stateless linux
by Peter Schobel
i have 2 filesystems mounted from my fstab /filestore and /mnt/usb
they are mounted ok and i can see the data but i can't see them in
/etc/mtab or running df
also, my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file is still
disappearing and yet sometimes the file will be gone but the interface
will still load
i really feel like i need to have a better understanding of what the
stateless-client and readonly-root packages are doing in order to admin
this system
if anyone can point me to some docs it would be _much_ appreciated
i checked out the sml source from cvs but it didn't seem like there's
anything in there that resembles documentation
thx in advance,
Peter Schobel

stateless linux

when i run /etc/cron.hourly/stateless-replicator on the stateless
client, it seems to rsync the snapshot and change the disk labels every
time
shouldn't it be checking the ldap tree to see if the snapshot that is
running is current and then if it is, do nothing?

Addition : Ink Level
by Richard Hughes
I currently have no way of checking my
ink level (for a epson printer) in FC3
without compiling and installing other
programs such as epsutil. Surly an
enterprise class distribution such as
FC3 should have some kind of ink
monitor in the main distribution.
Maybe it could be built into the CUPS
dialog or even in the printer tools.
I remember that RH9 had something in
the base install of KDE to do this
(in the printer setup), but I dont
want to install and load KDE just to
check my ink levels.
Is anything being worked on currently
for this? Is it something that should
be linked with HAL?
Thanks for any input.

it seems that my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file seems to
inexplicably disappear sometimes as well and then networking does not
come up
in the case of the /etc/modprobe.conf file, i end up with a blank file
in the case of the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file,
it vanishes completely

/proc/config.gz support on? Why not?
by Sam Williams
Why doesn't FC3 have the /proc/config.gz option turned on by default? It
adds such a small amount of size to the kernel and it removes the need
to search and try and locate the config files used to build a given FC3
kernel release?

is this right? shouldn't the configuration be pinab and the snapshot be
pinab-4 and the protocol be rsync?
[root@pinab ~]# stateless-status
Clients:
