When you have one(only 1) disk in your
mail/web/whatever server... and the disk is starting
to go "Unable to read block #" ..... then you really better hurry to get your disk replaced!
!!
it will within a very short timeframe.. fail completely... and if you (as I have!) set up th
e drive with LVM... it is not just as simple as making a clone from old to new disk using "d
d" .... (which.. in retrospect I should have!!)
1. Follow most of the instructions here
until you get to the "ext2online" .. which i think is a RedHar/Fedora thing....
and use:
e2fsck -f "LV Name"
resize2fs "LV Name"
"LV Name" you get from the "lvdisplay" command.....
Sigh...... This is a complete f#!#!#### up....
beware if you're on PowerPC platform... then these commands will definitely screw up your in
stallation...
You have to boot using a rescue cd... and _not_until_then_ when you have these devices _not_
mounted will you be able to use the "e2fsck" command..
and so another PowerPC Linux got stuffed.....

Replacing a disk on Debian(Lenny)

I have for some time been tryng to get
OpenBravo installed on Debian, Lenny(PowerPC)... but getting
nowhere as the the installation got stuck on “Executing
creation script for the complete database”....
and have not been find a solution for this... as i tried to install this on amd64, I noticed that the package also installed the “unixodbc” package which is a prereq for the sun-java6 ... but not so when you try to install just the openjdk(which is the only alternative on PowerPC)
so go back to PowerPC or stay on amd64 ?????
