I get the impression that your preferred not-English is Troll, but I was expecting a set of translations to a north European language.
Oh well, I suppose Troll makes a change from Klingon
16 GB ePiC SD Backup Gone WrongTue, 05 Dec 2023 08:39:50 -0000
I’m wondering whether the boot status of the system hadn’t been copied across.
That Supervisor prompt and the “minimalist desktop” is typical of a system that isn’t configured to boot from the available file system.
Does it just need that setting with the usual commands:
Configure FileSystem <filesystem-name> Configure BootMemory allocation woes

Everyone has to suck up the code reviews these days.
It was ever thus.
I can’t recall anyone ever being mega critical about my style, but then the audience is severely limited1 so that’s normal.
1 Very, very severely limited.
ROD's new TCP/IP stack.Tue, 05 Dec 2023 08:25:12 -0000
It would be good to know if these problems go away, on the new stack, if IPv6 is disabled.That appears to be the case, yes.
Well, at least the issue doesn’t appear to be in a critical part of the stack, so testing of other aspects and the stack generally can continue with IPv6 off.

Is this related to the IPv6 startup crashiness?
No. That’s a separate problem that I’m going to look at myself.

It sounds like when you did the copy of the ePic card, you only copied the FAT partition, not the whole SD card.

In Texas USA they are working towards mass producing a fuel that you can use in diesel/ petrol engines.
There are hundreds of projects around the world (the Fischer-Tropsch process was invented in Germany and used mainly during WWII) to produce “liquid carbons” from other sources of carbon than oil. Commonly called “XtL”, usual variants are BtL, CtL and GtL. But you can also do it from “air”, because of CO2. You “only” need energy, everything else is advanced chemistry. Heat also is helpful, this is why high temperature nuclear reactors were often cited to help us when we run out of oil. Well, that didn’t happen yet.
With Germany’s current insanity called “Energiewende”, we aim for installed capacities of around 400GW of PV and a further 400GW of wind, while having a typical maximum grid power demand of 50-80GW. So we will create A LOT of surplus electricity (some of the time) to produce e.g. CH4, and of course we could also produce liquid carbons from that huge amount of too-much-electricity. It will be interesting to see if that kind of subsidized-to-zero-cost energy will be enough to produce competitive fuel prices.
Memory allocation woesMon, 04 Dec 2023 23:31:12 -0000
When I posted the assembler, it wasn’t for a critique of my coding style,
That might not be what you want, but that’s what you are going to get!

It is caused by some IPv6 Multicast Listener Report messages.

I think it’s supposed to be something like ammonia.
So, remember, your morning pee goes into the fuel tank, not the toilet.

More progress. A thoroughly plausible mechanism for the interruptions to ShareFS has been identified. It is caused by some IPv6 Multicast Listener Report messages.
