Mounting USB Iomega ZIP250
Hi! I have been working with the USB drive on Redhat 7.1 (2.4.2-2) for a year and I am happy with it until this morning. I disconnected it and used it on a laptop (W98). In the meantime the Linux box was rebooted. When I plugged the USB Iomega into linux again, and tried mounting it with : # mount -t -vfat /dev/sdc4 /mnt/zip250 it gave me a not valid block device error message. I then looked at fstab and found that after the reboot without the USB drive, the entry was gone !?! I replaced the line , but got the same error message. Can anyone help , shed light ?

why can't I shutdown Linux ?
Hi all. My Oracle/RH7.1 server has recently developed two unusual quirks. (1) It cannot shutdown and hangs at Umounting file systems with following error message shutdown : warning : cannot open /var/run/shutdown.pid This is a new one for me. There is no shutdown.pid in this directory ?!? (2) It seems that I have to log on twice at the spalsh screen to log on (I installed gnome, I shouldn't have on a server) . I think sometime back, somebody had a similar problem. (3) And just now, on reboot, it cannot reach the other machines ?!?

Re: why can't I shutdown Linux ?
I put in a known functional network card, same RTL chip. Now everything works. I need only log in once rather than twice. But shut-down still hangs at Umounting file system, I wonder whether this has anything to do with disabling the hda on the ASUS motherboard because I use SCSI ? Nothing that happened this morning makes much sense to me. First, the dead nic did not complain. The last time a nic died on me, it flooded dmesg. Second, what has a nic got to do with logging in twice (or once) on Gnome ? Although the problem is resolved, I remain dissatisfied because I do not see the connections between the symptoms and the dead nic and the only reason I changed the nic is because I cannot reach it. errare humanum est - and I am very human ! domini absolvi - just not me ! -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

It's exactly like pulling all the plugs out the back of one computer and plugging them into another without switching off the PCs. Some admittedly do have cross-wiring inside to hold the 5 volt rails, but the small surges that are generated can't be good. People have been trying to convince me for a while that this is an OK thing to do but I strongly disagree. The amount of PCs that come over the floor here with PS/2 ports broken is too many. In all cases the customer unplugs or plugs in connectors with the PC running, or uses a manual switch box. Seriously - if you want to do this and have your PCs live to tell the tail - spend the bucks and get a proper KVM. (the ones with the circuitry inside them).

Okay, to find out what files are using these, go into your directory,
and use the fuser command.
So, for me...
cd /tmp/orbit-ockman
fuser *
give me quite a few...here are the first two:
orb-13076214721085093349: 1533
orb-13240275601413802650: 1484
then using ps ax I see that process 1533 is gnome-terminal and 1484 is
panel. So that explains what processes are creating the files!

Thompson's PDP-7 assembler outdid even DEC's in simplicity; it evaluated expressions and emitted the corresponding bits. There were no libraries, no loader or link editor: the entire source of a program was presented to the assembler, and the output filewith a fixed namethat emerged was directly executable. (This name, a.out, explains a bit of Unix etymology; it is the output of the assembler. Even after the system gained a linker and a means of specifying another name explicitly, it was retained as the default executable result of a compilation.)

Do I really need 21.8gb for /usr? You can make /opt a symlink to /usr/local/opt. That will solve the immediate problem, and prevent something similar from happening later. mkdir /usr/local/opt ln -s /usr/local/opt /opt As you get familiar with Linux, you will get your own ideas about how your partitions should be laid out. I would have wiped that machine and setup my own partitions, but then I've been doing this for years. Here are some things you might consider for your next Linux box: - Put /usr/local on it's own partition. Software that you compile locally (install from tarballs) often puts everything it needs under /usr/local. I also tend to put the scripts and such that I create to help run the machine in /usr/local/[bin|sbin]. With all of this on a separate partition, I can install the latest version of my distro, tell the installer to leave /home and /usr/local alone, and most of my customizations remain in place. I just have to worry about the config stuff in /etc. - Put Apache's DocumentRoot in /home/httpd. This stuff will not change if Apache is upgraded, and needs to be preserved between OS upgrades. Red Hat used to do this, but apparently it's not LSB compliant. Fine, but I like to simplify my sysadmin tasks, so I put DocumentRoot on a partition that I kow will be preserved between upgrades and/or reinstalls. - Make /opt a symlink to /usr/local/opt. - Adjust partition sizes for /home and /usr to reflect use as either a file server (big /home) or a database or email server (big /var). I tend to restrict /usr to 4GB because I don't generally install that much software on a server. I allow more space for data files (/home, /var). In any case, welcome to Linux. Tony - -- Anthony E.
