Upgrading my Soekris to FreeBSD 10

3 August 2014 in FreeBSD, Hi-Tech

In previous posts, I was talking about brainfucks I had when migrating OpenBSD from a version to another. I really love OpenBSD but this fed me up a couple of years ago. That’s why I decided to test and switch to FreeBSD. Which one I forgot to upgrade since a while and I decided to do it to see if it’s the same nightmare I encountered on OpenBSD. I was surprised by the simplicity of the upgrade and how things happens without any issues.

Seafile: can’t use client? Use webdav standard!

1 August 2014 in Debian, Hi-Tech, Linux, Web

Seafile is a Google Drive replacement. If you missed m’y previous blog post on it, you can find it here. I really like Seafile even if a search feature is missing :-(. Seafile client is unfortunately not an available solution on all software proposing a cloud connection for sharing files. Hopefully an alternative exists using Webdav protocol. It is not activated by default on Seafile but can easily be enable. Here is how to do it.

Systemd: how to debug a failed boot

28 July 2014 in Debian, Hi-Tech, Linux

I recently switched my laptop from InitV to Systemd. And things didn’t happened as expected. That’s why I need to deep dive into Systemd issues and understand why it wasn’t working. I got problems like this: Failed to get D-Bus connection: No connection to service manager. And hopefully I found very good documentations on Internet (and especially on Arch wiki). I’ve made a summary on my wiki if you want to know how to diagnose a Systemd issue.

18 June 2014 in Databases, Docker, Hi-Tech, Linux, Red Hat, SQL

I really like this kind of news, new versions of docker and RedHat: Docker 1.0: this is the first stable version after more than one year of development. This version is production ready and I will start using it asap. RedHat 7: this is a good news as the version 6 started to be a little bit old now. What’s new? MariaDB replace MySQL \o/ Docker integrated systemd XFS by default Kernel 3.
