Bug with grub2-signed on UEFI while install some of Linux OS

BUG: grub-efi-amd64-signed failed to install into /target/

FIXES:

1) enable network in during installation process (worked for me)

2) for some systems (for ex. Mint 16) - run 

sudo dpkg --remove-architecture i386

3) Suggestion from ubuntu forum (old untested)

If you are installing using pendrive just modify the filename "grub-efi-amd64-signed_1.9~ubuntu12.04.4+1.99-21ubuntu3.10_amd.deb" in directory /pool/main/g/grub2-signed/ by adding 64 at last before ".deb"

--- Updated 4 Jun 10 - The gpt partitioning scheme can have 128 partitions inside. No good for the 32-bit MS Windows but alright for Linux with Grub2. More details available here. --- Updated 8 Apr 09, Good news! kernel 2.6.28 and newer have finally decided to support large partitions. A report is here. I have managed to run a Ubuntu from sda130! Currently I am trying a 1.5 TB hard disk with 60 partitions and will report the progress later. The new kernel 2.6.28 is not universally

DHCP client conf gentoo

Problem:

dhcpd sends not valid option to dhcp server (hardware uid for example) when we need a hardware mac-address

Solution:

nano /etc/dhcpcd.conf

comment "duid" line

uncomment "clientid" line

restart dhcpcd

net-setup $int ($int - interface, if you need to configure interface)

Deploing flask app on Debian server

!!! Check your app dependences

1.  Create virtualhost in apache2 with name flaskapp for example

sudo nano /etc/apache2/site-available/flaskapp

and paste

<VirtualHost *> ServerName yourdomain.com ServerAlias www.yourdomain.com WSGIDaemonProcess flaskapp user=www-data group=www-data threads=5 WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/flaskapp/flaskapp.wsgi <Directory /var/www/flaskapp> WSGIProcessGroup flaskapp WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL} AllowOverride All Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory> ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log LogLevel warn CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined </VirtualHost>

2. After you done with it put your flask app into /var/www

3. Create wsgi script

sudo nano /var/www/flaskapp/flaskapp.wsgi 

and paste

import sys sys.path.insert(0, '/var/www/flaskapp') from app import app as application

4. Create symlink 

ln -s /etc/apache2/site-avaliable/flaskapp /etc/apache2/site-enabled/flaskapp

Dont forget about rights on flaskapp folder (chmod 755 preferd with owner : www-data and group : www-data)

Restart apache2 and start fix something :)

ntfs on GENTOO

Today i installed support ntfs on my lovely gentoo =)

Installing ntfs3g driver 

At first you need to add FUSE support in kernel 

File systems ---> <*> FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) support

sys-fs/ntfs3g udev suid

Then 

emerge -av ntfs3g

Configure fstab for auto mount partition 

In the beginning create folder in /mnt , for example /mnt/Dfolder.

Then you need to configure your fstab file. Here is my configuration for example

/dev/sda3               /mnt/Dfolder    ntfs-3g        users,locale=ru_RU.UTF8,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 **

/dev/sda2               /mnt/Windows    ntfs-3g         users,locale=ru_RU.UTF8,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0

As you can see i have 2 ntfs partition : 1 for file storage and 1 with sucking os =)

REBOOT and enjoy.

**/dev/sdaX - partition 

/mnt/some_folder - mount point

users - Access for non Root-Users

locale=ru_RU.UTF8 - it's doesn't want to work for some strange reason

uid=1000,gid=1000 -To make a user/group own everything on the ntfs drive. A User's ID and GID can be found with command: id your_username

Apache in Gentoo

In post "emerge world 13.11.2012" i wrote that installation of apache is done by one command... i lied. It isnt so ease . In the beginning i thought so but when i was tried to start apache i saw only error message. I don't remeber what the message said so i just write how to install apache without error.

Before start make sure that you had added necessary USE flags in your make.conf.

...

APACHE_USE="ssl ldap dev-lang/php apache2 berkdb bzip2 cgi cli

crypt ctype curl gd gdbm ftp iconv imap hash ldap mhash mysql 

ncurses nls pcre posix readline reflection session snmp sockets 

spell spl ssl suhosin truetype unicode xml xsl zip zlib yaz" 

...

USE="... ${APACHE_USE} ..."

OK, now we can start to emerge

emerge -av apache

Then 

dispatch-conf 

You can read about it here http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Dispatch-conf

After that run server to test

/etc/init.d/apache2 start

You probably will see next message

* Starting apache2 ...

AH00557: apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for Gentoo

AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1. Set the 'ServerName' directive globally to suppress this message

 * start-stop-daemon: failed to start `/usr/sbin/apache2'

You just need to edit hosts

nano /etc/hosts

find

# IPv4 and IPv6 localhost aliases

127.0.0.1       localhost

change to

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost your_hostname

where "your_hostname" in /etc/conf.d/hostname

UPD.

nano /etc/conf.d/apache2

add -D PHP5 to APACHE2_OPTS

save.

Then

nano /etc/apache2/modules.d/40_mod_ssl.conf 

find Mutex file:

and change to

Mutex file:/run/apache_ssl_mutex ssl-cache

don't forget 

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

=)

[alexmerser]

The end of emerge

After emerge world i had i broken udev.

start-stop-daemon: /sbin/udevd does not exist  Failed to start udev  ERROR: udev failed to start

Just do next steps:

1.

mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/gentoo/  mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/gentoo/boot  mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev  mount -t proc proc /mnt/gentoo/proc

2. 

chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash  env-update

3.

etc-update

Then i put -3 and replace all just say "yes" to all qestions

The next part is rebuild linux kernel with new options

CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT=y

Device Driver --> Generic Driver Options 

* Maintain a devtmpfs filesystem to mount at /dev

   * Automount devtmpfs at /dev, after the kernel mounted the rootfs

REBOOT

emerge world 13.11.2012

Hello everyone. Today i was trying to install lamp on my gentoo linux =) First of all i installed apache by one command in terminal

#emerge -av apache

Next step was installing Mysql. It isn't difficult to.

#emerge -av mysql

! U must to change your hostname from localhost to another.

#nano /etc/conf.d/hostname

I choose "Gentoo" =) and then just:

#emerge --config mysql

After those steps i decide to install php and phpmyadmin... and stuck.

The message from emerge was like next

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:  Calculating dependencies  ... done!  !!! The ebuild selected to satisfy "dev-lang/php[crypt,ctype,filter,json,session,unicode]" has unmet requirements.  - dev-lang/php-5.3.13::gentoo USE="berkdb bzip2 cli (consolekit) crypt ctype exif fileinfo filter gdbm hash iconv ipv6 json (multilib) nls phar (policykit) posix readline session simplexml spell ssl tokenizer truetype unicode xml zlib -apache2 -bcmath -calendar -cdb -cgi -cjk -curl -curlwrappers -debug -doc -embed -enchant -firebird -flatfile -fpm (-frontbase) -ftp -gd -gmp -imap -inifile -intl -iodbc -kerberos -kolab -ldap -ldap-sasl -libedit -mhash -mssql -mysql -mysqli -mysqlnd -oci8-instant-client -odbc -pcntl -pdo -pic -postgres -qdbm -recode -sharedmem -snmp -soap -sockets -sqlite -sqlite3 -suhosin (-sybase-ct) -sysvipc -threads -tidy -wddx -xmlreader -xmlrpc -xmlwriter -xpm -xsl -zip"    The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:      truetype?

After over9999 manipulation with USE flags and searching via google i had  no ideas what to do with this shit.

I had only one way out... EMERGE WORLD!!!

So...

#emerge --sync

#emerge -auDNv world

and i started to pray to Linus Torvalds...

First problem i had with help2nam

The error was like next one

configure: error: perl module Locale::gettext required  !!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report:  !!! /var/tmp/portage/help2man-1.33.1/work/help2man-1.33.1/config.log  !!! ERROR: sys-apps/help2man-1.33.1 failed.  !!! Function econf, Line 485, Exitcode 0  !!! econf failed  !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. 

Simple way to solve this problem is:

#emerge -av dev-perl/Locale-gettext

That's all for now =) I will writing about all results of emergin my Gento_0 after its end.
