Re: [Sheflug] ReiserFS and /boot

[Barrie Bremner <nospam [at] ecosse.net>]

 OK fixed it. The problem seemed to be that I had a disk at /dev/hda
that was throwing LILO. Once I had booted /dev/hde, written LILO I could
then stick /dev/hda back on the system, and we're all happy.

 Excellent.

 One little thing left to sort... what is 'OR' in scripts?

 I'm used to using '||' or 'OR' in other languages - but I'm not sure
what scripts use.
The reason I ask is that on boot my RH system routinely fsck's / before
remounting it in rw mode, except if it is an nfs disk:

if [ -z "$fastboot" -a "$ROOTFSTYPE" != "nfs" ];

I'd like to change it to

 [...] if !="nfs" OR !="reiserfs" 

 but after all the time I've just spent sorting the system out, I don't
relish the idea of killing my init scripts!

 Cheers.

 Baz.
