Re: grub-installer: NVMe boot drives not supported ?

2016-02-03 Thread Lukasz Szybalski
Hello,
So the issue seemed to be a bios settings.
By default the system is set up for some sports of intel recovery raid.
Dell e7470 Samsung NVME 512GB. I presume this will be the case for all m.2
connected devices on dell latitude line.
Changing the SATA controls to AHCI or "disable sata" leaving only m.2
causes the disk to show up in legacy boot and it gets detected by installer
on debian stable.

As far as grub it does fail during installation.
You do need to follow part of the:
http://www.poweredbyjeff.com/2015/10/29/Intel-750-SSD-in-Debian-Jessie/





cd /target
mount --rbind /proc proc/
mount --rbind /sys sys/
mount --rbind /dev dev/
mount --rbind /run run/
chroot . /bin/bash

then

apt-get update
apt-get install grub-efi-amd64

update-grub
grub-install
#grub-install failed saying no target specified...so you need to point it
at the disk.

grub-install /dev/nvme0n1
#it should say install successful or something along these lines.

Then continue without boot...

Why the grub-install fails I'm not sure. I noticed only grub-common
was installed if that makes any differencebut anyway.

Thanks

Luca

We just purchased 4 Dell e7470 Laptops for work. 512GB Samsung NVMe drives.

We are trying to install Debian Stable but it doesn't detect the drive.
We are trying to install Debian testing but it doesn't detect the drive.

I see a ticket 786149 which is marked as fix. Can you give a confirmation

Debian Wheezy Compromised - www-data user is sending 1000 emails an hour

2013-12-11 Thread Lukasz Szybalski
Hello,
I run my own site, and I do have postfix, apache, wordpress, and moinmoin
installed. www-data is sending 100s of emails a minute. Either wordpress or
moinmoin is compromised? How do I debug to find out where is the problem?

I'm watching the mail.log and I see a lot of "emails" being sent from my
domain to other sites. hotmail.com, yahoo, mac.com,etc

Looking at the logs I initially thought my postfix main.cf was setup
incorrectly, but after verifying and testing everything I confirmed it was
just fine.  I then looked at syslog and I found that UID 33 was sending all
these emails. UID33 is www-data. This makes me believe either wordpress or
moinmoin was compromised, or somehow it allows emails to be sent to "
y...@yahoo.com" from "famen...@mydomain.com".

One way I could fix it is to block/reject any emails from www-data user, or
add senders restrictions to check "mail from" to see if its valid. While
this would be fine, the problem is still there. Either wordpress or
moinmoin on debian wheezy is compromised and can be used to send out 1000s
of spam emails.

What can I do to find out "which part of the code" is calling the sendmail,
or postfx pickup program?

Dec 11 20:51:22 myserver postfix/pickup[15547]: A9C91AE012: uid=33 from=<

You say "after reboot" and so you must have used grub to reboot,
right?

Asked to upgrade by asking you to run upgrade-from-grub-legacy
yourself manually from the command line?  Or by some other means?

I think the most normal installation is to select your first raw
drive.  That is, if you have /boot on /dev/sda1 and / on /dev/sda5 or
some such then you would install grub on /dev/sda without adding any
partition numbers.

**That is correct, I don't know why I thought I had a usb, but in this
computer I did not have a usb driver, so I should have selected
/dev/sda.  In rescue mode I did that many times and it still failed.


> After restart I can only see "GRUB>".

Grub appears to be installed then.  But the problem would seem to be
that grub's configuration file didn't point to the root filesystem.

** Correct, at that point I'm not sure if that was still grub 1 or
grub 2(grub-pc). (more on it below) The information below was very
useful after I gut the grub> menu.

At that point you can issue instructions to grub.  You should be able
to get some good information.  It is a little confusing to describe
but the most important thing to know is that TAB will expand and list
your possible options.  Use this to explore your system at that point
and to see what is where.  You can type in "help" to get a list of
commands available but that will produce a lot of output and will
overwhelm you.

At the grub prompt type in "root (" and then hit TAB to have it
complete.  It will look like this:

  grub> root (

Press TAB at that point and it will fill out to the available
options.

  grub> root (hd0,

Press TAB again to have it list them out.

  grub> root (hd0,
  Possible partitions are:
Partition hd0,sda1
Partition hd0,sda2

Then select one of them and repeat to list the contents of that
filesystem.

  grub> root (hd0,0)/
  Possible files are:
lost+found/ System.map-2.6.32-5-686 vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-686 grub/
config-2.6.32-5-686 initrd.img-2.6.32-5-686

That verifies that on my system hd0,0 (/dev/sda1) is my /boot
partition.  Repeat again with the other partition numbers.

  grub> root (hd0,1)/

LILO is not an option.

I think the better question is where was the original grub installed
(MBR?) and where is the new grub-pc (aka grub2 ) installed (mbr?)
Will update-grub configure the whole system, or do I need to create my
own config files? How do I install that to xyz sda mbr.

Thanks,
Lucas

lenny->squeeze upgrade - failed with grub-pc upgrade

2011-07-31 Thread Lukasz Szybalski
Hello,
In the process of upgrading from debian lenny amd64 to debian squeezy
amd64 I was able to successfully upgrade to kernel 32 and new udev.
Then after reboot I followed with apt-get dist-upgrade.

Everything went fine, but towards the end I was asked to upgrade to
grub-pc. During this choice I was asked to specify mbr to install new
boot loader. I've selected my "flash" drive that I have used before to
hold my "boot" partition I believe.

After restart I can only see "GRUB>".

While Recovering from grub-pc install failure. I've started from cd
(rescue) mode. I then assembled my raid partition (sdb1,sdc1,sdd1) and
executed into shell of my lvm root group mapper_xyz_root. From there I
run "upgrade-from-grub-legecy" and this time I've selected my usb and
sda to install grub.

Still no lock.

Then I tried "update-grub"

Now I get "grub loading...
no module name found"

What should I do now? I've logged in with rescue cd again and now my
/boot partition no longer holds other files except for "/boot/grub/.."
What happened to my kernel files 26 and 32 that were on the /boot?

What are my choices on installing grub-pc? Do I need "boot" partition?
What should be on it? Why did files got removed? Should I be
installing grub on my lvm root group? or sda? or /boot flashdrive?

I would appreciate some guidance on this.

Thank you,
Lucas

OpenLdap manual howto available

I'm working on openldap howto for Debian.

This manual shows how to setup openldap and gives a workaround to some
of the known bugs that prevent openldap to be reconfigured, and
migration tools from finish migration. The setting up of openldap is
fairly easy, but without few key instructions that I've listed its
almost impossible for new user to finish.

Took me 2 weeks but after reading above OpenLdap Manual howto you will
setup ldap server in as little as 10minutes.

migrationtools is making duplicate localhost accounts

2009-07-20 Thread Lukasz Szybalski
Hello,
While working with openldap and trying to migrate the accounts to ldap I
keep getting this duplicate localhost account created.

migrationtools is making duplicate localhost accounts.


adding new entry "cn=localhost,ou=Hosts,dc=mycompany,dc=com"
ldap_add: Already exists (68)


Is it normal that it creates localhost account for ipv4 and ipv6?
It seems as ipv6 items have ipv6-localhost like syntax, but localhost does
not.


My hosts file...
127.0.0.1 localhost


# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet


I know migration tool is reading system settings. But somewhere in the
system settings the migration tool is loading localhost twice. Would anybody
know where are the 2 accounts coming from?

Thanks,
Lucas

No subpixel rendering fonts in GTK+ apps

2008-02-06 Thread Lukasz Mazurkiewicz

Hi all!
I've patched (using patches from Ubuntu Hardy sources) and recompiled 
freetype2, libcairo2, libxft2 and fontconfig to get the subpixel 
rendering (ClearType-like) fonts.
Everything went ok, but the problem is that the subpixel rendering shows 
only on KDE/QT apps but not in GTK apps (ex. Iceweasel).
I'm using Debian Lenny/Sid with KDE 3.5.8 and i've got gtk-qt-engine 
package installed.

I did: /dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config/ and set Autohinter->Always->No
Next:/ dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig/ to reset the font cache.
Also: kcontrol > Appearences & Themes > GTK Styles and Fonts > GTK 
Fonts, 'Use my KDE fonts in GTK applications' is set.

Does anybody know what is wrong?
Thanks in advance.

I would say, its a collection of manuals. It seems as a lot of websites

I guess the proper name should be "manuals"

  Whilst I'm pleased that you've added the information it would
 be more appropriate if you added the separate pieces as separate
 pages.

  ie.  "postfix setup" isn't related to "dhcp -> static address
 transition".  That way too people could add more information.

  People can find the pages if they are linked into the structure
 in an appropriate fashion too, without you needing to announce it
 to any list.

It is based on http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy

Everything is easy to find. Easy index files, very easy to search.

There isn't enough info on it to do any restructuring. Not yet at
least. Maybe in a year or two.

[asp] installation on Debian

2006-07-21 Thread Lukasz Szybalski

[asp] installation on Debian
Hello,
I am trying to install ASP support on Debian, but i can't get it to work.
It seems that there are two paths, one is to go with mono and the
other is with libapache-asp-perl. Is that correct?


I tried installing:
apt-get install libapache-asp-perl

and also
apt-get install libapache2-mod-mono
apt-get install mono-apache-server2

I added index.asp in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

I still get a script displayed in the browser when i run default.asp


Could anybody tell me what am i missing?

The desktop task offered to you in the debian-installer
process installs both GNOME and KDE, but GNOME is chosen as
the default environment.

If you do not select the desktop task, but instead go for
manual package selection, you can install the kde package
independently.

Note that there might be other components pulled in by the
desktop task that are not depended on by the kde package
(e.g. xserver-xfree86).



I deselected the desktop. Installed the rest. Then apt-get install
kde. When all was done. startx gave an error.
Will manual selection of packages at install time produce same results
as apt-get install kde?

If so that will give me an error therefore it might or might not be a
use to me. Are there any other options?

[desktop][netinst]How can i choose a kde as a default?

2006-05-17 Thread Lukasz Szybalski
Hello,
1. Is there a way i can install kde as a default windowing system from a
netinst cd? 
I am using testing, and currently i would install default system(gnome)
then uninstall gnome and install kde. This means i have to install gnome
in order to install kde. 

2. I would like to skip this process and from installation menu when
selecting [desktop] I would like to choose a kde as a default windowing
system. Who should i contact to make this change happen?


Thank you

hmm.. both Gnome and KDE are... BIG
I mean they consume alot of resources
I don't know exactly why.. but on my Duron 800mhz with 512 Mb Ram
KDE was kinda bulky too...
so I installed and am still runnig Window Maker - it's a great and very
light for the CPU usage,
alike there are many such window managers, flux for instance...
just search the web, I'm sure you'll find more
and if well configured, they can be even easier to use than KDE

yes, that's another way to do it (didn't come to my mind)
this way you can run either the above command in the src dir or
CC=gcc-2.95 ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run 
(if you want to use the installer)
remember to start the installer as root and to check
if you have the gcc-2.95 file in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin

better is to select the compiler right before compiling by setting the CC var

export/setenv CC=gcc-2.95
(select one, export or setenv, depending on your distro)

or turn off the gcc version checking, that way you can compile it with 
a different compiler than the kernel was compiled with, done that once and
didn't have any problems

export/setenv IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=1
(select one, export or setenv, depending on your distro)

and then use either the installer or unpack the files and compile manualy
ie. 
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run --extract-only
cd NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2/usr/src/nv
make
make install (as root)

Re: possible to extract .cab files under linux?

2003-08-19 Thread Lukasz Szift Hejnak
I was seeking a way to extract cab files too and found two

1) you can get your self any bootable win disk
and use it's tools (boot it with cd access and then exec win98/extract.exe),
but then again if you don't have any 'fat' partitions, 
all you will be able to access is a floppy,
for some it's enough

2)You can download the winrar 3.20 for linux:

If you can boot from install CD, there should be a shell session
on some virtual console ( probably second ) with root's privileges.
You can mount your root device under /mnt or elsewhere and follow
the instructions given by Mark.
