Awesome summary. Especially the journal-restore script will come in
handy right now. The info came at exactly the right time.
This reminds me about the thread started by Michael Stone about
sharing info between deployments. I think we should really put this
kind of technical info up on the l.o wik
o a public repo. And of course
I'd like to see the relevant setup being made public be it yes or no,
but this issue is of secondary concern.
Thanks!

Hey dear list,
we need to base a release on the latest 8.2.1 changes here in Nepal,
however I can't find a public pilgrim repo that is actually configured
right.
I found the 8.2.1 pilgrim branch, who's only significant change is
that one yum repo is changed to an alledged 8.2.1 repo, and I hoped

Hi all,
We at OLE Nepal are pretty soon gonna have to finalize the build for
our deployment, and since 8.2.1 seems to have a number of nice fixes,
so we're gonna base it on that one. It doesn't seem however that we're
able to wait for the 8.2.1 final release. So in this light I have a
couple of que

it seems sugar-update-control.po isn't in glucose 8.2. It is in

the two of them have nothing to do with each other. Is it still
possible to put the .po file in 8

Yes, this is really nice.
Will make flashing thousands of xo's a lot easier if we can't get our
custom image preinstalled (not so covert plea slipped in here
somehow).
Worked fine over here in the tests done so far.

Hmm, I get the same errors from dev.laptop.org which has git version
1.5.
Hey,
I'm making a local pilgrim and I'd like to have the repo at
mock.laptop.org, which contains all rpms for the different xo builds.
Git doesn't work however because I get out of memory errors, so I want
to rsync it or find some other way or repository. Is it perhaps
