  1. Re: Add'l drive created by Ubuntu during installation

    sda7 has an ext4 file system. Mount it and see if there's anything inside it. Doesn't seem to be part of the install. No clue how it was created, unless you attempted the install, twice, killing it...

    Lots of guesses. Check the easy things first.

  7. Sticky:Poll: Re: Share with us your Noble Numbat installation/Upgrade Experience

    The poll is starting to be useful, but we need more than just 19 votes. Only 10% had huge issues. That's encouraging considering all the possible wonky configurations there are in the world.

    [ubuntu] Re: Overnight update brought down nginx

    Patching too often is a liability. unattended-upgrades are dangerous. Nobody here works for Canonical, so you need to open a critical bug in Landscape if you actually want anyone to do something...

    Re: Mount NFS from specific interface

    Normally, if there are two NICs on the same network, then they'd be identical models with the same bandwidth.

    I don't know. Opinions follow - verify things you might think are facts.
