Greetings Can you tell I don't do this very often? (Its been some number of years and I'm not remembering most of the details and I just don't like oopses!!)
One of the things that I'm doing different in my new install is that the system itself is going to be on a raid-1 (mirror). So how can I start by setting up the mirrors? (4 drives - - - 2 mirrors) Then - - - I've got a lot of software that I have installed on my present box. How do I generate a list of stuff, easily human readable, so that I can set up the new box with most of the stuff that I have on the present system? (I am moving from debian testing to devuan testing as well if that presents any gotchas.) I have used partitions for /efi, /boot, /, /usr, /usr/local, /var and /home for a long time now. Any need to change this practice? Had used btrfs for my latest filesystem instead of ext4 upon recommendation by a mentor (who is now deceased). Is this a good idea or are other options 'better'? Hopefully not too many questions! TIA _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
