Hi, for 0.5Beta4 I will use Kernel 2.4.16pre1. Don't try to generate a DL ISO with the original 2.4.15, because due to the filesystem bug, the initrd image is not created. I currently upload 2.4.16pre1 to the ftp server, should be finished in a couple of minutes. cu Heiko |

User has to setup a config file and everything happend automatic 2. DL boots up and User has to start a program, which asks him some questions. I think the values should only be used, when we find a greater harddisk. When the User defines the sizes, the default is our suggestion. cu Heiko |

Hi! I'm currently reworking the build system so the .config file for the build process won't end in /build/tmp because there it propably get's delete. Moving it to /build/.config. Another plus ist that the person configuring can see the end result in the same directory after calling "make menuconfig". -- MfG / Regards Friedrich Lobenstock |

I suggest the following values
- 2 GB for /var/squid/cache
- 2 GB for /var/logs (incl. squid logs, because /var/squid/logs links
to /var/log/squid/)
- 1 GB for /var/spool/mqueue (or whatever postfix uses)
==> min. 5GB Harddisk needed

During setup of the harddisk or afterwards?

Correct.

I think we go with your suggestions. We should define standard partition sizes, e.g. we suggest for Squid 1.5 GB, Mail Spool 1 GB. But the user can change this value. By this way, we leave space open for future enhancements. I think it makes no sense, to fill the harddisk up, e.g. it makes absolutely no sense to have Squid using 10 GB. -- cu Heiko I am root, resistance is futile! http://www.devil-linux.org |

On Sat, 24 Nov 2001 00:33, Heiko Zuerker wrote: > how should we handle the harddisk support? > I think the first is to add the scripts from LFS which are related > to mounting and checking of filesystems. I would never use a non-journaling filesystem on devil-linux. We do run from CD-Rom because we do not want a filesystem that's not imune against interruption. If you read on you'll see that I suggest we use our own strategy regarding mounting of filesystems. > But how and where should we mount something? > I think the best would be, that /var is mounted to the HDD, > because most programs place there stuff there. It looks like, but I wouldn't mount a single /var. I'd rather mount a /var/squid, /var/spool/mqueue, .... Seperate partitions decouple each service that needs the harddisk from the other. If eg. squid fills its partition, ok, but mail works without interruption. > What is about the initial file structure? Should this be created > by a special script? How to check if the structure exists and was > created from the correct version of the script? I'd use LVM on top of a single harddiskpartition. So that should be fairly easy to automate, because if we find an unpartitioned drive we'd prompt the user if he want's to use this disk. # fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 16 heads, 63 sectors, 19885 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 1 19885 9970632 8e Linux LVM Now with LVM the logical partitioning should be fairly easy too. See an exapmle output of the available volume groups (vg): # vgdisplay --- Volume group --- VG Name devil-system VG Access read/write VG Status available/resizable VG # 0 MAX LV 256 Cur LV 4 Open LV 4 MAX LV Size 255.99 GB Max PV 256 Cur PV 1 Act PV 1 VG Size 9.51 GB PE Size 4 MB Total PE 2434 Alloc PE / Size 2434 / 9.51 GB Free PE / Size 0 / 0 So grepping for "Total PE" gives us the total logical extends (=sectors) which we then use to call the other lvm tools to make logical volumes (=logical partitions). So the startup script in initrd just needs to check if vgscan finds the volume group (logical harddisk) named devil-system then it could get on. If we are paranoid we'd check if we really find all needed logical volumes. eg. /dev/devil-system/mail-spool, /dev/devil-system/squid, ... Now, why do I want to go this way? Here are some facts * easy to automate fdisk in this way, just add on partition that's a big as the disk * we use logical partitions for the data, so we can resize them whenever needed, even during runtime * we could easily add software raid1 underneath lvm, there's just one partition we need to mirror * with ReiserFS/XFS/JFS on top we are up and running in "no" time if the user ever feels the need to push the power button or if there's power outage (UPS not really needed) -- MfG / Regards Friedrich Lobenstock |

Hi, how should we handle the harddisk support? I think the first is to add the scripts from LFS which are related to mounting and checking of filesystems. But how and where should we mount something? I think the best would be, that /var is mounted to the HDD, because most programs place there stuff there. What is about the initial file structure? Should this be created by a special script? How to check if the structure exists and was created from the correct version of the script? Any ideas or suggestions? cu Heiko |
