It's not really that hard, if you know what you're doing. You have to add the relevant daemons to /etc/mindi/deplist.txt, then run them by hand after you've booted from your Mindi CD. The question is, which daemons/files/whatever are needed? Just add them to deplist.txt and away you go. :) This is where Open Source comes into its own. If anyone here feels strongly enough - not just strongly enough to express a need but strongly enough to _do_ something about it - then they might even experiment with the source code. They might find a way to make Mondo do what they want. At that point, they might even tell the mailing list what they did, to give the devteam the chance to implement it in code for them. *winks* How cool would that be? -Hugo |

You can also just mount a NFS share, but Mondo supports it directly. Why not SMB?

Forgive me if I missed something earlier in this thread, but you can already back up directly to a samba share (and I suppose a windows share too). You just have to mount it, then tell mondoarchive to make iso files in the mounted samba share. Of course, to restore, you have to burn the iso to CD. Restoring from the samba share with nothing but a boot cd is the hard part. I guess that is what is being discussed. -- Mark W.

Please be specific. Which versions of Mondo and Mindi are you running? Also, which Linux distro are you running? Finally, what does your original, backup-time copy of /var/log/mondo-archive.log look like - the one which mondoarchive generated? -Hugo |

If so, how do you suggest we go about it? I like the idea but someone has to _implement_ it. The source code has been available for 4 years but no-one has added native SMB support. That means one of the following:- 1. No-one can be bothered to do it. 2. No-one has been paid enough to do it. 3. No-one is technically capable of doing it. Does anyone on this mailing list feel like implementing native SMB support? -Hugo |

Whoops, I missed the SHM option in the kernel. I had tmpfs but not shm. I think that is the problem.

Machine has 1GB of memory. I have compiled in Memory FS and support for initrd with 16384MB of memory. Running Mondo & Mindi as of the current release today from your website.

-------- first line --------- Hi there Extracted additional /dev entries OK. mount: Mounting /dev/shm on /tmp/tmpfs failed: Invalid argument Failed. I could not run 'mount /dev/shm -t tmpfs -o size=48m /tmp/tmpfs'. Your kernel is BROKEN or you do not have enough RAM. Failed to mount /tmp/tmpfs; using ugly softlink instead Interesting. Would you care to explain the above?

Space can be an issue, but what difference is that from using: mondoarchive -OiNF -d /mnt/nas_backup -E /mnt/nas_backup I was just asking if Mondo can be changed to use SMB/CFIS in addition to NFS since SMB/CFIS is so popular.

It boots up but then crashes on a fatal error. The release I used is the latest (3/31/04) for both Mondo & Mindi..Here's a snippet of the problem: --------------------------------end of output------------------------------ ...ran with errors. mv -f tmp/mondo-restore.cfg /tmp/tmpfs/mondo.tmp.31286/tmp/mondo-restore.cfg mv: unable to rename `tmp/mondo-restore.cfg': No such file or directory --------------------------------end of output------------------------------ Is this something I can fix or is it a problem with the release? |

Sorry, you just went over my head. When I look at /usr/src, I see "linux 2.4.20-8". So, you are saying that this is not linux?

I asked about Samba support on the forum and it was suggested I bring the topic here. I use a linksys EFG120 nas box for backups. But, it only supports Samba and not NFS. So, to use Mondo, I have to pre-mount the samba share and then exclude the mounted directory from the backups. It works, but it would be easier to use if Samba links could be used directly from Mondo in a way similar to the NFS support. -- Tony Thigpen |

I know your setup is not Ideal, however if the system runs it should work with mondo. If there is just enough sanity to have a system run with hda6 as root than there should be enough info for mondo and or mindi to work fine.
