ITRC Forum statistics for June 2005

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

I noticed a lot of (very) good answers this week, and an frightening amount of (very) good answers that did get no points assigned.
I also noted some new posters just gave a bunny (the full 10 points) to every answer they got.
Neither is good for this forum.

10354 points this week. 318 posts (113 questions, 205 answers).
16 promotions and 25 waiting in line.

Full stats available on http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/ , https://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/, http://www.cmve.net/~merijn/ , or http://www.hpux.ws/merijn/

http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/stats.html takes an attempt in explaining all the numbers. I hope to have explained the FAQ's there.

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

Merijn,

may I please invite you to pay a visit to the first few VMS pages?

Recently there has been a whole shower of promotions, and I think your famous stats would be highly welcomed!

Proost.

Have one on me.

jpe

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

You may invite me, but don't expect too much.

My laptop's harddisk just crashed unrebootable. I used that box for congrats.

Replacing the disk is not the hardest problem, but how do I get the data from the old disk, including the system, back to live?

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn [ taking donations from now on ]

[Antoniov.]

Merijn,
may I help you in some way?

Antonio Vigliotti

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

Probably my laptop will be returned with a new blank disk

How do I get the content of the old disk (block 16 unreadable) back to life?

I have /some/ backups, but I will have no backup of my bookmarks and so on.
Since my laptop was very ... errr ... alive, LOTS changed every day, and making 40 Gb backups every day of a 4200 rpm laptop disk just takes away the fun

Second problem is that you cannot place a laptop disk in a workstation/pc/server/... and use dd/perl/c/... to see what is left to extract. The connectors are ... errr ... different.

So fore home-work, I have revived cygwin to an acceptable level: ssl/ssh/rsync all work fine now, but cygwin's X-server still refuses HP's X forwarding.

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

[Fred Ruffet]

hmmm.... well... Try to install a linux rescue system on a memory stick (http://slax.linux-live.org/?lang=en for example). Get it with a good network module available and also module for the FS you have on the disk. dd it thhrough network to a distant file (yeah, I know 40GB is big) then you may be able to dd it the other way to the new disk on a secondary partition (if disk is bigger) or an other machine...

It may only be a good lookin therory, but it may work.

Good luck,

Fred

[Uwe Zessin]

I think you're looking for something like this, aren't you?

http://shop.store.yahoo.com/laptopsforless/25to35laphar.html

[Antoniov.]

I understand your laptop os is not windows so I'm not able to help you :-(
Uwe's link is a good starting point.
After you reinstall new hd, you could use usb portable hd like follow
http://www.usb-2-0.com/usb-2-0-hard-drive.html
http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/drives/5ad4/
http://www.usb-ware.com/ads-usb-2-hard-drive-kit.htm
and many other devices.
You can backup every day form internal HD to external usb box in little time.

Antonio Vigliotti

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

Once the new disk is up and running, Uwe's link will have to help me with restoring what I've lost.

The OS is NOT the problem. Yes, the laptop does not run Winblows (of course). It ran SuSE 9.3 Linux, and it will run that again.

My workstation is SuSE 9.2, so I've got all I want - OS wise. Including bootable DVD's and such.

More points to earn in giving me the best link to (reiser)FS recovery sw. No points for NTFS or FAT support. My FS is reiserfs. I already planned to use either dd (which might stop dead on the bad blocks), perl or dedicated C to read the old disk once the `Uwe'-device is installed (my colleage ordered one from a european site, he also thought it a good idea to have that available anyway).

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn [ real stats again tomorrow :) ]
