So if you are talking about mirrored drives, you should be able to start the array with one drive missing. So you won't have any problems getting your data back, because it hasn't really gone away. If you look at the output of /proc/mdstat, you will see something like this (using one of my one RAID1 pairs as an example): $ cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1] [raid10] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [multipath] md0 : active raid1 sdj2[4] sdi2[3] 185545656 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] bitmap: 1/2 pages [4KB], 65536KB chunk So /dev/md0 has two disks, /dev/sdj2 and /dev/sji2. In the worst case, I could boot the system from a LiveCD and just do: mdadm -A -a auto to assemble automatically any arrays it finds. A good reference to all this is the Linux RAID Wiki at: https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Linux_Raid but the big big big thing I want to stress is that you *never* run the 'mdadm --create ...' command when trying to recover a broken RAID array of any type unless you are absolutely certain you know what you are doing. DO NOT. Get help first. Post to the Linux RAID mailing list. But DO. NOT. try to create an array to recover it. It's almost certainly the wrong thing to do. I'd be happy to talk Linux RAID at the meeting, but as most of you know, I'm happy to talk period. See you thursday! John

free stuff

by Scott Venier

I'm currently in the process of moving into a new apartment and have a couple of boxes worth of stuff that I don't really feel like packing up and moving. That means it's time for the annual WLUG freestuff shuffle. ;) http://www.scooter.cx/~scott/freestuff First come, first serve. Act quickly, and I can even bring it to the meeting tomorrow evening. Act less quickly, and we can meet some other time. Act slowly, and I have to lug it into the new apartment. That's no fun. If you're not local, or know someone who's not local that wants something, I'll ship as long as I get paypal'd the cost of shipping. Anything that's not claimed by Friday is getting put up on craigslist, so don't delay. Scott

I've got an HP OfficeJet K60 that works quite nicely under SANE. I'm afraid the demo of installing would be a bit boring... printing worked out of the box with redhat 7.3, and scanning required installing 1 rpm. I've been playing with a CGI to make scanning a bit more streamlined (and something that I can do from work when I don't feel like working). It's still a work in progress, but I can show it off too. All this and we should still be able to hit the Boytan by 7:30. :) Scott

Re: [Wlug] WLUG Meeting Tonight: Topic: FM radio broadcast automation and linux! NOTE the location!

by Tim Keller

I believe at this point ALL the rooms in WPI have hdmi. That shouldn't be a problem. I do believe all the rooms have at the podium a 3mm head phone jack. Thanks, Tim.

Re: Intersection of Open Source and Social Change

Sorry I couldn't join for dinner after the last meeting. Sounds like it was a good conversation. I'm definitely interested in further conversation about tech and social change. /mike On Mon, Aug 12, 2024 at 2:55 PM John Stoffel via WLUG <wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> wrote: > >>>>> "Gregory" == Gregory Boyce via WLUG <wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> writes: > > > Awesome.

WPI - Linux Installfest

by Henrique

Hello, The WPI ACM group is hosting a InstallFest event, in which students interested in learning linux come around to try a distribution, and we are looking for speakers/more experience people to join. If you are interested in joining, send me a message. The event is on Nov 29th, 2011 in WPI at Kaven Hall, room 202, (I will send another reminder with directions when the day before, and put some signs around). What: Linux InstallFest Where: WPI, Kaven Hall, Room 202 When: Nov 29, 2011 Also, I will be unable to attend the meeting on Thursday since I will be presenting at Spark Party. (And turning on the big tesla coils, but no playing music with it yet.) WLUG is welcome to join once the meeting is over. Spark Party is from 6pm to 10pm on AK116. Thanks, Henrique "nican" Polido.
