It never fails…the server will ALWAYS crash once a year, while I’m off in Oregon.

This year was pretty spectacular…and has required a move to a totally new machine. It also happened on January 1st, according to the system logs, which isn’t such a good omen.

However, I want to say I love the ability to plug the drives into a new machine, boot it up and go. Windows can suck my balls. We’re running two 100GB drives in an LVM configuration, using SGI’s filesystem (XFS). It almost brings a tear to my eye when I think of how far GNU/Linux has come since I first set up The Tribe on my personal workstation. So happy new years, y’all.

I’ll write up a more detailed description later…but suffice to say, we’re back.
