I felt like being tidy tonight. When I got home after having dinner with liz4jc4ever and Paula, I poked around on the computer for a little while and called my dad to wish him a happy (56th) birthday. Then I did some cleaning. My computer room is slightly tidier, as is my kitchen and my living room. I didn’t get a chance to get to tidying up the bedroom as much as I would have liked to. At least I feel like I can live here again without going nuts.
Tomorrow my motherboard and CPU for my server upgrade should arrive, so I expect I’ll spend a fair chunk of tomorrow evening playing with that, hopefully enough to get it operational to the point that I can start installing software on it Saturday morning, but I’m not sure. I think I’m going to have to get it up and running with the 8.5GB drive for booting (as it is now) so I can put the 20GB drive into my temporary server (which currently doing DNS, email and DHCP) and copy data over to the new 160GB drive, since I can’t seem to get FreeBSD to recognize partititions on the 20GB drive (and I don’t want to risk losing what’s there). It shouldn’t take too long to get it operational enough to do an SCP, and once that’s done I can remove the 8.5GB drive and put the 20 in.
Events I’d like to see this theatre season…
