Upgraded my shell server at home yesterday, and ran into a couple of
problems. None of them were specific to Devuan though, as far as I
can see - all the affected packages were inherited from Debian, and
most of the trouble was due to certain configuration details on my
system.
Anyway, maybe
It's getting to be time for me to upgrade my ascii server to beowulf.
But I have some worries, having heard people have had problems with
said upgrade.
What I absolutely need after the upgrade is a text console and network
cnnectivity. Because this is my link to the rest of the world, and if

Hi,
I'm running Devuan Beowulf on an Odroid C2 mini computer. Since it's
internal flash disk is limited, I run it with an external usb drive
attached.
When this disk is active in /etc/fstab the boot process hangs forever. I
can ping it, so networking is started, but I cannot login, because
Hi,
I upgraded three machines from Devuan ascii to Devuan beowulf. Now one
of these machines has non-deterministic problems during startup that
look like being related to eudev. As that machine was originally
derived by cloning the hard-disk of another machine that works fine, I
suspect this

Friends,
The Devuan project is changing its git repository manager from GitLab to
Gitea[1]. The main motivation for this change is to avoid the excessive server
resource consumption of the GitLab instance. It has also become increasingly
difficult to incorporate necessary security fixes without

Point taken. SNTP _is_ worthy of respect -- but I'd personally

Hi all!
I just upgraded from ascii to beowulf a pretty decent laptop, equipped
with a core i7 and 8GB of RAM.
I upgraded everything in place: so same desktop environment, same
applications, same hard disk... just "apt-get dist-upgrade" essentially.
I even kept gcc6 because I had it before and I

RFC 868 Time Protocol was obsoleted when NTP became ubiquotous in the
1980s. IMO, there's no point in keeping rdate(8) around when there are
multiple good NTP implementations
