[01:15] mnathani: GRUB on linux has no problems booting off an mdraid disk these days. No need for a separate /boot etc [01:16] mnathani: Conversely, at the same time GRUB has not problem booting from LVM logical volumes on top of the physical disk layer, so you can make LVs for / and /home etc if you want to [01:20] plett: I got the install completed, ubuntu software raid, but then grub installs the boot loader in mbr instead of the gpt [01:23] mnathani: I don't think grub's stage1 knows about gpt, or expects the computer to be able to parse enough of gpt to be able to find it [01:30] http://www.anchor.com.au/blog/2012/10/the-difference-between-booting-mbr-and-gpt-with-grub/ [01:30] I am reading that ^, but its really confusing [02:45] finally got it to work: [02:45] Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on [02:45] /dev/md0 182157312 86337 182070975 1% / [02:45] Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on [02:45] /dev/md0 5782959688 2237688 5489254788 1% / [02:45] /dev/md0 5.4T 2.2G 5.2T 1% / [04:26] *** josephb has joined #arpnetworks [07:34] m0unds: fights seem to be balanced to me [07:37] *** rVn has joined #arpnetworks [07:38] ah, cool. i had an NC char on mattherson, and it was TR-heavy to the point of not being any fun [08:54] *** mayhem has joined #arpnetworks [08:54] *** rVn has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [09:27] *** rVn has joined #arpnetworks [09:27] *** mayhem has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [09:34] mnathani: Is the disk partitioned using MBR or GPT? And if you're not booting EFI (doesn't sound like you are) then yes, the bootcode (grub) gets installed in the MBR because that's where the BIOS expects it.

I was going to do a 256g SSD, and a 500g SATA in place of the optical drive. guess I'll forgo the HDD for now, and just do the SSD.

[16:27] * RandalSchwartz just wrapped up at OSCON [16:31] have they reduced the number of deps needed to run git? [16:35] I didn't realize there was any. :) [16:37] ahh - looks like perl, python, asciidoc if you want the manpages [16:37] openssl for gitweb [16:37] yea, it's ~180MB of deps on netbsd [16:37] vs mercurial which is just python iirc [16:37] well - that's because git does more. :) [16:38] sure, but i hate it anyway [16:38] have you looked at git in the last two years? [16:38] be good at one thing, rather than try being good at tons of things [16:38] yep [16:39] i was forced to use it for a while [16:39] git's definitely better than it was many years ago. [16:39] i have it installed and reluctantly use it for a couple of projects [16:39] i'm not a fan [16:40] only reason those projects have me using git is that they use github instead of bitbucket [16:54] *** mayhem has joined #arpnetworks [16:54] *** rVn has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [18:04] It's Friday here, has been for almost 12 hours! [18:04] haha [18:04] thursday is like my tuesday [18:04] i work wed-sat [18:05] You have a 3 day weekend?! Lucky bastard! [18:05] yeah, haha [18:05] 4x10hrs ftw [18:06] That's actually not a bad way to do it :) [18:06] i agree [18:06] my division is pretty small, so it helps us keep better coverage [18:07] I'm doing a PhD so i've kind of forgotten what normal work hours are like, i tend to do 5-6x10-12h :( haha [18:07] hahaha [18:08] my wife just finished up her masters, and that was her typical week too [18:08] working full time + school [18:09] Stuff that! lol, luckily here in Aus the goverment gives a reasonable scholarship to discourage people from working while doing PhD's [18:10] haha [18:22] I sorta work every day [18:45] RandalSchwartz: Not full days i hope [18:45] sometimes :) [18:45] but my work is mostly fun [18:52] :) [18:56] *** mayhem has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [18:56] *** mayhem has joined #arpnetworks [20:56] *** rVn has joined #arpnetworks [20:56] *** mayhem has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [21:11] *** rVn has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [21:14] *** mayhem has joined #arpnetworks [21:54] *** mayhem has quit IRC () [22:33] *** sga0_ has joined #arpnetworks [22:36] *** sga0 has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) [22:40] Length: 307957760 (294M) [application/x-iso9660-image] [22:40] Saving to: `nixos-minimal-14.04.376.f6ad69a-x86_64-linux.iso' [22:40] boooooo [22:40] a minimal iso should not be almost 300M! [22:41] up_the_irons - mirage 2.0 [22:41] minimal images (in the hundreds of megabytes) that are the entire serving stack, talking to a xen interface. [22:42] and also no attack surgace [22:42] surface [22:42] ... http://openmirage.org [22:43] they can fire up one of these microkernels to serve a page in a short enough time that it can respond to an incoming HTTP request. [22:44] interesting [22:44] so if AWS had a microsecond payment model... it'd be great. :) [22:44] since these things can basically sit on "bare metal" xen [22:44] haha [22:45] openmirage.org is executing mirage code. it's self hosting. [22:45] what's nice is for debugging, you can insert shims that use classic TCP [22:45] but then swap that out for tuntap devices [22:46] so you can get closer to the xen IF [22:46] it's pretty cool. I interviewed them for floss 302 [22:46] and now I'm learning OCaml. :)
