wget-list in svn-20111005
Hi. I'm trying to download sources in svn-20111005 ; seven are failing ; for instance linux-3.0.4.tar.bz2... The exact URL given in wget-list is http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-3.0.4.tar.bz2 When going on http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/ I could see there was no directory v3.x. What am I to do ? Thanks for help. -- Ph.

I've noticed recently, that if I create partitions in parted and then reboot my vBox VM for some reason or another, I am unable to see those partitions again to resume my tasks. This occurs in the HLFS LiveCD r2145. I really *don't* want to have to wipe my partitions and start over again. I know nothing of vBox, nor indeed of any other vm, but since nobody else reading the list has any suggestions, let's try and tease out some more information. Is vBox the same as VirtualBox ? I've assumed you made partitions on a real disk. If the disk in your vm is virtual, then disregard these questions and the suggestion. You are running the HLFS LiveCD in vBox ? Did the partitions appear when you created them ? If so, did you do anything to them (e.g. mkfs, mount, ...) ? What is the host system on which vBox is running ? Does _it_ know that the new partitions are there ? If your machine isn't natively running linux, I will lose all interest ;-) I can recall some fun and games in the past when I repartitioned a system disk - the kernel got the new partition table, but in a vm I assume that both the kernel in the vm, and the host kernel, would need to get this information. How such changes are communicated to vBox is probably best asked on a vBox list. I wonder if something in your vBox installation process configures it to use the disk as it was at the time it was first run, and then for subsequent runs just reuses that information. If this is a regular DOS partition table, you might be able to use mknod to create device nodes if your vm lets you do that. So, for /dev/sdX sda starts at 8,0 and sda1 is 8,1 then add 16 for each new disk, so 8,16 and 8,17 for sdb and sdb1, etc. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Funnily enough, on lkml today there is a proposal to taint kernels running virtualbox (similar to kernels with staging modules loaded) because it *causes* kernel problems. So, perhaps this is a virtualbox problem. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Sometimes we have to use parted. I am not familiar with it too...
