At last I've found time to switch from K12LTSP to Edubuntu for my home/office network, and I've run into a problem with my old backup regime.
Basically, the server has two hard drives in removable trays: /dev/hda & /dev/hdc. With K12LTSP installed, it ran a nightly rsync script to copy changes from /dev/hda1 to /dev/hdc1. Then, in the event that /dev/hda becomes unreadable (which did happen!) I was able to simply replace /dev/hda with /dev/hdc, and the system boots. OK, so I lost a day's work, so I implemented another script to rsync the /home directory every 30 minutes or so. Now, with Edubuntu, switching the hard drives is problematic. Evidently, /dev/hdc is identified as such, and it's not happy being inserted in place of /dev/hda. There must be a simple solution! Or is it time to install both discs as a RAID device ?
