There are two topics I would like to describe here, for later reference (by myself, of course. This blog is my extended memory). The first is about how to create a bootable ISO out of RHEL extracted ISO, and the other is about how to download only specific update, or make your own RHEL updates…
I have had a problem with RPI Zero. The system was working fine, and then it did not. I am using Raspbery Linux (Debian-based) with kernel 5.10.17+. Once a while (usually with network load) the system loses connectivity. Everything seems to be fine, if you have a serial/USB console there, but the wireless network fails….

Using large pools with many disks will result in a mess, where it’s hard to identify which disk is which, and going to a translation table from time to time, to identify a suspect slow disk….
I have had an interesting experience with HPE servers, where the BIOS was defined to allow max performance (in contrast to ‘balanced’ mode), but still – the CPU was not at max all the time. While we generally, strive to a greener computing, when having low-latency workload, we expect a deterministic performance. We want our…
With the update to version 8 (or, if to be accurate, according to common documentations, 8.3 and above), VNC configuration has had a major overhaul, and it is entirely different. Most documentations will refer to using ‘gnome’ as the desktop manager, however – if you want something lightweight with minimal impact (both package-wise and performance-wise),…
This is a problem which bugs the Internet. Many solutions were suggested. All of them work sometimes (like making sure that the permissions on the private/public SSH key files are correct). One solution which never gets mentioned is about DNS. When attempting login to a remote server, the server attempts to resolve the connecting address…
