Re: Fix for two NVME drives problem

The Adapter card you got is a pci-e X16 interface card usually used for adding a first nvme or a second nvme to allow for raid 0 and 1 and therefore automaps to match your existing nvme if you have one installed. As you already had a nvme installed and didn't want the raid function, you should have...

2.3.2

I'm not sure how it's happened, but with 2.3.2 I can no longer:> 1- install by dd to a clean memory stick; 2- reboot and allow sdb2 to grow to competely fill the drive; 3- reboot on another easy, then plug in the 2.3.2 memory stick as (so it's not mounted) sdb and using gparted, shrink sdb2 to allow...

More of a Project running package than just a notecse from the specs. This remind me of something we had back in the Netware 3 days, which even allowed multiple people to work on the one project at different levels simultaneously. The only problem for me is with python2 and gtk+ (2.x) being deprecia...

Repository of early source code

Anyone wanting early source code should be able to find it here http://gentoo.osuosl.org/distfiles/?C=M;O=A , it goes back to about 2002. The problem is it's in date of submission format, NO index and not necessarily exactly when created, just when submitted. However if you know the correct package ...

The powerbox will be ready for the next camping trip. When that will be I don't know. Here in Western Australia, we have lockdown, cannot even drive to different regions of WA. All campsites are closed. Same thing here in Victoria, all publically accessable sites (both council and privately owned) ...

Busybox use?

I've been proposed a question and since I don't know the answer I'm passing it on to the community, and BarryK of course as he will most likely know at least part of the answer. Question : Just how much of Busybox is used? What commands are most important and which are rarely (if never) used? I have...

@BarryK Most of your 'extra packages' you've removed all seem to relate to direct mobile connection for a laptop, in most cases needed for an ios phone, there's also geolocating and storing locally a phone number as android and ios do. Or did you by any chance at some stage consider a laptop with an...

For some twisted reason I find that humorous. The people of Japan seem to think otherwise. Very serious about their bike seats.

Isn't the 5.6 kernel a long-term support kernel like 5.4? At present it hasn't been announced on kernel.org that 5.6 will be long term support. It would be very unlikely that LTS releases were so close, so I would think it won't be LTS. Yeah, 5.6 is stilll a release-candidate anyway, so there is no...

Flash, what about asking BarryK, I know he got rid off most stuff he had, if he ever had some form of forum control, but you never know, he might also have another contact channel with JohnM (who was always hard to contact anyway).

sdb2 size?

Just a thought? With the larger sizes memory sticks have now, plus the cost drops for external ssd's so you can afford a larger size for your money, plus the sizes off hard drives growing, is it really necessary to resize the working-partition to the full size of the drive? Maybe pick a maximum to e...
