it's useless). 
 
 So as of now, I still do not have a usable F20 VM. But I have moved on
 to other projects, since this wasn't something that was critically
 important. And this thread has now degenerated into something that is no
 longer related to the actual topic.

I stand corrected. My bad. Sorry.

I have never had this problem but I see several users post about it. As
I recall it the suggestions were 'to install in text mode' or to 'set
the resolution' in the boot.

I do *not* know if these work, I never needed to try it.

Good luck.

You've only queried the kernel package for its scriptlets section.
You haven't tried to execute the command you can see in there.

If you have an OS with grub on the system already, you can perform a
medialess installation[1] facilitated by either VNC or kickstart.

a long, long time ago, i reported an apparent glitch with NFS on

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/users/2010-January/097465.html

in that, at the time, it *appeared* that you couldn't set up
NFS so that *only* version 4 was running. before i start messing
with this again, anyone know whether that's changed? that is,
is it possible to set up a network in which only NFSv4 is running,
and no earlier versions are supported? thanks.


It's been possible to run nfsv4-only nfs for a long time, with only
port 2049 being let through the firewall. It only appears that you
can't because because rpc.mountd has to run on the server but it's
only involved in the exporting and not the mounting.


  a followup question, then -- i'm reading the RHEL docs (but i imagine
the contents are applicable here as long as we're talking about NFSv4);
the section on NFS reads:

The mounting and locking protocols have been incorporated into the  
NFSv4 protocol. The server also listens on the well-known TCP port  
2049. As such, NFSv4 does not need to interact with rpcbind [3],  
lockd, and rpc.statd daemons.


does that mean that if i configure my system(s) to run NFSv4 only,
those daemons no longer need to be run? better yet, if i configure
for NFSv4 *only*, will those daemons even be started? i guess i could
peruse /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs to find out.

 We did forget the most important part. The reverse direction rsync
 F19-F20 does work.

Not sure still why we had not run into this issue before but we finally
believe we tracked the issue to a slight difference between the primary
and secondary DNS named.conf file. The command netstat -anp grep 873
found that most of the systems were getting tcp6 for rsync and only a
few were getting tcp. We are not running tcp6 as our internet provider
is not supportting it in our area and we do not see the need anyway for
such a small network. We seem to have found and fixed this issue.

 grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template

Great! As expected. 

Save a backup of the current grub.cfg file. It may make sense to publish
it somewhere for others to take a look. Next would be to figure out
why grubby (from package grubby) fails as above.

The C source file grubby.c says:

  /* Find a good template to use for the new kernel. An entry is
   * good if the kernel and mkinitrd exist (even if the entry
   * is going to be removed). Try and use the default entry, but
   * if that doesn't work just take the first. If we can't find one,
   * bail. */

Verify that there is an initramfs image for your installed kernels.
If not, recreate the image file. Which kernel packages are installed?
Did any of the previous kernel packages add a working entry to grub.cfg?
Do all of the entries in grub.cfg work for you except for the latest?

What happens if you return to the previous kernel by uninstalling the
latest kernel package, then run grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg,
then yum update kernel? Does it fail again?

 maybe with some luck it will get corrected. In the mean time Cinnamon

This bit looks ripe for investigation.  Do you have these .desktop files,
and do they contain correct references to present and functional binaries?

Have you tried with a new user? If that works, move around your .files to
isolate the culprit.

Maybe I should start packaging it...

In /etc/sysconfig/nfs

RPCNFSDARGS=

man 8 rpc.nfsd

  -N  or  --no-nfs-version vers
  This option can be used to request that rpc.nfsd does  not  offer
  certain versions of NFS. The current version of rpc.nfsd can sup‐

Would seem to be what you are searching.

i'll test further later.

 i'll test further later. 

I don't know, or think, that the above indicates V3 exists.

Next would be to figure out
 why grubby (from package grubby) fails as above.
 
 The C source file grubby.c says:
 
   /* Find a good template to use for the new kernel. An entry is
* good if the kernel and mkinitrd exist (even if the entry
* is going to be removed). Try and use the default entry, but
* if that doesn't work just take the first. If we can't find one,
* bail. */
 
 Verify that there is an initramfs image for your installed kernels.

Sorry not sure what this means or how to go about this.

 If not, recreate the image file. Which kernel packages are installed?

 rpm -qa kernel\*
kernel-3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64
kernel-3.12.5-302.fc20.x86_64
kernel-headers-3.12.5-302.fc20.x86_64


 Did any of the previous kernel packages add a working entry to grub.cfg?

This is the first update under F20 so no way for me to know this (this
was a fresh install).

FWIW.  On my F19 system

[egreshko@meimei ~]$ rpm -qa | fgrep VirtualBox
VirtualBox-4.3-4.3.6_91406_fedora18-1.x86_64
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ uname -a

x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

On the F20 VM .

[egreshko@f20f ~]$ uname -a
Linux f20f.greshko.com 3.12.5-302.fc20.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 17 20:42:32 UTC

So, with the same rpm from Oracle that you have, I have no problem.

I guess you're 100% certain your host system is running a 64bit F19? :-) :-)   
Or, maybe, there is a bug in VBox running on your F19 system that fails to 
detect your hardware/OS is 64 bit?

/etc/sysconfig/grub is a link to /etc/default/grub. You should use 
resume=uuid=swapuuid and insert the blkid uuid for swap instead as /dev/sdX 
can change between boots and is not reliable. It's strange that your root= in 
grub.cfg is not using UUID as well.

 grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template

This is a generic message indicating that it doesn't understand the existing 
grub.cfg. Can you look in /boot/grub2 and see if there is only grub.cfg or if 
there is also a grub.cfg.new? 

If you have a grub.cfg.new with a more recent date/time than grub.cfg then this 
means grub2-mkconfig is failing. To get more information you can use:

bash -x grub2-mkconfig

And post those results somewhere like fpaste.

 However if I try to mount with -t nfs on a client I get a nfs4 type
mount ( same as with -t nfs4 ) . On the other hand if I ask for
a -t nfs -o nfsvers=3 mount it just hangs forever. Only tcp port
2049 is open in iptables although nmap -sU tells me that various
NFS related things are listening locally. 

 On the server itself an attempt to mount version 3 results in a :
mount.nfs: Interrupted system call
so I guess the extra ( local ) udp stuff doesn't actually do anything .

/etc/default/grub reads currently:

GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT=console
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16
$([ -x /usr/sbin/rhcrashkernel-param ]  /usr/sbin/rhcrashkernel-param
|| :) nomodeset rhgb quiet GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true

Should I put this before the nomodeset?

 
  grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template
 
 This is a generic message indicating that it doesn't understand the existing 
 grub.cfg. Can you look in /boot/grub2 and see if there is only grub.cfg or if 
 there is also a grub.cfg.new? 

No, there is not. Here is what i have in /boot/grub2:

~$ ll /boot/grub2/
total 25K
drwxrwxr-x. 2 root root 1.0K Dec 18 19:05 fonts/

-rw---. 1 root root 3.6K Dec 23 13:01 grub.cfg
-rw-rw-r--. 1 root root 1.0K Dec 19 01:17 grubenv

(Not sure why I have a i386-pc..but this is an x86_64 machine.)

 If you have a grub.cfg.new with a more recent date/time than grub.cfg then 
 this means grub2-mkconfig is failing. To get more information you can use:
 
 bash -x grub2-mkconfig
 And post those results somewhere like fpaste.

$ fpaste 
bash -x grub2-mkconfig

Or after it, or at the end before the last . It doesn't matter.

GRUB is 32-bit on BIOS, and 64-bit on UEFI.

That didn't work. I'm not sure how to output it to a file, as 'bash -x 
grub2-mkconfig  bashgrub.txt' doesn't output the debug output from bash -x, it 
just creates a file from grub2-mkconfig. So unless you know how to do that, I'd 
just run the command in gnome-terminal, copy-paste it into a text file. Then 
fpaste the text file.

 maybe, there is a bug in VBox running on your F19 system that fails to
 detect your hardware/OS is 64 bit?
 

That's certainly what it looks like. I may also try an older version of
VB, or update my kernel to the most recent version.

I guess I'd be interested in the output of

cat /proc/cpuinfo

And maybe

lshw -C processor | grep width

for completeness.  :-)

Who knows how VBox goes about making its decisions.

BTW, everything worked fine for me on earlier F19 kernels.

Re: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 22s! [httpd:1889]

 Yes:
 kernel-3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64
 
 Right now I am FINALLY going to remember to reboot into the offending
 kernel and see if this happens again.

If you can reproduce this with a vanilla 3.12.5/.6, you could suggest
reporting it on either the Linux kernel mailing list or
bugzilla.kernel.org.

If it turns out to be easily reproducible, you maybe could consider a
git bisect, too...
