Has anyone gotten this script to work? In my case, the device name happened to be /dev/mapper/vg-home, so I had to manually create /dev/mapper for the mknod to work. I also had to specify the fstype, but now I am seeing the below error:

mount: /dev/mapper/vg-home is not a valid block device


Got it working. The problem was that /dev/mapper/vg-home was a symbolic link so stat wasn't giving the right major and minor numbers, so once I fixed that it worked well.


Very cool! Is there any security risk in running nc on the gateway this way?

In my last job, I used colinux with Windows 7 and it was a match made in heaven. But when I moved, I had to choose the next best thing, which is Mac OS X, because of lack of support for 64-bit windows.


Very useful, fun and even has research value. Draw a circle and find a lot of emoticons. I couldn't find any of the letters from my mother tongue though, hopefully they will be added.


A lot of people don't know that you can move the cards around so that you can arrange two cards to be right next to each other, if you could speed up your workflow that way. I also don't like how you have to keep the home button pressed pon android, may be it is just my phone, but I would rather have an instant response to pressing home button rather than a timed one.


You can use jVi plugin that automatically enables vi bindings on text boxes.
