Hi everybody, |
| 2 |

This doesn't seem to be my week. When I wanted to boot my Gentoo system |
| 4 |
this morning, Grub wouldn't load. I discovered pretty fast that I am |
| 5 |
experiencing a hard drive failure. My Samsung SP1604N quit on me. It's a |
| 6 |
total loss. I could boot with Knoppix which recognised three of the |
| 7 |
seven partitions and I could recover about 2GB of a total of 160GB. I |
| 8 |
don't know what knocked it out, maybe a dying fan and death by cruelsome |
| 9 |
heat. |

I'm afraid I can't keep the schedule and today's GLPV announcement will |
| 12 |
have to wait until I have recovered from the system loss. It will be |
| 13 |
some time until I have set up another system, hopefully with Gentoo. I |
| 14 |
hope you can forgive me this inconvenience ;-) |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
By the way, I lost most of my mails too. If you sent me anything |
| 17 |
important please send it again, since I will probably not be able to |
| 18 |
recover it. I had been in the process of setting up an IMAP server on a |
| 19 |
different machine but mails to tobias@×××××××××.de were retrieved from |
| 20 |
my ISP's pop server directly until today :-( |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Consider my GnuPG key void since I'm not sure I can recover it. Maybe |
| 23 |
it's among the stuff I recovered, maybe it isn't. I'll create a new one |
| 24 |
anyway. |
| 25 |
|

regards, |
