The Ditto and the Glory
So while I was messing about with Faith (the server in the previous story), I decided that since I had only a W.A.G. as to what was wrong, I would set up another server to take over FTP just in case I couldn't fix it quickly enough.
So I fired up the box that I think used to be called Amelia (though it might have been Lina, since the two are identical twins) and started loading up Fedora. I called the new box Glory.* And about mid-way through the first install disk it folded up and died. I rebooted, started into the install, and SPLAT!!! with a CRC** error. And again. I checked all the cables. I checked the power supply. I checked the CPU fan. Um, shouldn't that be, like, spinning? Moved a stray power lead from here to there and all the Chemical Rubber Tree plants were banished for good. Er, the installed proceeded smoothly. * All the servers at our office are named after characters from Buffy.** Chemical Rubber Company.
