@Archemar Why? I mean, is there any reason why having a Windows installation on a partition that is numerically between Linux partitions is a bad idea?
Windows is better on its own machine, probably. It doesn't play nice with others.
Or best, not at all.
Actually, a VM would be a reasonable option, if it's not going to be used too often. I think VirtualBox supports it. I remember using a Windows VB image once.
> All sizes are output in these units: human-(r)eadable with '<' rounding indicator, (h)uman-readable, (b)ytes, (s)ectors, (k)ilobytes, (m)egabytes, (g)igabytes, (t)erabytes, (p)etabytes, (e)xabytes. Capitalise to use multiples of 1000 (S.I.) instead of 1024. Custom units can be specified, e.g. --units 3M.
But I'm pretty sure I specified a round figure when creating these LVs.
@Braiam Sadly, there are a lot of candidates for that. Half the programs I start spew low level errors.
There seem to be a lot that look like:
Sandbox: attempt to open unexpected file /proc/self/maps
Now all I need is a utility to count number of duplicate lines, and sort them by number. And then find the energy to actually do something about it.
A search suggests that one is from Firefox.
So it turns out my hosting provider is not willing to provide Debian 11 OpenVZ templates after all.
> I spoke with our engineer staff and they have informed me that they are unwilling to add new templates to our OpenVZ platform, citing it's Legacy status, and that adding new templates to old kernels doesn't always work out. The official stance of the company is that we will fix things if they are broken, but will not be adding any new features to our OpenVZ platform.
(it's -> its. A very common mistake.)
I guess I'll ask them how they define Legacy status, and whether they can offer any good alternatives for Debian 11. I guess I could live with Debian 11 for a while, if I have to.
@Braiam Thanks for the suggestion. I was actually just trying that. Actually, sort .xsession-errors | uniq -dc. But it doesn't sort the lines by the largest number of matches. Though I suppose I could do a second sort. That file seems to include an incredible amount of garbage, though. Am I the only one who is seeing this?
You mean set up my own VM in the Netherlands? Hardly practical.
It kind of needs to be outside India for security reasons. The risk of my personal information getting leaked in India is too high. And no, I don't encrypt my data. Doing Mercurial pushes with encryption is probably not possible, anyway.
@Braiam Something like OpenVZ/LXC/LXD might work for me and should be cheaper than a fully virtualized solution. If you can find hosting providers that support that, let me know. I haven't spent a lot of time searching, but I haven't found anything else.
@Braiam theguardian.com had extensive coverage of the blood clotting issue.
Though I've not kept up with their coverage.
If one sticks "oxford vaccine blood clotting site:theguardian.com" one gets a bunch of hits.

This system would allow for you to perform distribution upgrades as needed, as well as being able to directly download an image of your instance that is directly portable to any other provider that supports the qcow2 disk image format.
I'm not sure what to make of this. I didn't see anything like this in their offering. I guess more questions are in order. At least the rep actually answers questions, unlike here.
