You might have noticed that this blog has been off the air (or wires, or pipes, or however you want the think of it) for a little while. Seems like the day after we left to go on hols the server decided that it had had enough and threw a bit of a wobbly. Actully, I think the hard drive died. Bugger. It would happen then, wouldn’t it!<\/p>\n
I’d kind of been expecting it for a while really, as that disk was an old one before I put it in that box, and it’s been on pretty much 24\/7 for a long, long time. So I had been doing a few random backups of various bits and pieces on in, including the blog. The last one I did was on the 15th of March, so I think we only lost one entry, and a few of the books I took on holiday. But if you registered after that date, you’ll need to do that again. Sorry!<\/p>\n
But hopefully we’re back up and running now… I hope!
\nAnd I’ll be taking more regular backups now!<\/p>\n
For those (few) of you who may be interested in some more techy stuff, I’ve ditched the Gentoo install on this server, and done with the latest Debian distro. I just couldn’t face another 4 weeks of compliing everything again if I’d reinstalled Gentoo. I’m sure there are still lots of things missing on the box, but at least the webserver is up and running again…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
