Lizard


Here's another picture from the Big Sur campout in March. This little fellow (along with many, many others like him) was sunning himself along one of the hiking trails.

It's just as I suspected. The Honda's ready to be picked up, with nothing having been done to it yet. Both the sunroof switch and the transmission rebuild kit are on backorder. At least they changed the oil. I'll get Loyal Reader Number Four to help me pick the car up on my way to work tomorrow morning.

LRN4 has spoken with both Loyal Reader Number Nine and her father this evening. Everything appears to be fine in both of their locations. She's been having a little trouble finding her dad at home, so she's glad to have finally gotten hold of him.

Time to do other things, like work on Moe. See you tomorrow.

What was the status on FrankenMoe when you left it last night? Is it recognizing all the memory? And why do you think we couldn't get Ubuntu to boot?
I liked the lizards. They're cool.

Oh, and your Folding@Home project never managed to download a data file. I looked this morning.

So much for that. I know they've been having problems in the last few days sending data to their Mac clients (read it on their message board), so I guess I'll just wait and see if it ever works.

FrankenMoe was working fine. I shut it down because there wasn't anything for it todo. I have no idea why Ubuntu wouldn't boot, but I suspect that it still wants more memory.

I didn't get the strange memory behavior figured out. I plan to swap sticks around - including using the third 128MB stick - and see if it ever gets to 256.

I think if we (a) get the 20MB hard disk reformatted as a Linux disk and (b) get the Ethernet card and a long Ethernet cable out of the garage, we can get FM completely set up as a working FreeNAS node. Having accomplished that, we can safely transplant it into Moe's case, using Moe's existing disks.
