Luks on Ubuntu 14.04
by Randy Jonasz 24 Jul '15

24 Jul '15

Hey everyone, I've been trying to resolve an issue unlocking a luks encrypted partition on boot using Ubuntu 14.04. I've set it up to automatically unlock after the root partition's password has been entered by adding the target entry into /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/cryptroot. I have 6 drives in this machine and 5 unlock fine. The 6th errors out with unkonwn fs or bad options or password. I can unlock the partition after boot using the derived key from cryptroot. I've tried to zero out the drive and start over but the problem persists. Can anyone give me any pointers on how to solve this? The drive is used as a cache drive for the zfs file system. Thanks! Randy

IDE and tips for working with JavaScript?
by Caroly Fisher 24 Jul '15

24 Jul '15

First off, I know not Linux related things go to off topic. I'm not sure if the sender is supposed to direct the topic or not. Sorry if I should be~ I was looking at working on my code again, and decided to try tapping into JavaScript. I'll need a simple IDE (that will of course run on Linux, but most of them do so meh). I've minimal experience with JavaScript, and coding as a whole. My currently favored IDE is Brackets. It's been great so far, and works with JavaScript. Of course, not being familiar with JS, I'm not sure how well it works with JavaScript. Any tips on a similar IDE that may be more compatible with JavaScript and just tips in general about starting with JS would be of great help. I apologize if the question is too vague. Thanks!

Git question
by William Muriithi 24 Jul '15

24 Jul '15

Afternoon I have a git repo called configurations. I want to add the directory /etc/ansible to the repo. Problem is when I clone the repo, I am not able to commit the ansible directory as the ansible root directory is outside the repo? Is there a way of getting the ansible directory into git without using a symlink? Regards, William‎

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Can anyone tell me how to watch real time streaming of the PanAm games from cbc.ca/panam? When I click on a streaming link on that page all I get is a black rectangle. I must be missing something. I have Debian Jessie and Iceweasel.

block count exceeds size of device
by Mike Kallies 20 Jul '15

20 Jul '15

Hey Everyone, This might be worth a good laugh. tl;dr version: filesystem is about 100 blocks too big for the device, not sure why. - mount says fs is too big for device - fsck says fs is too big for device - resize2fs says to fsck - fsck says it's ok - resize2fs says to fsck I can see the contents under testdisk. It's nothing which isn't backed up elsewhere. It's a 1.5TB filesystem, so it can be slow to work with. The plan was to check what I put on it and repurpose the disk. At this point I'm thinking I'll use testdisk to poke around then repartition and reformat. Any thoughts about this?
