Baptop gets para virtual and another trie with Nexenta

September 14th, 2008 Comments off

After doing converting one of my servers (baptop) from a laptop to Virtual Machine on Xen with full virtualization it didn’t work too fast. Virtual environment was too penalizing. It was less reactive and when calling ( it hosts Asterisk for VoIP )  sometime you we could hear each other for a few seconds.

Now, after failed play with Nexenta Core and Xen DomU, I decided to have a go at para virtualizing the baptop. After a few kernel versions and config files … it works. Still without console but works. Great!

I really wanna try that Debian on Solaris kernel called Nexenta. Unfortunately it looks that it can’t do DomU and ZFS_ROOT at the same time. I have filled a bug report with Nexenta.

Monza 2008 get Vettel

Monza, apparently not often in rain conditions, brought us Vettel’s first Grand Prix win.

It was comming,  you could see that Torro Rosso are getting up the ladder. They definately started to outpace Red Bull , their sister team. And now Vettel thanks to, what looks like his favourite, wet conditions snatches the win.

Great days to watch the Formula 1, new drivers are doing their job!

Rain brings joy for Spa GP

September 8th, 2008 Comments off

The Belgian Grand Prix 2008 has been amazing.

Start where almost all cars were wheel spinning was an breath taking moment.

But the biggest surprise was rain just before finish. Hamilton versus Raikkonen battle was just one great piece of extremely good driving.

Stewards didn’t see that, stupid.
