I’ve been putting off this process at work for too long, but now something happened that made me have to do it… the process of migrating from an NFS-mounted /usr/local to an actually local /usr/local. It’s an automated process… I just didn’t know it would take over two hours… and it’s still going. So while it was going, I decided I’d pull out my laptop and the “karaoke machine” a.k.a. my FireWire hard drive…
…which is now refusing to be recognized by any of the computers I plug it in to. WTF!? It just decided randomly to stop working. I have to wait until I get home, then I can try the USB port… and if that doesn’t work, I might have to try directly installing it into my laptop to see if it was the hard drive or the enclosure. At this point, I don’t know which I’d rather it be… the enclosure, I guess, then I won’t have to reinstall all the stuff onto the hard drive.
