Hi,
This is probably stupid, but without trying each and every
mount/filesystem type, is there a way to tell the filesystem of a
formatted disk? I can see the label with fdisk -- and it says Linux 83,
but I was told it was reiserfs, but get the error:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc1,
or too many mounted file systems
and I know reiserfs works, since my other filesystems are mounted with
reiserfs. Now, this was originally created on a Mandrake 8.x system -
2.4 kernel, with current reiser package, but shouldn't I be able to
mount it?
Oh, one other issue -- it was a part of a ATARAID/mirror set before, but
I would think since it was a mirror I should be able to mount the good
one (the other died as did the motherboard).
thanks
Kat

Ah. No, that's not the way RAID works. -- -ckm

jlemay@njmc.com pointed out that that I missed the raid 1 part of this (I read 5 for some reason). Yes, that should work. Sorry about that,
My apologies for the direct reply. I forgot that when I reply to this list it actually goes to the sender if I don't change the To: field. My actual response was:
Not true. I regularly use Highpoint and Promise ATA RAID contollers. Any disk that was part of a RAID 1 (mirror) set can be booted on its own regardless of whether it was the primary or mirror disk in the set. I
This is in fact EXACTLY how RAID 1 works. Lose a disk, boot from the other one.

I was going to point out that it is easy to automatically add a "reply-to" header, but then I noticed you are using the other OS ;-) Anyway... this rule in .procmailrc works: # Add a Reply-To to this mail list, and move to the correct file. :0f * ^X-Mailinglist: suse-linux-e | /usr/bin/formail -bfi "Reply-To:suse-linux-e@suse.com" :0 a: $HOME/Mail/lists/suse-linux-e -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson

Hey, great idea! I was going to use your idea to add an extra filter action in kmail, when I discovered that kmail itself offers the option to change the Reply-To header. Life is sweet! :-) Paul.

Well, I thought I already did. It 's so simple, but until recently I did not realize that setting the Reply-To is one of the possible filter actions. Anyway, here is how it goes: Setting -> Configure Filters... Select or create your suse-linx-e filter Under "Filter Actions": set pull-down menu to "set Reply-To to" fill in suse-linux-e@suse.com Press "More" (to add second action) set pull-down menu to "move to folder" select the folder Press "OK" That's all. Paul.

In kmail, why not just use the "reply to list" function? Get in the habit to reply to mail with "l" (small L). Then you won't have to edit the "to" list when you actually do want to reply off-list Anders

Duhh, another option that I did not know about. I really should explore KMail a bit more. Speaking of which: would you happen to know how to create a short-cut for "Mark current thread as read an go to next meassage"? In KNode such a feature exists (Ctrl-D), but in KMail I miss this very much. Paul.

No, sorry. But Kmail and knode are in the process of merging their code base, so in future I would expect features like that to be common to both. In the mean time, http://bugs.kde.org is always open. File a bug with severity "feature request". Then get your friends to vote for it. If enough people vote for it, it'll get done Anders

OK, this time it's not my lack of exploration.

Sounds good. It always made me wonder why KMail and KNode do not share more commonality.

Will do. Paul.

What about a feature to mark a thread as "ignore" or "watch"? This can be done in mozilla, but only on news groups. On such mails as this one, being able to ignore threads, and mark those threads we are really interested in reading, would be very nice. Does it exist, that feature? -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson

Somewhere I must have missed this. You or someone has probably mentioned it before. When I read it, I tried, and it is the best thing going. Thanks..

Mike Tried it , but it doesn't work at all. There is NO difference in using "l" OR "L". Using SuSE 8.1 -- /bill from 169 west , 19 south. (where the hell is that?).
Please let me know if I didn't send this to you.
Let me try another form of this question if you would not mind... If I can "dd" the hard drive, (and see data) what would be the recommended way to get the data to another drive? thanks Kat On Wed, 2003-02-05 at 18:13, Christopher Mahmood wrote:

Did you try running reiserfsck?

If the motherboard dies, I'm not sure if the integrity of the raid can
be guaranteed. Anything could have happened, the RAID disk could have
received all sorts of garbage data.
