Dec 17 15:48:41 <Texture> hi. i'm trying to find a low level and safe way to backup the root filesystem on my Debian/NSLU2. i've tried find | cpio and dd so far, with no success.
Dec 17 15:50:06 <Texture> last thing i did was to try to backup the root fs with "dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/dev/sda3 bs=1000000" and then restore with "dd if=/slugdata/backup.bin of=/dev/sdb1 bs=1000000
Dec 17 15:50:10 <Texture> "
Dec 17 15:50:27 <Texture> duh. and restore with:
Dec 17 15:50:56 <Texture> dd if=/dev/sda3 of=/dev/sda1 bs=1000000"
Dec 17 15:51:17 <Texture> with sda3 slightly bigger than sda1
Dec 17 15:52:13 <Texture> the slug does boot up, but /var/log/messages suggests the slug fails to bring up eth0
Dec 17 17:54:38 <Texture> after restoring from a backup (using dd), my slug seems to boot correctly, except that eth0 does not come up. it seems to be detected (ixp4xx_mac driver 0.2.1: eth0 on NPE-B with PHY[1] initialized) but it won't come up and i can't access the slug. i'm clueless. if anyone has an idea...
Dec 17 17:56:42 <Texture> btw, this is on a Debian/NSLU2
Dec 17 23:39:15 <danychouinard> How can I make some cleanup in my /initrd?  
Dec 18 02:08:20 <danychouinard> is my user_smb.conf supposed to exist?  I currently have none :(
Dec 18 02:17:07 <danychouinard> Ok.  I figured (I hope).  The user_smb.conf should be created by the web page.  So I tried to create a share via the web but I have to specify a disk, but none are shown.  I beleive it's because I modified the drives configuration to raid1
Dec 18 02:17:27 <danychouinard> Should I create the share manually now?
