Description

Upgrade
master_baackend | run frontend | 800x600 | no mythwelcome | no remote
No NFS Server | show shortcuts | Auto updates ALL
reboot | cd did not eject | ejected it with button on drive
alsactl: load_state:1559 ... /etc/sound.astate no such file (No audio on the machine)

/etc/X11/xorg.conf is blank/empty
/etc/mdadm.conf was not restored from backup
Unsure about MySQL tables (I need a good command line command to list entries in a table -- I don't know SQL very well)

After debugging with jams today it seems that mdadm.conf is restored using the latest iso jams sent me. However, the UUID of the RAID array (/dev/md0) was not inserted into /etc/fstab (It was blank -- UUID= /myth auto ...blah,blah). Xorg.conf was not restored, but I found it in /etc.old/X11/xorg.conf

The backup and restore scripts hadn't been ported for Arch Linux yet.

Arch does a number of things differently from the old Debian base:

  • Location of certain binaries is different
  • Location of LinHes scripts is different
  • Location of the DB data files is different
  • Daemon start/stop are different

I'm testing an updated and ported version of the script now, but the backup and restore lists still need to be reviewed.

A straight restore of xorg.conf mostly like won't work coming from KnoppMyth to LinHES.

Must have been the food. I was sitting down eating when I thought of how to merge xorg.conf from KnoppMyth and LinHES. I'll script it up in the next day or two.
