• Connecting to my Soekris 5501 Mon, Feb 28, 2011 First I would recommend snuggling up with your Soekris manual by the fire and getting out your corn cob pipe. Setting up console access.

• Bash hates people who use spaces Sat, Apr 26, 2008 Ok so I have lots of files… I can’t be responsible for keeping weird characters and spaces out of all of them can I? So what is a space using loser like me to do, well after penance, jump through hoops to make it work. So naively expecting this to work, instead I get this crap. sgw@terd /store/ebooks/pdfs $ for i in `ls ../*.rar`; do echo "$i"; done ../PDF Ebook Guide BSD Hacks 100 .

• Using RAID in OpenBSD Tue, Oct 23, 2007 Well anyone who is worth their oats is running raid right? I guess that depends on your definition of anyone, what a bunch of nub sauces. Ok so it’s my first real attempt at doing it, I only have two disks and most of my media however much I may not think so right now is disposable. Compile a new kernel since Theo leaves raid out by default: $ cd /usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/ $ cat /usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC.
