This is a small one-liner "script" to send an email on every reboot of a machine.

I don't have an account there, but I should consider putting it there.

I searched for a backup bash script for Ubuntu/Linux to backup folders locally and remotely (from Linux or Windows), but didn't find any serious and up-to-date one. So, I wrote a script, which has...

Hi, when I do a

apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade --yes

this is what comes as an error:

Thanks Seiji, this is a good idea, but not so convenient.
By the way, I tested the speed of downloading a regular file from a webserver from Internet. It's downloading with about 7-8MB/s again. And...

OK, let me explain it simple:
I have a File server and a PC.
1. The File server shares a folder with Samba (192.168.13.252/Folder).

2. The PC doesn't have free space on itself. It downloads...

Thanks SeijiSensei, but I think you overlooked my explanation. The problem is exactly with the Samba sharing. I am downloading the same torrent with 6MB/s locally on the PC, but when downloading on...

Well, yes, I'm sharing the file, while it is still downloading, but it is not accessed by anyone, because it is still not downloaded :)
It couldn't be otherwise, because I'm downloading the torrent...

I don't understand your question. Do you mean, "is the torrent client seeding files, before they are downloaded completely"?

Hi, I'm unable to find a way to use the full network speed when downloading torrents, although I searched Google hardly.
I have a file server, with a shared HDD and a client, downloading torrents on...

Thanks.
I did a convert to the same type (qcow2) and it removed all of the snapshots, but the image wasn't repaired. Well I started the guest, created the partition the same way it was before with...

I've done a snapshot during machine running and it gave no error. After that the image is corrupted and no partitions at all at the Ubuntu server 12.04 guest.
I am DEAD if I don't fix it!!!
Please...

@darkod Thanks for helping out!
The problem seems to be not a bug, but by design (stupid design). When a machine is not cleanly shutdown a "recordfail" state sits in and tells GRUB that it was not...

Now I set the "GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET " option to false so the timer can show.
The result:
- when I do a manual reboot - the timer shows and the countdown works, the system loads automaticaly
-...

By default it doesn't count down (visibly). Now, neither.

I hope that can be helpful - the problem was because there was no space left for one of the images I used for that VM. It was qcow2 image and was not preallocated, so it increased rapidly. I had...

Yes, it sits at the menu with kernels and waits for you to press Enter.

Hi :)
I have installed two or three ubunut-server 12.04 64bit and 32bit until now. There are problems with the autoloading of GRUB. Sometimes it doesn't autoload, just stays at the menu screen. You...

Hi and thanks for answering!
I have made some progress on the issue and in order to not duplicate it, you can see it here:...

Hi I have a problem with qcow2 image files.
When the guest OS writes files it is all OK and the file disk size is increasing. When I delete something, the disk size is not decreasing (which I wrote...

Well, now it did it again, with acpid stopped. It just didn't print the message. It just dies...
Please, help!!!

OK, now with the latest dying, I had leaved a console in the guest turned on with htop. So, when the machine died, there was a message - "Power button pressed.", which leads me to acpid. There was no...

Anyone knows how could I diagnose this?
