i've changed a bit the /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf i've set dep, and i've used gzip, compress level 5 as compression, cause update initram tells me it's using gzip since it can't find zstd to compress things however the outcome is always the same: ➜ /boot nano /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf ➜ /boot update-initramfs -u update-initramfs: Generby Carlo - Debian
Can I safely reboot without the uenv file and if the initrd is too big?by Carlo - Debian
Hi I've just started following the instructions to upgrade my box kernel to 6.13,,but I. Can't seem to shrink initrd to a reasonable size: it always stands at 13 Mb: am I missing something? And if I make the uenv.Txt file, somehow the HD I use as storage has raid partitions (so my disk is full of /dev/mtdblock4 etc) shoulf I mention those partitions together with ide USB etc?

hi i'm moving printer from my office (a konica bizhub 5020i) home anytime soon, and i'd like to be able to print fom there anytime and anywhere: should/can i use the nsa with debian in order to accomplish this desire? and how would i be able to do it? thank youuuby Carlo - Debian
Oh, mounting md0 works No idea why a raid is there, besides its involving just one partition.. Can I disassemble a raid without formatting?by Carlo - Debian

thank you very much bodhi i've successfully installed everything, though i forgot to name the hd "rootfs"..... now i have issues with vsftpd.. but i hope i can find clues on the internetby Carlo - uBoot
alas i cannot even do apt update: i get "indentation error" and other nice stuff so i gotta go for the for the erasure.. just i noticed that according to /etc/fstab my rootfs should be an ext4.. is it an issue?by Carlo - uBoot
thank you for your answer, i didn't remember i had to follow the topic to be notified do you think it is worth trying to jump from stretch to buster before replacing the rootfs?by Carlo - uBoot
Hi it's been a while i enjoyed playing with my kirkwood so i've forgotten everything; my issue is rather simple: some packages like apache2 are missing dependencies and this broke even ftp connections since i've been trying hard to fix it, even by adding newer repos, i guess the easiest solution is to format and reinstall debian, just i don't remember how to do it and aboby Carlo - uBoot
welll somehow i could recover it.... cpulimit script conflicted with watchdog and somehow it didn't cope with amule-daemon so i had to move the script, reboot, could install amule things, then made sure the daemon booted along with the nas, i could put the cpulimit back in place i repeat: no idea why all of this happened, but now it seems to work fairlyby Carlo - Debian
weeelll... i just wanted to have the donkey ready to be used.... but now.. stubborn as it is it won't work but now my issue is: should i format the hd and put the bodhi prepared operative system upon it, or i can somehow fix it?by Carlo - Debian
Darn technological evolution! when shall we learn! when!? however... let's check if i can avoid formatting: i've successfully installed amule, then i said myself: let's install amule-adunanza (which is a modified version of amule for my internet provbider) as well! i got till the point i got the message: configure: error: wxWidgets must be installed on your systemby Carlo - Debian
i didnt even suspect there was an alternative to dos in those times.... i'm a consumer, or a user which feels unlucky.. not sure yet QuoteGravelrash not sure i agree with that... linux users, as opposed to linux consumers, are usually a bunch of technical people who can find a different way to do the same thing when a developer drops what they consider to be an aged architecture. anyoby Carlo - Debian
actually i've started arranging myself, as you said: omv is useful just to set permissions with a couple of clicks and it doensìt burn the cpu . i've successfully added amule, though it took me a little more than i expected to have it working i've had to install cpulimit to keep amule quiet then i have had to add an entry in cron to restart cpulimit daemon since after some 15by Carlo - Debian
thank you for your prompt reply, but my issue is slightly different: it's not how to, but compatibility: debian stretch is ocmpatible with omv4, but omv4 plugins won't be developed at all for armel architecture, which my nsa325v2 seems to belong toby Carlo - Debian
Hi all, thanks to bodhi's patience i've been able to make my nsa325v2 boot from linux. Now i have another difficult question: omv 4 is noty uspporting plugins for armel cpus: is there any other a bit graphic nas tool to be installed over a debian basis? i mean a gui with possibility to control file sharing, jdownlaoder, hosting, etc?by Carlo - Debian
