**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Mar 31 10:59:57 2006 Mar 31 11:25:47 Snider, if this messages appears when you try to boot a 2.6 kernel, then you shouldn't be afraid about that (read http://www.thomashertweck.de/kernel26.html#bootprob sorry, in german only) Mar 31 12:38:36 Well, it didn't boot after night Mar 31 12:47:56 There was no .recovery file, and the logs end at the EXT3 FS on sda1, internal journal Mar 31 12:49:34 hmm Mar 31 12:49:41 strange Mar 31 12:53:11 what's the hdd size limit on unslung 5.5b? Mar 31 12:58:54 drif: Not sure there is one imposed by 5.5-beta; it seems to be dependent upon the enclosure. 250GB drives work fine. Mar 31 13:10:31 as seem 300BG as well Mar 31 13:10:37 GB :P Mar 31 14:17:10 test Mar 31 14:33:41 test was successful Mar 31 14:34:21 thanks :) Mar 31 14:34:36 It was so quiet I thought there was something wrong with my connection! Apr 01 02:47:29 I have no idea why after power loss it won't boot up. Its almost like its finding the HD but not mounting it / running start up scripts Apr 01 03:09:22 Snider: openslug? Apr 01 03:09:31 You may need to check on the root of the hard drive. Apr 01 03:10:04 If it fails fsck or there is *any* hitch in mounting the disk, the openslug root won't recover automatically. Apr 01 03:10:20 Look for .recovery in the root of the HD. Apr 01 03:10:45 Delete it if it's there and also make sure that the HD is clean with an fsck -a. Apr 01 03:10:51 or fsck -f. Apr 01 05:04:07 beewoolie-afk, debianslug Apr 01 05:04:43 .recovery isn't there & I have mounted the drive on this box & filesystem seems to work okay. I was going to try fsck but didn't get round to it yet. Apr 01 05:04:47 Yeah, but what is in flash. Most people put openslug in flash Apr 01 05:05:04 Do you have a console? Apr 01 05:05:44 negative. Apr 01 05:05:55 I put the debian-sda1.bin in flash Apr 01 05:06:14 Oh. That's another matter altogether. Apr 01 05:06:19 Yea Apr 01 05:06:29 You may want to ask on the deb-install list. Apr 01 05:06:38 I can reboot / shutdown -h now but if it loses power, it will not boot back up Apr 01 05:06:56 gotta go. Apr 01 05:06:56 ttfn Apr 01 05:08:27 thanks for the help... am fsckin' it now, it checked out clean without -f Apr 01 05:08:37 ouch, the -f found corruption Apr 01 05:09:30 Must be it. Apr 01 05:14:54 Nope still doesn't want to boot **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Apr 01 10:59:57 2006
