I'm thinking of running VirtualBox on my system, with a LSTP version as a guest os. Any recommendations? Hardware wise I should be okay; E8400 cpu with 8G RAM and enough HDD space.
14:18
brb
14:23
<Nubae>
yeah but running true virtualisation is recommended (kvm or xen) as with container VM u use aboutt 80% of original performance)
14:25
There is something for ubuntu that is a total vm solution,, I forget the name but its like JeOS or something
14:26
http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/jeos-and-vmbuilder.html
14:26
pronounced 'juice' heh
14:56
<wpgmb>
mmm.. not sure if this is what I actually need... To clarify - currently I have my own system and a dedicated server running 8.04 LTSP server for 4-5 hosts in my home. I'd like to house the LTSP in my box as a virtual machine. Couldn't I just install a vanilla LTSP server as a virtual machine?
14:58
<Nubae>
wpgmb: u probably could, but u are gonna run into quite a few problems
14:58
LTSP is not meant to run virtualised
14:59
<johnny>
what problems?
14:59
other than resources
15:00
<Nubae>
well generally its assumed u use an external /internal zone type setup
15:01
that doesnt really fit with the vm model... but I guess if you seperate off the components it wouldnt be too problematic...
15:01
but just on resources alone... it will run at about 80% of what it would do unvritualised
15:01
<wpgmb>
"well generally its assumed u use an external /internal zone type setup" clarify, please?
15:02
<Nubae>
LTSP = 2 network cards
15:04
<wpgmb>
Nubae: yes, I understand that.. That could simply be resolved by adding a couple of Nic's
15:05
.. and dedicate those to the virtual LTSP server
15:06
<Nubae>
theres more to take into account, those 2 nics are there for a reason, because normally its setup as internal serving dhcp to thin clients, surely those wont be virtual
15:07
anyway, the biggest issue I think is its a waste
15:07
and there are no benefits
15:09
<wpgmb>
Ok - I must be missing some important point here. I was under the impression that a virtual machine can operate as if it were a stand-alone unit. Granted - some hardware is shared, but to the outside, a host connected to a virtual server doesn't know the difference, albeit somewhat performance challenged.
15:09
<johnny>
that is true

hallo all
16:14
I read the manual about LDM rc scripts
16:15
I found about I, S and K scripts in this directory
16:15
but in rd.d LDM's direcotry I found X script too
16:16
<johnny>
/
16:16
?
16:17
<komunista>
please, when these X scripts are invoked?
16:18
<johnny>
at the same time
16:20
<komunista>
sorry, I do not understand
16:22
I, S and K scripts are invoked in diferent time (initialization, start and stop session)
16:22
<johnny>
oh, they are invoked last it looks like
16:23
after start
16:24
<komunista>
thanks

21:51
<johnny>
hi
21:52
<kc8pxy>
been quite a while. I'm trying to fix my genkernel initrd so it has not nin modules for broader support, so the nfs quits failing to mount.. but i forget how.
21:52
nic
21:53
<johnny>
edit the genkernel modules_load ?
21:53
kc8pxy, i don't have a gentoo box anymore
21:53
<kc8pxy>
really? wow.. it die?
21:54
<johnny>
no, that machine is now ubuntu ltsp server at red emmas
21:54pmatulis has quit IRC
21:54
<johnny>
my laptop is too slow to run gentoo
21:54
i'm using fedora 11
21:55
<kc8pxy>
kk
21:56
<johnny>
they wanted me to use ubuntu on the ltsp machine
21:56
since we already run ubuntu on the other machine
21:56
<kc8pxy>
MODULES_LOAD="" genkernel initrd .....??? i forget.
21:56
<johnny>
no.. it's a file in /usr/share/genkernel
21:56
<kc8pxy>
DOH.
21:56
ok
21:56
<johnny>
it's in a subdirectory therein

In ubuntu, I'm booting with PXE. I've disabled the splashscreen and enabled verbose output. The ouput starts getting interesting after "IP-Config: eth0 complete (from ...)", then fixe lines of information then "Error: Connect: Connection refused". Later "mount: mounting /rofs on /root/rofs failed: Invalid argument" and "mount: mounting /dev|sys|proc on /root/dev|sys|proc failed: No such file or directory". Finally "Target filesystem doesn
23:12
What does it all mean?
23:17
<johnny>
sounds like you're not running an essential service
23:17
like nbd
23:17
is nbd stuff properly in /etc/inetd.conf ?
23:20
<grimboy>
Oh wait, yes ndb.
23:20
I think the default configuration is broken I'll have a look.
23:22
johnny: What port should nbd run on?
23:22
(Since for some reason it's blank in my config)
23:26
Hmm, my goggles aren't working too well. Anyone got a working /etc/nbd-server/config they can paste in or pastebin or what have you?
23:32
There's /usr/sbin/nbdrootd which uses a configuration fileless nbd but it has the port set to 0
23:32
<johnny>
it should be provided by /etc/inetd.conf
23:32
not in /etc/nbd-server

There is an entry there. I'm having trouble understanding what's going wrong then.
23:44
I don't know if this means anything but I get a connection refused trying netcat localhost 2000
23:48
<johnny>
what does it say?
23:48
is the openbsd-inetd running right now?
23:50
<grimboy>
I'm using xinetd I think. Should I use openbsd-inetd instead?
23:53
I know xinetd is working in inetd compatibile mode because tftp works.
23:54
Wait, no it isn't.
23:55
Ah, I ran that myself. So I need to install openbsd-inetd
23:59
Works now. Whoo.
