  • How to speed up rsync/tar of large Maildir

    - by psusi
    I have a very large Maildir I am copying to a new machine ( over 100 BaseT ) with rsync. The progress is slow. VERY SLOW. Like 1 MB/s slow. I think this is because it is a lot of small files that are being read in an order that essentially is random with respect to where the blocks are stored on disk, causing a massive seek storm. I get similar results when trying to tar the directory. Is there a way to get rsync/tar to read in disk block order, or otherwise overcome this problem?

  • cannot mount root filesystem on 10.04

    - by howaryoo
    I tried to apply the recommendation of question: Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) After running that command: sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev I get this error message: mount: mount point /mnt/dev does not exist fdisk -l returns /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda5 do I need to mount sda2 and sda5? Edited after @psusi's comment: /dev/sda1 is the boot file system It seems that I need to mount sda2 or sda5. Here is what I tried: (I tried this on a virtual machine so the sda(s) are now vda(s) ) ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l Disk /dev/vda: 19.3 GB, 19327352832 bytes 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 37449 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x0008eece Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/vda1 * 3 496 248832 83 Linux Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. /dev/vda2 498 37448 18622465 5 Extended Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary. /dev/vda5 498 37448 18622464 8e Linux LVM ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/vda5 /mnt mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/vda5, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t ext2 /dev/vda5 /mnt mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/vda5, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ Any info that can help me rescue that server would be greatly appreciated!
