no it won't. i've got two drives, a cd-rom and cd-r. i still rip to
hard disk and then burn image from hard drive. just have 700 MB of
spare space on some hard drive. direct cd-cd burns suck -- cd-rom has
*terrible* seek performance and cd-r requires a smooth flow of data.
if i had it to do over again, i'd skip the cd-rom and only get a cd-r.

Hmmm. If you want a mail "farm" a-la Freeserve, then something generic (eg

Yep. It bothers me, too, but there's no way around it. Frankly,
increased storage/RAM/whatever is a higher priority than data
security. Ideally, I'll blow the bucks on a RAID5 configuration,
which should help me out a lot.
But I'm looking at a big $1400 hit for the aforementioned RAID5
configuration, more if I want to do it right, so I dunno. That's a
few months off yet, at least.

Yeah. I learned that trick in OS/2. No matter how annoying the
endless confirmations are, they will eventually save you from a
disaster. I almost never do rm -rf, and when I do I always check
*thoroughly*.

Basically, none of it. I have dis[ck] copies of all the software on
there except my MP3s. Which I could probably recover in two or three
days via Napster.
Having to redo my system would be annoying, but I'm sure I could
recover enough to keep it from being a disaster. Actually, it's
really refreshing to be able to wipe out everything and start anew.
That's the one thing I'd like a tape backup for: thorough cleanups.

Have you tried the website of the drivemaker?
One thing to try is WIPE:
http://www.storage.ibm.com/techsup/hddtech/welcome.htm
It will write to every sector and overwrite any data that gives a read error
such as with format. That rids you of speudo bad blocks.
The only program that I know of that can remove bad blocks from
service is SpinRite. For that money you can buy a new drive though.

YMMV. This may be true of the cheaper Maxtor line, but you get what you
pay for sometimes. FWIW, 2 of the last 3 WDs I bought have died
very prematurely. Maxtor makes some IBM drives, to IBM specs with IBM
warranty, etc. I don't think IBM would do this without some inside
knowledge here. But again, these are not the bottom rung Maxtors.

Subject: NFS and mounting
Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2000 22:49:23 GMT
I have a CD-ROM drive that is part of my Linux box. I want to install
software on my SGI machine using the CD-ROM that is a part of the Linux
box. So I thought I could edit the /etc/exports file and the hosts.allow
file on the Linux box and then edit the fstab file on the SGI. Well, I
did
that and I got this error when I tried to mount:
# mount -a
mount: chum.seas.ucla.edu:/mnt/cdrom server not responding: Program not
registered
NFS version 3 mount failed, trying NFS version 2
And it never worked. So I thought I needed to start the daemons. So on
the
Linux box I typed:
# rpc.nfsd
# rpc.mountd
So now when I tried to mount I got this:
# mount -a
mount: chum.seas.ucla.edu:/mnt/cdrom on /cdrom: Unknown error
mount: giving up on:
/cdrom
Anyone know what might be wrong? I really need this to work since I must
install the software ASAP.
Thanks in advance,

Subject: problem with disk geomtry reporting
Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2000 22:54:46 GMT
This is an Abit BP6. I have two IBM 30GB disks as slaves on
IDE0 and IDE1. The BIOS does not give both the same geometry.
However, looking at the disks in Linux I see that the two disks
are recognised correctly, with the correct (identical) geometry,
but then the effective geometry is different. In other words,
Linux has access to the drive's reported geomtry but it prefers
to use the bios bad one.
Can I force Linux to use the one the disk reports?

It should be much easer to do this with a low-power CPU. Do these
servers need hardware f.p.? renegade.com has some small, low power

I'd be interested in the answer as well.
There is a SCSI howto and a SCSI Programming howto.
These both point to the use of the Generic SCSI device driver.
As I understand it (without writing a line of code, mind you)
Using the driver associated with the SCSI ID for the Library
(Always SCSI Id = 1? or is it ID = 0 with LUN = 1?)
You should then be able open the device (being the library) and
pass SCSI II medium changer commands to it.
The SCSI II medium changer command set appears to be widely implemented by
various
manufacturers of library hardware. So, I would have thought that someone
would have already done this? Details would be nice.

That is a possibility, although I would expect the spare to in the vicinity of
the original sector. Another is that there is a magnetic defect and the drives servo
action is violent.
Some of my IBMs even clicked quite loud when encountering such a sector.
There was no problem anymore AFTER those sectors were reassigned.
