Fsck Ivan!
« on: September 17, 2004, 08:18:01 PM »
Ivan (what was left of it) rolled on through my area last night, knocking out power for about three hours from 10:00 to 1:00am.  I was working on the 3000UX at the time (stupid!) and compilation was ongoing when everything cut off.  I turned off the switch before going to sleep, and this morning turned it on....and fsck failed, manual intervention required :-(

I guess when I get back I will do the ol "fsck -y and cross fingers" thing.  Failing that -- reinstall!!

Unfortunately the gcc 2.7.2.3, apache, and a couple others have not been moved off the machine yet.  That is a couple days of compiling lost if I can't recover it.

Bummer :-(

It's AALLIIIIIVEEE!  It just needed a good fscking.

What me, learn a lesson?  Heck no!  It just shows how hardcore I am!!

But I did hook it to the rackmount UPS I have in there.  Don't know why I didn't do that before.  I don't reckon power outages will be an issue now.
