Flash, per se, has never been part of Debian due to it’s being aggressively
proprietary. However, there have been various free or semi-free substitutes.
(I’ve never knowingly installed any such thing, but… )
Should Debian de-support those substitutes? If so, when?

It would be helpful in diagnosing your problem if you could tell us a little

After doing the cp or dd to write the .iso to the USB, do you do a “sync”

that’s because of buffering. Often it takes quite a while (a minute or more
for a very big write on a machine with plenty of RAM) to c
Yes, rsync has a “-x" option, which does the same thing as for cp: it keeps it

Hi Kamil,
You’d get a bit more space by configuring your 4 drives as a RAID5 array (3TB
usable for RAID5, vs 2TB usable for RAID10). The downside of RAID5 is that the
RAID10 (or the one LV with two RAID1 PVs — they amount to the same thing for
this discussion) can survive loosing two drives at

On powerpc (32-bit) machines, the Debian powerpc-utils package provides the
/sbin/autoboot command, which sets the machine’s pmu (power management unit?)

I recently added a USB3 PCI card to my Dell Poweredge 1430 server box.
I've tried plugging in various USB3 and USB2 devices (FLASH sticks, a WD
MyBook 3TB external drive, etc) but they are not recognized by Debian as
disks.
When I plug these devices into a USB2 card also on the same server, t

Plugging the disk in after reboot shows nothing happening with the USB3

Plugging it into the USB2 card gets the expected

Does anybody know which USB3 interface chipsets are supported by the current
Debian Jessie kernel?
Can anyone recommend an inexpensive PCI or PCIe USB3 interface card that works

Thanks!
