  • I don’t think it’s clear that they are not trying to minimize civilian casualties, it’s hard to imagine a more targeted attack than the pager attack.

    I don’t know what the numbers are like for the Lebanon part of the war, obviously, but in almost all modern conflicts we see that between 25 and 80% of casualties are civilians. I imagine we’re on the high end here as hezbollah like to fight and hide amongst civilians and use them as shields.

    I struggle to see how you can combat such an organization without heavy civilian casualties, no matter how you go about it. I’m not saying the Israelis are not making mistakes or even being disproportionate at times, but I just can’t see how you’re going to fight hezbollah without heavy collateral damage.














  • Don’t do that.

    Coming from non-linux, it’s not usually a problem. But now I know better :)

    fstab is just a config file so the computer knows what drives and storage volumes its supposed to have when it boots.

    You can add and remove drives without ever editing fstab. Plugging something in should give you the option to mount it in your file explorer, and in the same place you should be able to “eject” it before disconnecting the actual cable.

    I know that, but this particular drive was meant to be permanently mounted and accessible, which is why I added it to fstab. I am removing it because it’s damaged and i have to replace it with something which isn’t to act as a permanent drive for the server.

    Thank you for your help :)



  • It’s mounted to /srv which is not empty, and I can also still browse some of the folders on the removed drive, which is also confusing :) I don’t understand how that’s even possible.

    Edit: It does not show up as a drive, but the mount directory is still there with a folder structure and a single file.

    Edit2: I deleted the folder which seems to have done the trick. Still confused about how and why it was still accessible…
