I was at work today, doing a bare metal restore on a Linux box. (I was trying to set up replication of a production server, so I restored a root tarball onto a bare metal box, same partition table, identicle hardware)

I started cursing out loud at the thing, visibly upset.
A non-technical co-worker asked what was wrong. I said something like - Basically, the drivers for the scsci controllers come up in a different order from the rescue cd then they do from the production kernel, and completely make nonesense all of anything that refrences /dev/sdxx, like grub, fstab, e2label, and I need to makeinitrd, blah blah..

She was like ooo.. OK.

I got to thinking, what if this was a real disastor? And, I started doubting my skills you know.. lol. I had a mood swing I guess. I did not cry though.

I'm rambling. I'm killing time actually.. Hey! it's almost quitting time. Ok bye.
