Well, I remember the menu was on the left and it was dark, and the rest of
the web was light. I'll have to wait for google to finish the web for colors

Well, they are intended for training purposes but I guess I also prefer the
script that prevents issues instead one that causes them ;D

Your hard disk was formatted but not your brain :-)

Didn't you remember any clue on what kind of media was that info coming 
from? Or if it was targeted to a concrete distribution?

I gave it another try and found this[1] and this[2]. Im not sure it is what
I was looking for. The web is nothing like I remember. Besides, they seems
pretty old and only for readhat.

Since nobody else is able to find anything like it I guess I dreamed about
it

Thanks anyway!

Neither it was a computer I was logged into gmail to search the history...

not good enough to find them, Ive tried several times...

I have not heard (nor read) anything regarding those scripts :-?

Do you remember where did you get that information? From what source (it 
was from a mailing list, rss news, online magazine, a blog...)?

Scripts to break the system (aka, troubleshooting)

2011-06-06 Thread alberto fuentes
I few months ago I saw some scripts with a list of 50 or so common problems
in a debian box. The scripts were suppose to randomly break something on the
system so you had to find the problem and fix it. The fix was saved into
some file so you could know what was failing afterward.

These scripts were meant to train you into linux troubleshooting.

I bookmarked the scripts buy I lost the bookmark and I haven't been able to
find it again.

Does anybody happen to know about these scripts?

greets!
