[gentoo-user] udev & baselayout
HAPPY NEW YEAR! HI, the udev-scripts reports while booting that it is made for baselayout 2 and not for baselayout 1, which I am using. I tried to figure out, what version of udev I have to use for baselayout 1 with no success. Where can I find the appropiate version information (or what should I do to circumvent the problem?)

Of course it does. But in these cases, the workaround is assigning a non-127 address to the lo interface, like 192.168.0.1/32 for example, and DNAT to that address (and have whatever program should receive the data listen on 192.168.0.1, of course).

The same version, but you don't need the init script with BL1. Remove it from all runlevels with rc-update. Baselayout-1 starts a number of services automatically, including udev, while BL2 relies on init scripts to start them. -- Neil Bothwick Facts are stubborn, but statistics are more pliable signature.asc Description: PGP signature
[gentoo-user] Externel drive should be /dev/sda1, but /dev/sda1 does not exist
Hello My wife's computer is pretty slow, so I've attached and old hard drive into a hard drive enclosure and hooked it into her USB port for additional swap space. It used to work. The swap space is supposed to be /dev/sda1. The problem is that for some reason when I rebooted this morning with a new kernel, /dev/sda does not exist anymore. I'm at a lost as to what to do now.

This way eats some private network address range and this could be cause of a collisions with an external private networks. Reconfiguring services for a new ip ranges isn't so easy procedure in general (let's consider device that should work just out of the box with a trivial configutation efforts). Thus it's important use some subsets of 127.0.0.0/8 network for that. I have just been advised to look at net-misc/stone or net-proxy/haproxy (thanks to has been adviced), but I'm not sure that this will work like DNAT.

So the only thing you changed was the new kernel? Might help to know why you built the new kernel. What problem were you solving by doing it? I would try booting the machine without the USB swap disk and then hotplug it when the machine is already running. What does dmesg say then? Can be simpler to interpret when you know exactly which lines were printed in response to the newly connected drive.

Not having root access usually means no chance to mount something. That in turn means that you can only encrypt on a per file basis. The best tool for this would be GNU Privacy Guard (GPG). HTH...

It wasn't hard. It has one decided quirk which I consider a feature -- root can read the encrypted volume for backup but *cannot* access the plaintext volume. Another quirk is that filenames are padded to multiples of some configurable length before encryption; these are visible to root. I suppose root could even manipulate them, but I have never tried it. I mount and umount it without root, but I think it required initial root access to load a kernel module. Now that happens automatically. This may be a problem if you have no root access at all.
