Hi all
I have setup 2 software raids (5 and 0) with 3 hard disks (120, 160, 250
Go) on my gutsy box. The raid 5 array (md0) contains the root system,
and the raid 0 array (md1) is mounted as a storage (unused) partition.
The /boot partition is a normal ext3 partition, present on each disk

Yes, indeed this will do the trick. But it requires knowledge of some
quite arcane utilities -- not usually
Couldnt fsck be run periodically in read-only mode during normal
operation (ie. while the disks are mounted), and if an error is detected
ask for a restart so fsck will be run during boot-up?
I am not aware of how fsck operates, so this may not be possible.

You're right - a deeper analysis is needed

Woh ! Absolutely nobody can help me on this question ? I've already

Where could I find help on this subject ? The kernel team ? Who has

Hi
With a recent thread on ML i came again across a problem with Thunderbird
that i had myself 1 or 2 years ago.
Thunderbird uses mailbox files to store mails and an aditionally *.msf file
for meta data of that mbox-file.
Now when you delete a mail in TB it only disappears in the mail pane but is

gparted won't help here. If you want to make sure new, even

Autofsck does look like the way to go. Especially nice would be the option
to run a manual fsck, although that might already be an option ('a test can
be run' or is that something else?). I'm definitely in favour of this.

Folks,
Wondering where Ubuntu is going w/r/t automated installations. I see
bits on Kickseed, but nothing in Gutsy. I see per
https://launchpad.net/kickseed/ that it was in Feisty.
Perhaps the focus is on Kickstart or Preseed?
Thanks,
Mike
