fedora 29 trying to mount missing disk
by doug.lindquist＠atlanticbb.net
I replaced a hd lately because I needed more space. It was encrypted with
LUKS. I removed the line from crypttab for the old disk. now when I boot
it tries to mount the old hd too. is there another file that needs changed?

trying to identify file (if any) corresponding to LBA
by Andre Robatino
I'm running 64-bit F29 using the default LVM, but with no separate home partition. Today smartctl reported that "Current_Pending_Sector" and "Offline_Uncorrectable" increased from 0 to 1. Running a self-test failed almost immediately with
Num Test_Description Status Remaining LifeTime(hours) LBA_of_first_error
# 1 Extended offline Completed: read failure 90% 42494 3299402936
I'm trying to follow the instructions in https://www.smartmontools.org/wiki/BadBlockHowto . Fdisk gives
[root@lenovo-pc ~]# fdisk -lu /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 1.8 TiB, 2000398934016 bytes, 3907029168 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0xc3017146

/dev/sda5 538972160 3907028991 3368056832 1.6T 8e Linux LVM
[root@lenovo-pc ~]#
so the bad LBA is in both sda4 and sda5. Trying tune2fs to find the block size gives
[root@lenovo-pc ~]# tune2fs -l /dev/sda4 | grep Block
tune2fs: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open /dev/sda4
Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock.
[root@lenovo-pc ~]# tune2fs -l /dev/sda5 | grep Block
tune2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda5
[root@lenovo-pc ~]# tune2fs -l /dev/mapper/fedora-root | grep Block
Block count: 419037184
Block size: 4096
Blocks per group: 32768
[root@lenovo-pc ~]#
so I'm guessing that the block size is 4096. In computing the problem block, I'm not sure whether to use /dev/sda4 or /dev/sda5. Also, if I run debugfs, it doesn't allow me to open either device, so at this point I'm not sure how to identify either the inode or file (if there is one) corresponding to the block. Can anyone help?

f29 iso customization : value of inst.stage2 and iso re-packaging
by Adrian Sevcenco
Hi! I would like to customize the iso net-install of f29
by pointing the inst.stage2 to a local http location but i do not find
a reliable point of information ...
looking over
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/f29/install-guide/advanced/Bo...
i see :
"This option expects a path to a directory containing a valid .treeinfo
file; the location of the runtime image will be read from this file if
found. If a .treeinfo file is not available, Anaconda will try to load
the image from LiveOS/squashfs.img."
but the f29 net-install image does not have .treeinfo file, not LiveOS
directory nor squashfs.img (it have an install.img)
So, how can i point inst.stage2 to a location containing install.img?
Also, i fail to find a method to repackage back the iso..
Any idea if the el7 method (with mkisofs) would work the same ?
Thank you!
Adrian

I edited the schema file, which I then recompiled and it now works.
No actual zoom as I suspect
the authors pulled that part of the code.

Problems with plank settings app
by Frank McCormick
In installed the dock plank on my Fedora 29 installation this morning,
then found
a python-based plank settings app.
However it does not work with Fedora's version of plank (0.11.4).
The settings app gives this error:
(planksetting.py:6935): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 12:41:28.299: Settings schema
'net.launchpad.plank.dock.settings' does not contain a key named
'zoom-enabled'
/usr/bin/planksetting14: line 1: 6935 Trace/breakpoint trap (core
dumped) python3 /usr/share/planksetting/planksetting.py
I suspect it's related to Apples threat to Plank developers over use of
the icon zoom property
which the fruit company has apparently patented ?? Plank is reported to
have removed the zoom option,
Is there a work around? I don't particularly care about the zoom
function eye-candy but
it would be nice to be able to use the settings app.
Thanks

Feature request : Vivaldi
by Beartooth
I tried installing Vivaldi from its own site, used it a few
weeks, and liked it immensely. Then I happened to discover that it was
not available via dnf. With copious bad memories of dependency hells, and
despite great reluctance, I gave it up. I still miss it. Couldn't it be
added to one or another of the Fedora repos??
