For a minute I did see an issue with some stuck duplicating processes that took down the system but I implemented pid file control and max execution time limits to solve that problem. A couple of other issues I need to work out, are repeated abrupt system shutdowns (power off) going to be an fsck nightmare, and it seems there is an issue with some things I need to start on boot not starting probably because of a lag in initial wireless connection. I just need to rethink those programs a bit, while avoiding the use of cron. here's disk info with USB connected thumb drive on B+, when I get a #2 up and running next week I can post that info as well. # diskinfo -tv /dev/da0 /dev/da0 512 # sectorsize 15504900096 # mediasize in bytes (14G) 30283008 # mediasize in sectors 0 # stripesize 0 # stripeoffset 1885 # Cylinders according to firmware. 255 # Heads according to firmware. 63 # Sectors according to firmware. 070145E2E7B25A46 # Disk ident.
