Thanks emmanuel and Celejar for your input.
actually i have been going through DRBD configurations and practicing,

just thinking why not i just mount DRBD drive on the root folder and 
tell apt-get install to copy all the files to specified path rather 
then default so i could avoid copying files from their installation 
directory to mount points then remount the mount point to their 
installation directory.



is it fine. though i am just practicing things are not in production. 
my production DRBD is working fine.



Thanks,


Hi Muhammad Yousuf Khan,

You can try downloading the apache and mysql's tar.gz file and try 
installing in any location you like. You can specify that in the 
'configure' script itself. './configure --help' will give more details 
on that.

Hi David,

 Till last month, I have installed close to 10 installations of
GNU/Linux OS as dual boot with Windows OS(XP and Windows 7). This
particular Lenova Laptop which had Windows 8 installed in UEFI mode
had issues in installing Ubuntu. When I try to insert the Ubuntu
(12.04 LTS) in USB boot stick, it is not even recognizing the OS.
The machine detects Ubuntu only when I turned off UEFI to Legacy
mode.
In the same time, I purchased my own laptop (Dell vostro 2420) which
was pre-installed with Ubuntu. When I checked that, it was turned to
Legacy boot by default. Also as per the technical journals I read,
GNU/Linux don't have their own UEFI authorizing keys. Can you please
correct me with some more details, If I am wrong.

I am at a disadvantage because I relinquished the laptop about
a month ago to be returned to Lenovo for warranty repair and
the memory is somewhat dim.  The BIOS was configured for Legacy
boot.  I enabled USB booting in the BIOS as needed and kept it
normally unenabled.  I installed Linux Mint XFCE into a hard
drive partition.  I discovered the main power button will always
boot up Win8 in UEFI mode but the smaller power buttona, designed
for the Lenovo One-Key recovery facility, brings up a boot menu
that includes the hard drive partitions and USB drives if such are
configured as bootable.  I hope this is helpful.

Hi David,

What you have said is correct. I also followed the same method you 
followed. The problem here is, we need to change the bios setting every 
time to toggle between Windows 8 and Ubuntu. Ubuntu starts in Legacy and 
Windows 8 starts in UEFI boot mode. I was thinking whether there is any 
procedure to dual boot Ubuntu with Windows 8 in the same UEFI boot mode 
itself but unfortunately I haven't figured it out. Thank you for your 
details :-)

Recently one of my friend's brother bought a Lenova laptop. My friend asked
me to install Ubuntu in that laptop but that machine was not detecting
Ubuntu and directly booting into Windows 8. Then after bit of struggle, we
went into the bios and changed the boot mode from 'UEFI' mode to 'Legacy'
mode. Since we were installing by pen drive, we changed the boot order also.

After the above steps, it detected Ubuntu and we finally installed Ubuntu
along with Windows (as dual boot). The problem starts now. We were not able
to boot windows from the Ubuntu grub menu boot entry. If we want to boot
Windows 8, we need to change back the boot entry to UEFI mode in the bios
and then only Windows boots from Windows boot manager.

The reason behind this is Windows 8 is been made to boot only in UEFI mode
and hence the OEM vendors (like Lenova) are configuring their machines
accordingly. They don't mind/care about other free software OS.

Just before this instance, I bought a laptop prebuild with Ubuntu (DELL
vostro 2420). It doesn't had these circus as it was shipped with Ubuntu.

I thought of sharing this details with you and our fellow community. The
link 'http://www.fsf.org/search?SearchableText=secure+boot' shared by Bob

Please don't top post.

And please don't conflate the fact that you couldn't install Ubuntu on
a Lenovo with UEFI with the fact that it cannot be done.

I've just installed Ubuntu on a Lenovo and it's the seventh such
install on UEFI laptops.

Re: problem installing win 7 on debian machine

[Balamurugan]

Hi Johan,

I am not very sure whether you can install windows after any GNU/Linux 
installation.


I would recommend you to install Windows first by leaving some disk 
space for Debian and then install Debian in the remaining disk space 
left by Windows.

Re: Apache2 neds to ne reset

[Balamurugan]

Dear John,

Please download apache as a tar.gz and try installing in a local path 
rather installing as a system(/usr/bin or /usr/local/bin). In this way, 
you can configure to the most minute level. If you find any issues, you 
can simply remove that path. That is it.


Steps:

1. tar -xzvf apache_tar_file
2. cd apache untar dir
3. ./configure with the required arguments (usually prefix, give it 
with your local path. Check './configure --help' for more details)

4. make
5. make install (This needs to be run with the user which has the 
permission to install apache in the configured prefix directory)


After successfully completing the above steps, you can go to the 
apache/bin and execute 'httpd -k start' command. That is it.

Balamurugan R

Once before I had a similar issue, and to get rid of Apache to reinstall

however I also had to rebuild most of my entire Debian installation as
Apache is very integrated into the requirements for many applications.
Any suggestions please.

Reg: gcc option for printing large number (large double)

Hi,

I have an issue in printing a large number in a c program. Please find

#include math.h

int main()
{
double temp = 0.0;

temp = pow(2, 2000);

printf(The value of temp is %lf\n, temp);

return 0;

I compiled and ran as below:

The value of temp is _inf_

But for the same expression, I am able to get the value from python,

I installed Debian 7.0 (64-bit) - Wheezy (stable release) in one of my 
system. Installation went smooth without any issues.


After installing, I was about to install g++. Before installing g++, I 
tried installing libstdc++ and I got the below error. Can anyone help?

Re: Re: oh no something is definitly wrong adieu debian.

Dear Conrad,

Regarding the Debian's advantage and disadvantage, any one can point but 
comparing two persons, their ideology is not that simple.


Richard stall man stood for a nobel cause. If he hasn't taken such a 
project called GNU, we may have used only freeBSD and its kernel and may 
not be Linux. This is because Linux is just a kernel. Kernel may be 
compared to brain of a OS but it is definitely useless without the other 
parts of the system.


GNU can use BSD/hurd/Linux kernel and is working with all the three. 
Currently Debian is supplying all the three. I agree, Linux gained more 
fame but that doesn't mean, you can very well go and disrespect others.


Richard just stresses the point, we will not be in a position to know 
what is being done by the proprietary software in your system. If you 
are willing to go with it, no body stops you.


I would say better than skills, we should value other's ideology and 
their noble contributions. I am in no way arguing that Linus have done 
less. All good for the IT world.


Cheers,
Balamurugan R

arch traitor ;) since I prefer Arch Linux and my explanations might be
a traitor's kiss, since I referred to the KISS principle.


I am still a big Arch fan myself. But after a couple years I found 
myself drawn to Debian Testing as the Arch developers (ESPECIALLY 
Allan McRae, the current maintainer for Pacman.) have begun to take a 
fiercely arrogant attitude and a we know better than you, so shut up 
tone toward anyone who would question some of their decisions.


The last couple major changes in Arch seemed like changes for changes 
sake as well (systemd, while I really do love it a lot, just doesn't 
seem to fit with how I understood Arch was supposed to work. And I 
still believe to this day that the old BSD-like sysv setup they had 
before was loads simpler to configure.) And I still don't understand 
the point of the lib/bin merges they are doing, aside from the fact 
it's a blatant violation of FHS.


I used Gentoo for a bit, but its problem is the opposite of Arch: 
Whereas Arch is making pointless, unnecessary changes, Gentoo seems to 
be pretty stagnant and stuck in its ways. Gentoo actually is a 
distribution I actually think would benefit very well with systemd. 
OpenRC, though its goals are laudable, I've only ever seen it 
basically just become a sysv-init clone that accomplishes next to 
nothing new. My other gripe about Gentoo was it just got to be just 
too much work just for basic system upkeep. The USE flags were 
incredibly useful and powerful for customizing my packages and how my 
system would globally work, but all too often setting them globally 
would just result in Portage griping and refusing to install software, 
and setting USE flags individually per hundreds of packages is way too 
much work, effectively meaning Portage ended up getting in the way of 
what was supposed to be its own most powerful feature.


I think Debian works pretty well. It's not as flexible or powerful as 
Arch or Gentoo, perhaps, but it's definitely better for servers than 
Arch or Gentoo. But it's not without its flaws. I think Debian's 
obsession with free software conformity is, indeed, a weakness. Before 
you blast me, I'm just going to point out I subscribe more to the 
Torvalds school of thought on open source, NOT the Stallman school. 
Richard Stallman over-politicizes/idealizes the idea of open source, 
tries to make it almost a moral/spiritual thing in a context and 
industry where moral/spiritual choice is as a whole, irrelevant and 
actually pretty counterproductive. For a long time (Until recently, in 
fact.), Debian desktop users had to use third party repositories just 
to get decent multimedia support into Debian. Why? Because Debian 
developers questioned whether over half of the codecs most people 
needed were free enough.


I think my opinion is made worse by the fact I just plain do not like 
Richard Stallman both as a person or as a representative of the FOSS 
world. And despite all of Debian's good faith efforts to try to 
conform with Richard's idea of what free means he still basically 
regards Debian (And pretty much all Linux.) with contempt. This is 
probably less to do with whether or not Debian complies with his 
free ideas and more for the fact the guy is pedal-to-the-metal 
bitter and oh-so-very jealous that Linux succeeded in every place GNU 
failed (Such as actually being an operating system.), which is why he 
insists on the GNU/Linux moniker, which is utter nonsense (Using the 
GNU toolchain doesn't magically make Linux GNU, and he uses some of 
the most insane logic to try and justify a pretty transparent attempt 
to take credit for Linux's success from those who actually DID make 
Linux a success. It is a crying shame the Debian people, in their 
futile

Reg: Installing debian in tablet

[Balamurugan]

Hi,

Can Debian be installed in a tablet? If so, can any one point me how to 
proceed on the same. Any document links on the same is also sufficient.


I am a newbie in installing GNU/Linux OS to tablets. Kindly help me.

Re: Re: Reg: Mysql used instead of MariaDB

[Balamurugan]

Hi,

You are correct. I also moved to MariaDB after knowing the reason behind the 
MariaDB formation.


I was just trying to find why Debian hasn't included MariaDB which was quite 
ready in 2012-2013. Thank you for your answers.

Since now MySQL is a part of Oracle, I believe we need to move towards

Hi
I agree with you. I don't like to wait... I don't understand myself why
Mariadb is not available in Debian. Opensuse, Fedora, Wikipedia 
migrated

from Mysql to Mariadb, 100% free software. I downloaded and installed
official .deb from Mariadb site.  It works with Wheezy and Jessie, 
on my
two PC. I use it with Digikam and Amarok. Mariadb works like Mysql, 
same

commands. Installation keeps  mysql-common and libmysqlclient18.


If you're really keen on using it Right Now instead of waiting to see if
they're going to include it as part of the Debian distribution at some
point, the nice folks at MariaDB do have a package repository for Debian
systems that you can add to your system and then you can use apt-get or
whatever to install it.  Their website provides instructions on how to
do this.

Hi
About *I downloaded and installed official .deb from Mariadb site*, I 
have not been clear enough, sorry : I added official Mariadb .deb 
repository to download packages:

deb http://mirrors.linsrv.net/mariadb/repo/5.5/debian wheezy main
It works for Jessie too.
Greetings
