**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Jan 15 02:59:57 2010 Jan 15 05:54:58 i'm so glad these system crashes are not unique to me Jan 15 05:55:03 http://groups.google.com/group/openrd/t/d435787eb4e4ffd0 Jan 15 05:59:03 dma driver bugginess Jan 15 06:55:19 got my sheevaplug wohoo :) Jan 15 07:00:10 cemc: better late than never ;) Jan 15 07:06:23 :) Jan 15 13:49:18 does anybody uses wd passport harddrives? Jan 15 16:15:32 hello everyone Jan 15 16:37:49 can anyone confirm or deny whether this bug exists on sheevaplugs too? http://groups.google.com/group/openrd/t/d435787eb4e4ffd0 Jan 15 16:37:59 "git pull" triggers some kind of DMA bug Jan 15 16:38:19 i get similar experience with some samba use cases Jan 15 16:39:46 hey, is there a quick guide on how to boot from an external usb? Jan 15 16:45:51 rektide: what samba use cases? Jan 15 16:47:27 err, from an usb hdd Jan 15 16:53:45 kblin: writing to a share on the system Jan 15 16:56:19 hm, I've just started using cifs to mount shares to a couple of my PCs at home, and so far haven't seen any issues Jan 15 17:53:59 anybody had any issues with the plug from the heat? mine's not hot, but it's warm Jan 15 18:19:47 mine gets warm too Jan 15 18:19:53 I have a globalscale plug Jan 15 18:32:32 me too, just got it Jan 15 18:36:20 in the default ubuntu install I don't seem to have tun/tap device, any quick way to get it ? Jan 15 18:53:22 cemc: not sure Jan 15 18:53:28 I didn't get that far yet Jan 15 19:03:31 cemc: you probably just want to run the installer Jan 15 19:03:48 if the globalscale plug is the same as when I got mine a few months ago, the kernel in the box doesn't have *any* useful modules Jan 15 19:04:33 i see Jan 15 19:04:49 is there any trick to the SD cards? mine doesn't seem to work in it Jan 15 19:04:59 it just spews out errors Jan 15 19:07:21 it's a 4GB transcend Jan 15 19:07:42 erm, what happens when you plug it in Jan 15 19:07:59 does an entry appear in /dev/ [eg mmcblk0p1 and mmcblk0] Jan 15 19:08:08 and how are you trying to mount it? Jan 15 19:09:32 Chunky_Ks: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/357195/ Jan 15 19:09:35 this happens Jan 15 19:09:49 (note: the removed message is when I remove it :) ) Jan 15 19:11:13 oh Jan 15 19:11:24 "host does not support reading read-only switch. assuming write-enable." Jan 15 19:11:32 Start by flicking the switch on the side of the SD card Jan 15 19:11:47 it's in the right position Jan 15 19:11:47 O Jan 15 19:11:56 I'm guessing that's just a warning Jan 15 19:12:04 Are you sure the card is good? Jan 15 19:12:29 yep, just got it out of the pda, and saved all the stuff from it on the laptop Jan 15 19:12:32 built-in readerr Jan 15 19:12:38 the formatted it to ext3 Jan 15 19:13:30 ok Jan 15 19:13:42 I'd check that you formatted a partition and not the entire block device Jan 15 19:13:53 It may be trying to read the partition table and finding garbage? Jan 15 19:14:26 ie, sudo mkdir /media/cookies && sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/mmcblk0 /media/cookies Jan 15 19:14:39 or sudo cfdisk /dev/mmcblk0 Jan 15 19:15:03 whe I insert it in ubuntu on the laptop Jan 15 19:15:11 /dev/mmcblk0p1 3.7G 72M 3.5G 3% /media/New Volume Jan 15 19:15:15 seems fine to me Jan 15 19:15:20 ah, ok Jan 15 19:15:37 Sorry, I don't really know what's wrong, I'm just throwing guesses out there Jan 15 19:16:02 I know :) was waiting for something i didn't try :) Jan 15 19:16:48 if you haven't committed data you care about to the card, I'd suggest trying to fdisk it on the sheeva Jan 15 19:16:50 and reformat on there Jan 15 19:16:58 see if that makes a difference Jan 15 19:31:30 I just ran a mv_dial all, and found this: Jan 15 19:31:39 http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/357207/ Jan 15 19:31:45 bad blocks? already? :) Jan 15 19:33:56 yeah, that's normal I think Jan 15 19:45:48 and what about this? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/357213/ :( this doesn't look good. I didn't try to install any other uboot or distro or anything Jan 15 20:50:06 nvr mind **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Jan 15 22:50:31 2010 **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Jan 15 23:09:17 2010 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Jan 16 02:59:56 2010
