Etch with kernel 2.6.12-1-686 (2.6.12-10) Gnome desktop
........................................................
1) The first time I booted after installing Etch and the first time I
booted after a test restore of my system, I got the following error box:
No volume control elements and/or devices found
run gst-register
I can't find any "gst-resister" on the system or in packages???
I don't have any speakers plugged in, but do have headphones plugged
that just provide static. Sometimes when I do something wrong in
Terminal I hear a faint beep from inside the CPU :-X
.........................................................
2) How is log rotation setup. Are they auto jobs like on my Mac, or do
I need to setup something?
.........................................................
3) Before I get too far along, I created a system image on DVD with
Mondo and as a test went through the actual restore. All seems well,
but I want to be sure my RAID1 is still running properly now. I can't
seem to find where to look???
.........................................................
3.5) The steps below are how I used mondoarchive and mondorescue. If
you're familiar with the package, please make any comments about my use
of the package you feel are appropriate :-)
CREATE SYSTEM IMAGE ON DVD(s) using root terminal
***create system iso(s)***
mondoarchive -Oi -s 4600m -N -0 -F -I / -E "/proc /tmp /root/images
/home/mondo" -d /home/mondo/images -S /home/mondo/scratch1 -T
/home/mondo/scratch2
***write DVD(s)*** (wrapper script if for ProDVD key)
cdrecord-wrapper.sh -v -dao dev=/dev/hdd:1,2,0 fs=16m speed=1
/home/mondo/images/<each iso in turn>
***Verify***
boot from 1st DVD
type "compare" at prompt and follow instructions
***Restore***
boot from 1st DVD and either:
1) press enter for "nuke" - recreates and restores complete system
automatically
2) enter "interactive" and make selections and follow instructions
can also be done in live mode (regular sesion) by the cli mondorescue
3) enter "expert" - then do your thing at the prompt
Thank you,
Lee C
