#1226 Hardware & System Configuration » BDRE mounted read only » 2019-07-01 19:08:00

Got a PC with an ASUS BW-16D1HT blue ray writer, that is capable to read/write BDRE media. Bought a set of Verbatim BD-RE25 disks, formatted them under Win7 to UDF2.5, and tried to mount them under ASCII amd64, latest backports kernel 4.19.bpo5. I always get:
# mount -t udf -o rw,noatime,async,users /dev/sr0 /media/DVDRAM
mount: /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-onlyFormatting/writing a new UDF2.5 file system under ASCII works, but does not change the behaviour. udftools are installed.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Rolf
#1227 Re: Installation » Installing Devuan ASCII Amd64 from DVD (full ISO) - no CD-ROM found » 2019-07-01 18:56:47
Have successfully used devuan_ascii_2.0.0_amd64_dvd-1.iso from one of the mirrors listed on https://devuan.org/get-devuan, also the CD or the netinstall version, cannot complain about the installer, it worked. There is no bug. You may also load the file directly from https://files.devuan.org/devuan_ascii/installer-iso/.
Make sure your download is fine by checking the hash.
You say you got a newer PC. I would assume that PC has an EFI bios. Make sure you boot the DVD in the same mode the bios is set up, i.e. normally if the bios is set to CSM mode, or by boot override in EFI mode.
Good luck, Rolf

I typically just use the backports kernel. So far only good experiences.

#1229 Re: Installation » (SOLVED) Install to an SD card » 2019-06-18 15:24:58
Well, I have made the experience that I should always removed all other media with OS installations and all USB sticks if I want a clean install. grub always gave me issues when I forgot to follow that rule.

I am happy with apt autoremove, its works fine in ASCII and Beowulf.

#1231 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Shutdown encrypted LVM on Beowulf » 2019-05-30 06:44:57
I tried the proposed workaround on a freshly installed beowulf system. Unfortunately, it seems to make no difference. Anyone tried this recently?
Works fine on my Beowulf x64 system. Look at entry #7, filename to patch is /lib/cryptsetup/cryptdisks-functions. Shutdown is really fast.

Works now. Rolf
#1233 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [Solved] Webserver: connection refused » 2019-05-11 20:51:36
The script has something that looks to me like a LSB header, but I lack the knowledge to determine if it is correct. Looks like it is working.
Thanks, rc-update add webmin default was needed to add webmin to the list. After a reboot the service is present now.
I found a second way to get it working: add sh /etc/init.d/webmin start @reboot to the crontab. Also does the job.
I now do a power off and restart from there to check if it still is working.
Thanks you for your feedback, Rolf
#1234 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [Solved] Webserver: connection refused » 2019-05-11 19:47:16
Why does the existing script in init.d not do the job?
Rolf
#1235 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [Solved] Webserver: connection refused » 2019-05-11 19:25:11
Some more background info: I have configured Webmin to a different port. The ss command does not show anything, no matter if Webmin is running or not.
But I think I know whats going on: Webmin isn't started by default. sh /etc/init.d/webmin start works and starts the service, then I can talk to the server. And I checked the setting that should start Webmin during boot. After a reboot again there is no access, running the init.d script enables everything again.
So the issue is with the start of Webmin during boot of the server. Looks like this does not work.
The server runs with openrc. Maybe the issue is there? What do I need to check?
Thanks, Rolf

Not a good idea - installing directly from Debian repos could put you in a world of hurt. Devuan filters the Debian repos and bans packages that could break your system. The Debian packages that won't break Devuan are already provided via redirect to the Devuan repos.
I did not want to suggest that the OP should directly link Debian repos, but when he looks for e.g. Virtual Box from Oracle, that he should use the Debian Stretch package for ASCII.

@krauser: give ASCII a try, its Stretch without systemd. If you want to install external packages that are available for Debian use the Stretch package and it works.

#1238 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [Solved] Webserver: connection refused » 2019-05-10 20:37:26
Stop, back to square one. The server was off a day or two, just switched it on and tried to continue my setup. Again, I have no access to the file server from my workstation. Again the checksum problem when trying to connect. Looks like something is happening during power off.
Where can I check the port setting of Webmin on the file server? I can access it via putty/ssh, but when looking thhrough the webmin configs I can't find any location where the port etc is saved.
I am using webmin 1.900 which is/was the latest version.
Rolf
#1239 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [Solved] Webserver: connection refused » 2019-05-10 19:22:28
Everything in a small home network segment. Via ssh with putty worked, ping worked, did not try to go out from the fileserver to one of my clients.
Anyhow, its solved now.
Thanks for your input, Rolf
#1240 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [Solved] Webserver: connection refused » 2019-05-08 19:07:57
Well, it works now after re-installing Webmin on the server. Logs were not helpful, there was no indication in auth.log or syslog or so. Must have been human error during first use....
Thanks, Rolf

On May 1st I have set up a new file server based on Beowulf, and installed Webmin to configure some settings. A first test with Firefox ESR showed that I have access. Then I did some other stuff, and meanwhile the FF addon bullshit happened, and a few updates were installed on Beowulf.
Today I tried again to connect to the file server and got connection refused with FF, Chromium and Epiphany. What may have changed since then?
tcpdump tells on all requests: Flags "["S"]", cksum 0x20c6 (incorrect -> 0x774a)". Is that normal or the problem?
Connecting to the old file server works.
Suggestions?
Thanks, Rolf
#1242 Re: Other Issues » deb.devuan.org doesn't get updates for Jessie, auto.mirror.devuan does » 2019-05-07 14:36:27
Do you have any comments on the use of http as opposed to the use of https?
I think I started to use https following mailing list discussion, as it seemed to have been put forward as a good idea!

@admins: I would like to support this request.

Just gave it a try and installed apt-transport-https on my Beowulf system. apt update fails after changing to https://deb.devuan.org/merged/ with the same errors as in #5. It works with https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged.

I am on http://deb.devuan.org/merged/ and that works fine. I remember trying/failing https.

BTW: this patch is not yet in the repos. The last cryptsetup update shipped yesterday? removed the patch again.

#1246 Re: Installation » Installing devuan to lvm partitions within dm-crypt container » 2019-05-06 20:21:28
What remains is:
[ ok ] Unmounting local filesystems ... done
* ERROR: cryptdisks failed to stop
* ERROR: cryptdisks-early failed to stopI have got that in my 3 Beowulf installations (and ASCII too). I would expect that you see that too.

#1248 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Replacement for system-config-lvm in Beowulf » 2019-05-03 15:21:07
There could be if you forked and packaged it for Devuan.
Beyond my capabilities.
Tried to install the ASCII package and could succeed with the installation, but running the application fails due to dbus issues.

#1249 Re: Installation » Beowulf netinstall no more finds kernel modules » 2019-05-03 07:00:39
I believe the first link is the newest netinstall for beowulf: https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dis … s/netboot/
However, I'm still getting the same issue with it as well.
Look at the date of this iso. It is from April 2018, outdated. Fooled me too...

Up til ASCII/Stretch system-config-lvm is a nice tool to configure a LVM on the desktop. With Buster/Beowulf it has been removed from the repos due to lack of maintenance.
Is there a replacement available with similar capabilities?
Thanks, Rolf
